Regular readers of this blog will have noticed that the WBC has several traditions, one of our favorites being breakfast at the new home of one of our members. This week our lucky host was Reid, proud new owner of a lovely apartment on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, which he shares with the delightful moose cookie jar you see above.* (Mr. Moose may just have to become the WBC’s first official mascot.) Fortunately for the WBC, Reid and his moose live within walking distance of scores of delicious dining establishments, including the Popover Café. We’ve had Popover on our list of places to try for quite some time, so it was a done deal. NYC, here comes the WBC.
*The photo of Mr. Moose is absolutely, definitely, certainly not just a placefiller because no one got a photo of the exterior of Popover Café. No, not at all.

With our wallets still feeling the pinch from our visit to Mint, the WBC decided to once again visit an old favorite: Wobble Cafe. Since we’ve been here numerous times before, we decided to include reviews only of the meals we hadn’t yet tried before: S’mores Pancakes (enjoyed by Reid) and the Vermonster panini (gobbled down by Shelley).

Mint

19 Main Street
Tarrytown NY 10591

Don’t be fooled by the name or the red and white striped awning; Mint Premium Foods in Tarrytown is not a candy shop. Instead, it’s a gourmet food shop / restaurant. Since relocating to a larger space on Main Street, its offerings have been expanded. A big chalkboard outside that says “Now serving breakfast and dinner” was all the WBC needed to see to convince us to give Mint’s breakfast a try.
