There is shrimp toast with Chinese sausage and fried egg, Peking duck buns, roasted marrow on grilled bread with onion jam and wonton soup with pork and shrimp. Breakfast is served from 8 to 11 a.m. and has biscuits and gravy, two-egg omelets, Big Breakfast Burrito and the Bigger Better, which is two eggs, two bacon strips, two sausage links, two pancakes and potatoes.
