Snow City Cafe

What a fun but busy weekend. It flew by in a flash, and I can’t believe it’s Monday already. 🙁

Saturday morning, Craig and I headed to Snow City Cafe in downtown Anchorage for some breakfast. We love this cafe and have gone here a number of times before!

I love the door handles.

The cafe is open, bright, and a little hippy, but we love it!

Even though we’ve been here a number of times, I still have to study the menu to weigh all my options.

I love how they support local businesses and strive to be green.

I finally settled on an omlet, which isn’t like me, but I guess I was craving some protein that morning.

Über Omelet
Black Forest ham, red onions, green peppers, Roma tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, cheddar, Swiss

Served with an English muffin.

Fresh fruit instead of the hashbrowns.

Some of the fruit was definitely not in season. 🙁

I enjoyed my omelet. I didn’t love it, but it wasn’t horrible either. It seemed like I could have easily recreated this at home. Oh well. I should have went with the Stuffed French Toast : French Oven’s baguette, mandarin orange cream cheese,
toasted walnuts, syrup, raspberry butter.
(Now that’s a winner!)

Craig almost always gets the same dish. He’s finds something he likes and sticks with it. 🙂

Nuevo Huevos
Fried Taco Loco white corn tortilla, brown rice, black bean salsa, cheddar, ranchero sauce, two eggs any style, fresh guacamole, sour cream

He said it wasn’t as good as the other times we’ve come, but he didn’t have any trouble clearing his plate. 😉

After breakfast, we grabbed some coffee to take with us. A 12 oz. decaf skinny Kaladi Latte for me, and a 16 oz. Sludge Cup for him.

Our next stop: to do some cheering at the Cross Country Running Jamboree for the kids where I work at. We had fun cheering everyone on. I talked about how I’m probably going to be that parent that gets my kids up at 5:00 in the morning to do track workouts!

More to come later!

Hi, I'm Michelle

I love running around the lakes of Minnesota, running after my two boys, and racing anything from the 5K to the marathon. I have been blogging here since 2010 when I ran my first marathon. I finally secured my sub-3 hour marathon after trying for 8 years.

      A sludge cup is espresso and brewed coffee.

    those door handles are so cute!

    I’m curious about a sludge cup too.

    I gotta admit, Anchorage looks way cooler than I assumed. You make me want to visit!

      I’m starting to think a sludge cup is an Alaskan thing? It is espresso and brewed coffee.
