For a late breakfast on Saturday, Matt and I went to <\/strong>Julia\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s<\/font><\/strong><\/a><\/font> in Wallingford.   Julia\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s is a mini-chain in the Seattle area, and the one in Wallingford is the original (plus they have a bakery!).  The one in the Capital Hill neighborhood is apparently also great and has drag show fun on the weekends! I was craving breakfast burritos when we got out of bed and Matt was a sweetheart and did some internet searching to find some options. <\/font><\/p>\n

Mae\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Cafe<\/a>, down the street from our apartment, has an amazing breakfast burrito that comes with delicious black beans, spicy chorizo and a big pile of hash browns, but we were feeling something new, and Julia\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s had the best selection of burritos, according to their online menu.  Plus, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really close to us and to a grocery store, which we needed to visit. <\/font><\/p>\n

We were seated really quickly\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6it wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t packed, but we were also coming at about 11am, so the breakfast crowd was probably a little earlier in the morning.  I ordered the Disayuno Burrito<\/strong> (Large whole wheat tortilla, eggs, bacon, tomato, scallions, cheddar cheese, topped with sour cream and salsa) and Matt had the Herb & 3 Cheese Omelet (Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan, Scallions and Italian Herbs). We both had coffee (which they refilled constantly!) and both of our dishes came with fried potatoes. <\/font><\/p>\n

The coffee was great\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6I usually go with juice for breakfast, but they use Caff\u00c3\u00a9 Vita<\/a><\/strong><\/font><\/strong><\/font> coffee, which is delicious and locally wonderful! <\/font><\/p>\n

Our food came out really quickly and was majorly yummy! We of course tried the potatoes first, which were super flavorful and cooked to perfection, with lots of little bits of darkened potato that were nice and caramelized.   Both the potatoes and Matt\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s omelet were SUPER seasoned\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6He enjoyed the omelet, but the bit I tried had a bit too much of a dried herb flavor for me.  The texture was fairly soft without him even asking for it soft, and it was mucho cheesy.  He also had toast, which I stole some of\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6I love toast with jam! <\/font><\/p>\n

My burrito was also yum\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6.if I had thought ahead of time, I would have asked for the sour cream and salsa on the side, because they put them right on top, so there was no way I could pick up the burrito.  So I cut it up and ate it with fork and knife (NOT as fun!).  Still delicious though!  I liked the whole wheat wrap a lot, and the amount of filling was perfect.  The bacon was cut into tiny tiny pieces and was not particularly prominent, and I would have preferred either nice thick slices, or at least bigger, crunchy pieces throughout.  The salsa was great and the sour cream got on my potatoes, which made them even better!! <\/font><\/p>\n

Overall, a great breakfast! It looks like they have a fun happy hour snack menu too, so I wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t mind going back sometime for that! Plus we have a coupon that can only be used during the week\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6maybe we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll make it a recurring place.  <\/font><\/p>\n

Dori<\/a><\/font> and Matt\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mom are crazy about breakfast so we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re always keeping track of places we like so we can prepare for their visits.  We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll definitely put this one on the list!!  <\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
