For over 21 years ago, Felicia Sanchez and her staff at Centre Street Café have sought to serve the best locally-grown, organic foods and vegetables. For the Cafe's local and loyal customers, this means getting the freshest offering on an eclectic menu--a fusion of national and international-inspired dishes. The place gets packed for weekend brunch, where its French toast is reportedly legendary.

I've eaten there a dozen times and enjoyed it, yet found nothing that would compel me to wait in line for a half-hour or more on weekends. Perhaps I don't quite grasp the subtle camaraderie of standing in the sun in a line on a sidewalk to be eventually crowded into a small space. Great food, better during the off-hours.
