Not too long ago, Jefferson Market was one of the first places I had gone to get my hubs a birthday cake. It was our first time spending his birthday together, just the two of us, since getting married. This, of course, didn't stop me from ordering a huge tiramisu cake and sharing with the world, however. Just a few days before, I made the order and when I arrived I was given a huge cake for about $30 in a nice, albeit OPEN box. We would enjoy this treat for weeks to come, and I was happy to have discovered this gem.
That brings me 2 years later, on the last weekend of February 2017, when a lovely friend of mine shared with me that they would be closing. It was a bit heartbreaking because anytime I had attempted to go, there was never any open tables, OR SPACE, for that matter to wait. Of course, on the Market's second to last day, I would find, not only SPACE, but two adorable couches for my friend and I to lay on while awaiting our orders.
She decided on the pancakes and scrambled eggs, I would have the Mt. Rushmore, a gorgeous egg scramble with fresh veggies, including red onion, bell peppers and hash browns all over with turkey sausage on the side. Unfortunately, it took them quite some time to get our order to us, close to 45 minutes. This was fine though because it was their last hurrah, and because of our heinous wait, we were treated to a little extra love, which we felt in every bite of our food.
The owner kindly told us of her departure. They weren't going to move but they had decided to sell, to another, awesome Ann Arbor staple. Apparently, the new installation will be there soon enough and similar to the adorable nook that this restaurant once was. I'm looking forward to what may come of this space, but in the meantime, I'm going to enjoy the memories I've had because of this adorable place. Spring is coming, in more ways than one.
