Belle Isle Seafood

http://www.belleisleseafood.com/  Yes !
I confess I'm drifting a bit from the theme of breakfast, but it is fast, and it is food, and most of all it's fun.

Fast, well, yes we waited for the grilled swordfish, and the rice pilaf was nice and hot.
Before we get to the food:  a lobster lesson:  who knew there were NAMES for all the "rooms" in a lobster trap ?

Then to the good stuff -- a fist full of lobster roll (1/2 pound!) and a grilled swordfish dinner:

Finally, from the parking lot (behind the gas station just before you get to Belle Isle):

and a plane taking off from Logan - right to left, (it's tiny!)


Don't try to park on the road- half the bridge is blocked off for repair (July 2011) - but the parking lot behind the gas station has plenty of parking -- see the video above from the parking lot. Sadly, no new origami for a while now. Trying to figure out what to do next.

renee's benedicts and pancakes

benedict, pancakes, latkes (ironically with bacon and cheez? [a potentially explosive mixture!] !!), then on the opposite end of the contradictory juxtapositions, veggie sausage (what IS that stuff?).


and "a mechanical construction" - make it into anything you want !

Castle Island - Sullivan's

Okay it's not breakfast (but they do serve breakfast 7 days starting 8:30am)

see their URL for pictures of Old Ironsides, and howitzer salute from the fort to the water...
breakfast menu:   http://www.sullivanscastleisland.com/menu.php#breakfast
Friday evening - lobster roll (ah!) (yum !)
maybe "fast food" counts at least in part ?

okay the fish was eaten before we got to the picture, but the chips were still hot..
clam chowdah
the real stuff, definitely not from a can

2011-05-0 S&S Cambridge at Inman Square

http://www.sandsrestaurant.com/
Inman Square, 1334 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA  02139   
Phone  617-354-0777
there is a small parking area , but you have to be there early, or be really lucky
early is best - there is almost always a line for seating, and it forms before the place actually opens at 8am.


Eggs Copenhagen, (look at the menu!)
Eggs Oscar - (crabmeat with poached eggs, asparagus, ..)
<sorry, got eaten before pictures were taken>

then a simple Sonobe cube, start with six squares, each will be one "face" of the cube.
