Linda’s Seabreeze Café

When I Need a Break from Family Craziness, I Go to Linda’s Seabreeze Cafe | Bon Appétit

"An unassuming, breakfast-and-lunch-only diner known for familiar, comforting plates: egg specials come with a pile of greasy, crispy home fries and every plate is garnished with an orange slice and parsley. Popular staples include two fried eggs with toast and a tuna salad sandwich (often served with an orange wedge), and meals are typically accompanied by a Diet Coke and an overly generous side of potatoes. There’s often a wait—mitigated by a coffee pot, mugs and benches outside—and the small dining room (about 14 tables) is carpeted wall-to-wall, which softens the sound as locals order “the usual” and day-trippers fuel up for the beach. Little lived-in details, from worrying that the previous diner might have double-dipped the jam spoon to the overall calming, familiar vibe, make it a reliable refuge for a peaceful, homey meal." - ByElaheh Nozari
