Oh, Amy’s. When I was an undergrad in the early 90s I lived two blocks off of Main on Merrimac, right down from Amy’s. Must have breakfasted there hundreds of times. Back before Amy sold the place, and when Ann was still waitressing. Now I understand that Ann herself has sold the place and gone to New England. I took Genya there last summer for some killer shawarma and eggs.
what about EBT, or the other place that is just like it but I can’t remember the name of and apparently you’re supposed to only go to one or the other even though I went to both?
Mmmm Amy’s Place! Sooo goooood. And warm and nice and cozy. And good music and good staff.
solid grounds is also good for breakfast. and pano’s is good too.
what’s EBT?
