We Love Alanas!

Its official-- Alana's Cafe in Redwood City is our favorite place to grab brunch with the boys, especially in the summer. The restaurant is on the ground floor of a historic Victorian house. The place next door is an art gallery, and they set out tables in the garden between in the summer.

We always order the same thing: a combination of oatmeal pancakes, fresh fruit, and their fantastic quiche. They give "wiki sticks" out to the kids to help keep them entertained (see photo below), but when Spencer or Tyler get squirrely, they can run around on the grass and the porches while dad continues to enjoy a cup of coffee and mom finshes off her tasty scone.
