Stray Dog Cafe

I enjoy having breakfast here with family and friends. I believe it is locally owned and the owner is so sweet and always walks around checking on the customers and helping her staff. One of their current specials (Nov. '22) is Banana Foster French Toast. I waited a whole week before coming back for some more. It is delicious!!!!

It was a very tasty meal. I got a cup of chili for a second side. It was good, but it was more of the Cincinnati-style chili that gets poured over spaghetti. It had no heat, and had a bit more ketchup or tomato paste flavor than the Texas style I like best, but it was, again, very good. Raegan had a BLT, which she had been craving, and liked it a lot. Afterward we shared some of the best chocolate pie we've had in a while. Everyone was friendly, the food was very good. It's unfortunately on the other side of town from where we live, but when we are in the area again we'll go back, there a
