Another Broken Egg, in a strip mall (where else?) at 9425 N. Meridian Street, is, sadly, not on the South side. If it was, you might not be able to get into the place for the line. I swear it seems like the South side is largely ignored by independent restaurateurs. Perhaps they are unwilling to challenge the chains which seem to dominate the landscape. Actually, I'm not certain that Another Broken Egg isn't also a franchise, come to think of it, but if it is, we need one down here.
The place is only a little pretentious, with a coffee bar that serves lattes and such, but the rest of it is modern and not ostentatious. The menu varies from moderate to upscale dishes, like $3.99 to $15.99, and they are all variations of classics, like City Grits and an Herb-infused Bloody Mary (alcohol, oh yeah!). The Little Woman and I split the Lobster Omelet Plate ($14.99) which was big enough for both of us to feel stuffed upon completion. It had more lobster crumbles in it than I would have expected, even given the stiff price, and it was deeeeeelicious! It also included a boatload of perfectly-cooked home fries. There was nothing not to like, except that it's all the way up at freakin' 96th & Meridian!
