This bright, airy, Greater Grand Crossing cafe specializes in large breakfasts and a wide variety of po'boys, sandwiches, salads and dinner plates. Wholegrain wheat bread allows you to somewhat justify the Turkey Cristo, even though it's stuffed with turkey and American and Swiss cheese, then battered, fried and dusted with powdered sugar. Dinner plates include country fried wings, catfish nuggets and fried tilapia.
