Heyday is new to town and quite new to the brunch scene. I'd been hearing good things.
At first glance, this place is freaking gorgeous. Open and spacious, recycled wood and great art... Falling in love.
First glance at the menu reveals a succinct breakfast entree selection and a brief but mui interesting beverage menu. Pannekoken, biscuits and gravy, quiche, rancheros, croque, traditional, breakfast sandwich, bagel and lox, yogurt. That's it. But what a nice variety for a limited menu. I guess I should not forget to mention the side of praline bacon, which we did not order, but I heard it is a dream.
So we picked the most boozy sounding drink on the menu, the "Don't Be Salty", which consists of tequila, orange, salt, strawberry and bubbly... Yow. So good. They should serve it in a punch bowl with straws.

We sat by the kitchen and watched the magic happen while we conversed about bachelor parties, rave tents, rape buses and how we keep getting older, but the Apple River stays the same age...

Here comes the Huevos. So disappointing. One of the worst I've ever had!! The eggs were undercooked, the masa cakes were cold...the whole dish lacked substance. Sad face.
The biscuits and gravy were too salty in my opinion, but had great flavor. Mark insists they should add a couple poached eggs. I definitely agree, as long as they're cooked properly.
The bagel and lox... very standard.
Oh gawd, Heyday. I want to love you. You're perfect on paper. But in reality, you haven't gotten your brunch feet under you yet. I'll give you another chance in a couple months. In the meantime, I want to try your dinner or stop in for a trough of your DBSs.
