When we met our son last week, he took us to a new restaurant. He had been there several times on his trips to Winchester. Therefore, no recipe today except to a link to one we are thinking of making soon. It is a meatloaf recipe by The Barefoot Contessa.
I read: "Firefly Café and Bakery is owned and operated by NW Works, which is a non-profit dedicated to empowering individuals through meaningful employment." This link will give you more information. The menu can be read here.
I don't receive anything other than the pleasure I get passing along a place we enjoy. It has excellent reviews on Yelp and you can read those here.
This is the address to the organization mentioned above.
I enjoyed the wall art.
Also this one.
and this one.
We were there for the breakfast.
The three of us ordered an omelet (hubs) and ricotta pancakes (son and me). They were delicious and that bacon was the best I had tasted in any restaurant.
To top everything off the staff were nice and friendly.
Great company, great conversation, comfortable surroundings and excellent food. We are looking forward to going back and yes, highly recommended!
It looks and sounds delightful - and a big hooray for meaningful employment.
ReplyDeleteThank you EC and hurray indeed:)
DeleteIt looks like a lovely place. And the omelet looks so fluffy! I wish we lived closer to it!
ReplyDeleteMe too Ginny :) It is over an hour away for us.
DeleteI love that apple art!
ReplyDeleteMe too :)
DeleteNow that looks a great place to eat. To bad it is so far away from me!
ReplyDeleteIt really is. I know you've got a lot of great places I would enjoy going to :)
DeleteHummmm delicioso pequeno-almoço.

DeleteHello, the food looks delicious. The restaurant's mission sounds wonderful, I like the cute signs. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Eileen. So glad you liked the look of this place. Happy week to you also :)
Deletethe signs are very catchy and I'm sure they add to the business.
ReplyDeleteHi Red, they have a lot going for it :)
Deletethis is all very interesting, I love the name Firefly Café and what a great idea they have for helping employment.. the food looks wonderful and that is why it is a success..
ReplyDeleteThe name really catches people's interest. The food is why yes but their mission to help people is a draw also. I would give them my business just because of this.
DeleteLove good bacon, something we do not see in France ! So enjoyed it while we were away in RSA. Hope all is well, Diane
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting Diane, though I don't remember bacon on our trips to France :) All is well here thank you, and I hope the same for you :)
DeleteLooks like a fun time. Annie, the assistant baker, is a true cutie and obviously has a talent for baking.
ReplyDeleteIt was and she certainly is and does :)
DeleteI love the Barefoot Contessa!
ReplyDeleteThat's great, we have been following her for years ever since we started watching her TV show :)
DeleteFood looks and sounds wonderful the concept of the restaurant just as wonderful.
