Why It’s deliciousness offered all day.
I admit to being occasionally perturbed when restaurants don’t offer their breakfast menus all day. Yeah, I get it—prep and waste and time and etc.—but that doesn’t mean I like it.
Thankfully, there are a handful of places that offer good breakfasts during dinner time, including Goody’s Café, the four-location local mini-chain with a large menu of diner-style offerings, sub sandwiches and Mexican entrées. While not everything on the menu is a home run, some items are—including, first and foremost, the stellar breakfast burrito.
Ham. Bacon. Sausage. Hash browns. Cheese—and an impressive three eggs, all wrapped in a large flour tortilla, with some salsa on the side. That’s all there is to this large burrito, but, really, what else does a breakfast burrito need? The meats add salt and a variety of flavors and textures; the hash browns provide earthiness and a little bit of moisture. The cheese contributes creaminess, and the eggs are simply a delight: Pro tip: Ask for an extra salsa or two, as dribbling it on the burrito as you devour it provides a helpful amount of moisture—and some nice spice, too.
One other great thing about the breakfast burrito, and the rest of Goody’s offerings as well: They’re easy to acquire, thanks to Goody’s four locations, presence on multiple delivery apps, and extended hours (all locations open at 5 a.m. and stay open until 9 or 10 p.m.).
Hooray for the opportunity to enjoy a delicious breakfast … for dinner!
