Cape May Cafe Character Breakfast

For breakfast on my last day I decided to go across the lake to a restaurant that I had not been to in more than 10 years, the Beach Club’s…

For those that have not been to Cape May, this is a buffet-style restaurant and at breakfast there are characters dressed in beach attire. I was able to take quite a few photos of the food which is offered here for breakfast so let’s first take a look those, starting with some of the fruit…grapefruit, oranges, cantaloupe, grapes, and strawberries along with plain and strawberry yogurt.

Then some other options from the cold area of the buffet…hard boiled eggs, salami, assorted cheeses, smoked salmon, and pastrami-style salmon served with capers, onion, lemons, and tomatoes (not pictured).

Then the salads, such as this Spinach, Apple, and Walnut Salad…

And this Healthy Grain & Fruit Salad with quinoa, barley, dried fruits, and almonds tossed with citrus-ginger dressing…

Next we have the breads and assorted pastries, like sliced bread for toasting, mini-muffins, orange-cranberry bread, banana bread, bagels, croissants, cinnamon rolls, and chocolate danish…

Asparagus…

French toast and Mickey waffles…

Along with toppings of strawberries and whipped cream…

There was ham at the carving station…

Biscuits…

Nothing in my notes/photos as to what this is but it looks like maybe stewed tomatoes… :confused3

The standard breakfast meats of bacon and sausage links…

[IMG]

Two photos of the Mushroom, arugula, and white cheddar cheese frittata…

Then the Red-skinned Potatoes…

[IMG]

And last, Plain Scrambled Eggs…

[IMG]

…and also Chorizo and Four Cheese Scrambled Eggs.

And then my choices, starting with a bowl of fruit (strawberries, grapes, pineapple, and watermelon)…

[IMG]

My main plate…

[IMG]

Starting at the 12 o’clock position and moving clockwise: Mushroom Frittata, Chocolate Danish, Bacon, Potatoes, Asparagus (sans Hollandaise), and plain ‘ole Scrambled Eggs.

And then French toast smothered in Bananas Foster sauce…

[IMG]

Everything that I had was good, but the two standouts were the frittata and the French toast. :thumbsup2:thumbsup2

Last but not least, some character love with Goofy and Donald…

And the star of this show, Miss Minnie Mouse…

Overall I would have to say that this was my least favorite character breakfast of this trip. Not that it was bad at all, but food-wise it was outshined by both Crystal Palace and Tusker House.
