I'm so excited that Danal Danal moved to my neighborhood, about two blocks from where I live. I never went to the previous location so I can't compare but the food we had for brunch today was good. Lon enjoyed his burger, which came with salad and the thin fries I like. The fries were a bit cold but still crispy. Becky had Poached Eggs, their version of Eggs Benedict with sausage, and she was very happy with it. I ordered the Croissant French Toast apprehensively because it's a dish that often comes too sweet. The waitress said it wasn't overwhelmingly sweet so I gave it shot thinking I could eat some of Lon's burger. Surprisingly, it was perfect for me, the least sweet French Toast I've had at a restaurant. The sauteed apples and walnuts added a light sweetness to basically unsweetened French Toast and that's all I needed. It really left me wondering though if it's always this un-sweet. (My friend Caroline had it the next day and confirmed my suspicions. Her French Toast was very sweet so I guess mine was a fluke.)
I didn't like the coffee because it was too acidic but aside from that, the food was good and came in generous portions, and at a moderate price. What I love though is the decor. It has a homey feel like you're in a Bed & Breakfast on the French country side that makes me want to sit there all day. I am so sad that I forgot my camera but I promise to take pictures next time, which will be very soon.
