Okay, I was planning to go and had looked up their menu online. But when we got there, they had a QR code for their brunch menu that had even fewer items than the brunch menu online. So we had to change what we were planning to get and my wife and I both picked the Country Fried Platter. You get your choice of a chicken fried “chicken” of a chicken fried “steak”. Wife got the “chicken” while I got the “steak”. Not real pictures of the insides but the steak was an appropriately darker color.
The eggs were okay once I put Tabasco on. My wife reminded me that once they get cold, they will be terrible (we ate at a vegan breakfast place in Brussels waaaay before I was plant based where I had a vegan English breakfast and yes, if they get cold at all, they are inedible) so I ate them first. Hashbrowns were crispy. At first, they seemed really sweet to me, but my wife pointed out the ketchup packets had no HFCS, just sugar. Maybe I’m getting really sensitive. Just put more Tabasco. My CFS I thought was really good. I wouldn’t mind having again. It wasn’t mushy. It was crisp and had toothsome bite. My wife gave a bit of a mixed review, “well if I didn’t know it was fake chicken, it would have tasted like any other school cafeteria.” Ouch. While she is not exactly on the plant based journey 24/7 with me, she mostly is, and has never really enjoyed fried foods even before, so she doesn’t really even enjoy CFCs.
But I enjoyed my meal. But yes, eat the eggs quickly. I saved a bit and yes, they are terrible even lukewarm.

I’m just sad by the lack of color and veggies
I often gravitate to Korny Vibes when I decide I want something indulgent. I love their CFS dinner with green beans and mashed potatoes.
Have you been to Ginger Mule? Highly recommended if you haven’t yet. (It’s the reincarnation of Verdine if you’re a longtime Houstonian.)
