Black Bean Omelet
It’s Back!
The tastiest, savoriest, wonderfulest (stop me before I keep inventing words) breakfast you will ever eat!
Black
Beans, sautéed with tomatoes, onions, and cilantro, topped with Manchego and a dollop of sour cream.
Scrumptious!!
Lamb In The Morning
Tender and succulent, sautéed with butter and maple syrup— like nothing I’ve ever eaten, and growing up our family raised sheep.
Special today at Carmen’s
Almost Gone
No wonder, it hits all the notes!
Rare Filet, Mushroom Jus, savory Potato Pancake with Scallions and Garlic, Grilled Veggies, and I almost forgot to mention the Eggs!
More than delicious, stupendous! It’s no wonder we are almost sold out already and it’s still Saturday morning!
