Brunch and Ballet

This weekend Whitney and I, along with Sabrina and Megan, will engage in one of our most favorite of hobbies: Brunch. The hard part will come in deciding where to go. Blue Bird Bistro or Westside Local? Both are in the same neighborhood and offer farm-to-market food. Both are in the same price range. Both have alcohol. Some decisions are hard.

As far as menu, there are similarities there too: they both have mushroom gravy, the both have the same salmon eggs benedict and a fancy sounding French Toast (Ciabatta or Apple Bread).

But since Brunch is a journey, not a destination I dived further into the menu and found an item on each that sounds appealing and a bit unique:

Blue Bird
Sweet potato AND GRANOLA PANCAKES   0900   half order 0600  freshly prepared with organic white wheat flour, Thane Palmberg Farm sweet potatoes, granola, and a touch of fresh cinnamon; served with pure maple  syrup from Shaker Mountain Farm 

Westside Local

Still doesn't make the decision any easier. 

After where-ever-we-go for lunch we'll be pirouetting over to the Kauffman Center to watch the Kansas City Ballet's production of Alice in Wonderland. We haven't said we're not wearing costumes, so, I still might pull out my Chesire Cat jumpsuit.
