We went to "Farmer's Bottega" on Washington Street (which is a very long street, but the restaurant is only a few minutes from Old Town HIE). I tend to get lost in SDiego once I get away from the region around VAM, so my friends picked a place I might find my way to without wandering for hours up and down the strange SDiego hills. The place was crowded at 10am on a Sunday, but we had a table quickly. I was very pleased with my Classic Benedict - Two poached eggs, Canadian bacon, house made hollandaise sauce with black beans and avocado. I could have licked the plate. My companions were not thrilled with the omelets, but the lady with the cereal and fruit seemed happy. I wonder if I could have ordered a side of the fruit which looked fresh and very tasty.

House made granola with fruit. 
We occupied their table for about two hours - until the waiter told us they could use the table for other guests. There is a patio out back and I suppose it was full up as was the dining room. We'd been long enough and went on our ways.
I used to go to "brunch" after I had seen my doctor, dentist, periodontist, etc., but with KoKo waiting at home, I rarely do it now. So, this was a special "event" and I did so enjoy having a long visit with three San Diego friends. Hope we can do it again someday.
Thanks to Nancy Ota who took KoKo back for the weekend whilst I was gallavantin'.
