All
for all the remaining marbles in the pot – what’s my favorite meal of the day? Anyone not say breakfast? There are many restaurants on Marco Island
and most of them serve tourist food – mediocre at high prices – so we’re always
looking for some good places - usually where the locals eat. So far, our
favorite breakfast haunt has been Hoot’s but we decided to give the Red Rooster
a try.
Like
many of the restaurants in Marco, it was in a strip mall and a relatively small
place.
Bev
had the Huevos Santa Fe containing chorizo, black beans, cheese, green chiles,
and eggs, sided with home fries, salsa, and sour cream.
Pat
had the Scrambled Egg Croissant special which had cheese and bacon and sided
with hash browns.
I
tried the Irish omelet which was stuffed with corned beef, onions, and Swiss
cheese sided with hash brown casserole and rye toast.
Total
cost of the meal was $30.50 (Bev and Pat drank just water) so we were paying
the somewhat higher Marco prices but not the even higher tourist prices and the
food was certainly above mediocre, so I walked away satisfied and would eat
there again.
And what do you do while sitting on your condo balcony in the evening, why watch a wedding of course.

Jim's favorite meal is definitely breakfast. I just like food. I was expecting a sunset photo when I scrolled down so was surprised to see the wedding picture.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say breakfast is my favorite meal, but it comes pretty close. Pat's eggs do look nice and fluffy. So many places overcook scrambled eggs that I rarely order them. But I always "test" their home fries.

Anyone who reads your blog KNOWS that breakfast is your favorite! I think everything you ordered looks great. I've never heard of an Irish omelet - it looks and sounds fantastic.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful white sandy beach - perfect for a wedding!
I think your Irish omelet looks unique and delicious. I think I would have ordered that. Thanks for sharing Larry.
ReplyDeleteLarry, I would go for Pat's breakfast! It looks like a nice place to get away from the snow birds...or at least there might be fewer of them than in the 'standard' places. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteAh---we've seen weddings at the beach where we go in North Carolina --from our porch.... Fun to watch...
ReplyDeleteI have always loved breakfast --but we seldom eat it out since it generally is the most fattening meal of the day... Out of your three dinners, I think Pat's breakfast definitely looked the best... YUM.
Hugs,

Pretty cool, of all the times we've been to Perdido, that is one thing we haven't seen on the beach.
