What can I say? This
classic Nashville Restaurant is one of the most popular dining spots in
town. You almost always have to wait for
a table. So who am I to say anything derogatory
about this establishment? So therefore I
can only agree with everyone else—the Lovelesss Café is a unique Nashville
Treasure.
It has been at least two years since I have dined at the
Loveless and that was an early evening dinner meal. This time our party arrived for a late
breakfast at 10 am on a Monday morning.
They would not seat us until all of our party of eight had arrived,
which is understandable. Everyone had
arrived by 10:15 and there was a 16 to twenty minute wait before we were
seated. Everyone chose a breakfast entree. The young folks chose the pancakes. My wife had the two eggs and bacon and I
chose the garden omelet. There’s not
much you can say about breakfast food like this. My omelet was good but nothing to get excited
about. What can you say about scrambled
eggs and bacon? Everyone else had similar
food and no one complained.
So what makes the Loveless Café breakfast so special? Well, it’s those darn biscuits. The waitress brought out two plates stacked
high with their world famous biscuits, served hot right out of the oven. There
were three choices of jams served—strawberry, blackberry and peach. You have to try each of the flavors and it is
hard to say which is best. I sat next to
my 4 year old grandson and had to cut open his hot biscuit and put on a sample
of each jam. He had to blow on the
biscuit to cool it down before he could put it into his mouth. But the smile on his young face after eating
that biscuit showed that there was a new and everlasting fan of the breakfast
at the Loveless Café.
