I've ventured out to a couple new breakfast restaurants that have been awesome. Egg and I is a national chain, but Sugarbakers is unique to San Antonio.
Finally! Something different for breakfast instead of heavy pancakes, greasy meats, and super sized omelets. Granted, Eggs Benedict aren't the healthiest breakfast out there, but it's not something on the menu at most places. I have been to a few of the San Antonio locations and the quality is consistent across the board. The Crabcake Benedict is something a little different, but order it without tomato. The measly slice doesn't add much and makes it hard to eat. I think my favorite thing so far is the Breakfast Sundae, which is a yogurt and fruit parfait with a side of toast and a poached egg. Their signature side that comes with everything are "ranch potatoes" - plain ranch style potato bits tossed with ranch-dressing-packet seasoning. To me, they don't taste like much and I prefer a side of fruit instead. There's still a lot of things on the menu that I'd like to try - omelets, scrambles. And that's only on the breakfast side of the menu! There are tons of sandwiches and salads served for lunch as well. This may be my new go-to breakfast place.
You really don't want to go healthy if you head to Sugarbakers off Basse Rd behind the Quarry Market. You'll miss out on their specialties! It's a local find that bakes everything on their menu right in their kitchen. Breakfast varies from omelets to french toast to quiche. The Caramel Apple French Toast is phenomenal. The Florentine Scrambler is good for someone who doesn't want a sugar overload in the morning. The biscuits are also fantastic. I plan to head back there to stock up with armloads of their baked goods. The cookies they had on display looked so tempting, but I was too full!
