11/3/18 bayside american cafe - portland, maine

6/10. good breakfast/brunch fare. good for the hankering and price, but not spectacular. i would come again if i lived in the area.

 eggs florentine. an eggs benedict dish. recommended by the waitress.
the sauce flavor is a bit overpowering... the potatoes... were ok.


i was referred to get the cinnamon bun pancake which i did. given my other dish, the waitress recommended the kid size. it was still big.
