Black Cow and Zeek's

Two weekends ago, Jen and I tried to go to breakfast at Dish. Problem is... they're directly next to a Church, and if you get there at 9AM on Sunday, there's no chance you're gonna sit down for an hour. So we made the mistake of trying anyway, and did a drive by to see a horde of people on the street. No way. So we turned around and headed to the Black cow. We figured it would be just as bad, but we were hungry.

To our surprise we didn't wait at all and were seated next to a few other empty tables. Hmmm, but 15 minutes later there was a horde of people outside as well.

So this weekend, we figured, we'd just start at the Black Cow and everything would be good. Well our luck ran out. They told us 30 minutes to wait, so we sat outside under the trees next to the Honolulu traffic (or lack there of), and 30 minutes came and went. I didn't think we were going to get seated any time soon, and the number of people on the sidewalk was growing. All waiting for seats. Star Cafe opened, and a large number of people migrated over to their tables. And then I finally said... "Jen, Zeek's is open for breakfast". Well Zeek's is 10 feet away from where we are sitting waiting, and Jen finally gets up to investigate. She walks in, and then quickly walks back out and motions me to follow. She disappears inside, and when i get in, she's already sitting at a table.

So for those of you who don't know Zeek's. Its a incredible Smoke BBQ place. The smell alone will stick with you for at least a day. Incredible food, and a "must" for Dinner. But breakfast I didn't know about. Well that's until I looked at their breakfast menu. I think this actually might be our weekly regular spot. I had Huevos Rancheros that ended up realy being a Quesidiall with Eggs and COVERED in Salsa. That's an easy way to make me happy. mmmmmmm. Then the smoked bacon. Damn.

They opened the smoker a couple times while were there and the smell permeates the room in about 3 seconds. I smelled like smoke all day long :).
