Saturday morning, up early and on the road to welcome another day into existence — at least until my stomach takes control and zeros the Vespa towards a place for breakfast. In addition to fine roads for riding there are a lot of small, locally owned eating establishments to are a perfect addition to a fine ride.
On this morning my mind is set on The Naked Egg Cafe in Pine Grove Mills, Pennsylvania.
The Naked Egg is situated along PA Route 26 as you enter Pine Grove Mills coming from State College. It’s in the place that for years was occupied by Watkins Dariette. This is my second visit since they opened about a month ago and I have to say I’m about ready to make the place my go to eating establishment. They’ve done wonders transforming the interior space into something special, the food choices are extensive, and it tastes great.
You can see menus on the Naked Egg Cafe website.
I ordered a simple steak and eggs breakfast. Sitting here writing I wish I could have it for dinner but they closed at 2pm today (Sunday). Oh well, next week…
The toast, eggs and home fries were perfect but the steak, a luscious 4 oz. filet — I told the waitress it was the best steak I’ve tasted in years.
So, if you find yourself in central Pennsylvania and need a good place to have breakfast or lunch, try the Naked Egg.
