What it's
Like
Always packed for weekend brunch, the Banana Café is a small, open
air restaurant. The restaurant has a bar and about 10 tables in the main
room and about 15 more tables on a side porch. The doors and windows are
open and the ceiling fans stir up a warm breeze to comfort customers.
Drinks
None for us. The menu offers American coffee, Cuban coffee con leche,
espresso, cappuccino, tea and a selection of juices, soft drinks, beers
and wines.
Food
 The
menu features a variety of crepes such as La Paysanne (bacon, mushrooms
& bechamelle) for $6.70, La Chevre Chaud (goat cheese & walnut)
for $7.50, La Mer (sea scallops in white wine & crème) and
about 20 other choices. You can also order simple crepes with honey, strawberry,
lemon, orange or raspberry jam for $3.00. Breakfast options include salmon
and bagel for $7.45, croissants for $1.75, omelettes ranging from $5.50
to $6.50 which include toast, and other standard breakfast fare such as
bacon and eggs. They also offer a French breakfast which seems to consist
of French bread and a croissant for $4.00. The offer a good selection
of salad and sandwiches as well. We opted for the turkey & ham sandwich
which is served on fresh French bread with lettuce, tomato and homemade
mayonnaise. It was a great, fresh deli sandwich.
