At the suggestion of one of our site visitors who posted a reply to our blog from Friday, I tried Las Manitas restaurant for breakfast before leaving town on Sunday. Apparently they are closing soon-sounds like a typical case of rents going up like we see all the time in NYC. It’s too bad-this place rocks! I had Huevos Rancheros and my friend had Chorizo and Eggs. Both dishes were served with refried beans and potatoes plus either corn or flour tortilla. The juices were all hand squeezed and for two full breakfasts with coffee and juice, we didn’t even spend $20. I hope this place opens up nearby because I’m going back there next year! Las Manitas on Congress and Second St.

Las Manitas isn’t closing. That would prompt a riot! They are moving further down Congress Ave.
