because sometimes you need a midnight omelet. Remember, they still have their full menu, they just hide it, so you have to ask for it to access their omelets ;)

I wouldn't dare recommend this place unless there are only two of you going, you don't mind waiting outside for 30 minutes for a table, and you are okay with paying a little too much for moderately delicious food. It's very convenient to shopping and grocery stores, though, so it's a nice part of a errand-running morning.

Pretty good food, but go before or after the weekend rush, because they are always slammed. If you can sit at the bar, then that's a good bet, also!

Parks & Nature

$5 per person, but that fee pays for upkeep of God's majesty. There is a large playground, pavillions, tons of walking and biking trails, and beautiful overlooks. If you're adventurous, you could even walk to the park from my house, but it is long.
