"Your trips to Magnolia used to be late at night when you desperately needed a stack of pancakes. Now circumstances have changed and your late-night activities are more Wicked sing-along than karaoke. Not everything has to change, though, and Magnolia can still be a go-to. Now you can use it to convince your kid that “breakfast for dinner” is a special holiday for kids who haven’t finger-painted the walls in the last week. Get the gingerbread pancakes or the EggScape—a mountain of potatoes, cheese, sausage, and eggs—then try to remember the last time you stayed up past 11:30pm." - adele hazan, nicolai mccrary
