Breakfast restaurant
👍👍 If I could give the service more than five stars, I would. Really cute family I think. Not sure if they’re actually related but the lady that runs it/mom is super ( call me ;) pretty. Also, they use real maple syrup so don’t get it twisted if you’re thinking, they use log cabin.
