Sunday morning dawned overcast and cool, as is often the case in San Francisco. Once Anita was awake, we headed over to Elite Cafe on Fillmore Street for breakfast. San Francisco is a breakfast city, a city awake early enough to enjoy its eggs an endless variety of ways.
One our way over, we passed the Webster Street fire station where the fire fighters were out for morning ladder drills.
Below, outside Elite Cafe
Elite is a New Orleans style restaurant, specializing in Cajun cuisine. For breakfast there were Bloody Marys, Arkansas scramble (eggs scrambled with bacon), corned beef hash, and beignets. No pictures of the beignets, I’m afraid. Ate them too quickly!
On the way back to the car, we passed a beautiful dog with a rather interesting haircut.
The results of some surgery? Or just an overzealous groomer?






Bloody Marys for breakfast? hahaha…I think I see some stitches on the dog.
Corned beef hash….my favourite!! Let’s have brunch as well!! *drool*
@ElusiveWords – Bloody Marys for brunch. Of course. It’s a Sunday.
@curry69curry – Curry, at the very least I’m expecting that we’ll do dinner Friday and brunch Sunday.
I was going to ask the same regarding the Bloody Marys! lol
Mmm…me want some corned beef has! And I prefer a good Mimosa for Sunday brunch. ^_^
ryc: oh, the name just sounds a bit too emotional for the “grown me”
@brooklyn2028 – Mimosas are very nice, too. Bloody Marys are really good with the cajun food, especially if they are spicy ones.
@Love_Eternal_Desire – Ah, I see. How about “All grown up and no longer pining away for love eternal desire”?
“San Francisco is a breakfast city, a city awake early enough to enjoy its eggs an endless variety of ways.” love that…*sigh* I must get back to SF for a visit.
That Bloody Mary looks amazing! Breakfast knows no better drink.
@absolutaaron – Well, once you’re in LA it should be much easier, right. There are some good breakfast places in LA, too.
@TheCheshireGrins – Amen – the breakfast you can drink. Lots of lycopine.
ha bloody mary for breakfast~
I must try a bloody mary for breakfast one day! The hair cut on the dog does look like from a surgery. Rocky had similar encounters with the shaver before his surgery.
Wow! That breakfast takes me back to my southern roots. Yum. On the top of my lists to eat at when we go there. And the dog’s clipping has to be from surgery. Note the gray muzzle. A much older, but beautiful dog.
@socaltransplant – Yeah, as I looked at it further, it obviously is from surgery. When I saw the dog on the street I didn’t realize, but then I’ve never been a dog owner.
