"The wife and I had some errands to run in Beverly Hills (yes, that's right ? Rodeo Drive, 90210, swimming pools, movie stars ? okay, maybe not those last two). After we had taken care of everything, we walked one block over to have breakfast at The Farm. This place has indoor and outdoor seating. The day was sunny and warm so we chose to sit inside. It is very airy with high ceilings, kind of like a barn. It was 9:30 AM or so and there are not many people inside. We got a booth and looked over the menu. The wife chose the egg sandwich. I knew she was going to because the waitress asked her to choose between fruit, something else, and roasted potatoes. As soon as the waitress said they were roasted fingerling potatoes, my wife had no further questions. She loves those kinds potatoes. I chose their Challah French toast. French toast is my go to dish for new breakfast places. I wanted to see how this restaurant stacked up. We also both had coffee, which was good. The coffee was good. The restaurant was not too noisy so we could enjoy our conversation without having to yell at each other. I was looking out the front of the restaurant and enjoying the parade of eclectic locals and tourists without having to worry about sitting in the sun. Food arrived and it looked delicious. The wife was very happy with her egg sandwich. It comes with bacon, she likes hers crispy, and that is just how they prepared it. Of course, he likes her fingerling potatoes any way the restaurant makes them and they were not burned so she was happy about that. She ate the entire plate, sandwich and potatoes. My food came with a little beaker of maple syrup on the side and the toast was covered in mixed fruit. I'm not really a fruit kind of guy but this fruit was fresh and I ate all of it. The host was thick well cooked and had the slightest hint of cinnamon. Needless to say, I ate the entire plate, too. We were both satisfied and happy with their choices. The coffee kept coming and then it was time to leave. This place is a little more expensive than others I have frequented. However, it is Beverly Hills, one block over from Rodeo Drive and somebody has to pay the rent. I will be back in the area next week and will most likely come back again. One more thing of note. Beverly Hills, like most places in Southern California, is suffering from a severe drought. If you want a glass of water on your table, you have to ask for it, movie star or not."
