Editorial Review for Star Seeds Cafe – by Betty Castle

In Short
Painted walls are plastered with posters and stickers in a dark, swirling galaxy theme. Alternative music is turned up loud. A wall of booths and a line of red leatherette stools at the counter make up the entire dining area. Generously portioned veggie tacos come with black beans or hummus. The spinach and onion omelette comes on a platter with a huge pile of hash browns and a light griddle-fried gingerbread pancake on the side.

The service here is horrible and the food usually takes a while, but a great place for late-nighters, food is always suprisingly excellent for a diner and if you dont mind waiting it's a good spot!

Pros: affordable, awesome breakfast food

Cons: service, wait, etc

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

The Migas occupied a substantial amount more than half the plate and were piled high, crispy hash browns, and golden home fries filled the remainder of the plate, and three little containers of salsa were balanced on the edge. The impressive mountain (as opposed to a small plateau) of Migas at first glance could be construed as worrisome, conjuring up the thought that Star Seeds substitutes quantity for quality, but such a thought is banished as an egregious falsehood the second a forkful of Migas hits the taste buds. The Star Seeds’ Migas are, simply put, divine. The eggs were fluffy, and mixed in with them was the perfect proportion of tortilla chips which remained just crispy enough to crunch slightly between the teeth. As for vegetables it seems that Star Seeds struck upon the brilliant idea of actually putting a good quantity of them in: great big jalapeno rings, and juicy tomatoes, delicious! At first glance the Star Seeds’ Migas do not seem to have all that much cheese on them but that is only because Star Seeds does not simply melt the cheese on top, it actually (eegads) mixes the cheese in (what an inspired concept) so that every bite, not just the ones close to the top, contain cheesy goodness. Indeed you cannot lift a fork of Star Seeds Migas without having egg, cheese, tortilla, and veggie together. Furthermore something fantastic occurs when you finish a plate of Star Seeds Migas: you find yourself full, and not of beans or tortillas…but filled with Migas. Simply perfect. Migas Score: 6.5 out of 7 More Migas reviews at www.themelbournemethod.blogspot dot com
