"Chef Jamie Daskalis’s Johnny D’s empire includes three locations, all of which open early to get your egg on. The magic begins at 7 a.m. when the kitchen starts churning out Belgian waffles like the Cinnaroll and the Red Velvet, each schmeared with cream cheese icing. But it’s not all cake for breakfast — the benedict, jambalaya omelet, and brisket skillet keep Johnny D’s in high culinary regard. And if it’s already time for lunch, the menu shifts to equally tempting tacos, sandwiches, and burgers, with a full bar menu of craft cocktails."
