Since a lot of my readers are in the Bay Area over the summer, I’d like to highlight an awesome breakfast place – a definite must-try if you’re in Berkeley. Cafe M is located at the Fourth Street shops, a swankier part of town nestled between the freeway and the more industrial areas of Berkeley – kind of like a diamond in the rough. I’ve been there twice now and the service and food have yet to disappoint.
If it’s your first time here, I have three words for you – Crab Cake Benedict. Two of the freshest, tastiest crab cakes over poached eggs topped with a wickedly delicious hollandaise sauce. If you’re over 21, may I also recommend the bottomless mimosas, apparently a secret menu item (their menu serves single glasses of mimosa). The OJ they use is fresh squeezed, and the waitresses are so nice and won’t hesitate to check up and make sure you’re enjoying your food and drinks.
This is the perfect place to enjoy a Sunday brunch or chat with your friends over some breakfast – I’d highly recommend checking it out.
