We had no idea what to do on Christmas Day. We knew it would be tough to find places to eat and our only plan was to have a merry Jewish Christmas at the movies (specifcally to see “Nine” at the famous Castro movie theater!) We asked the concierge where we might find a place open for breakfast and they recommended Sears Fine Foods right up the street.
The place was kitschy but cute. Very diner-like with a theme revolving around getting a token as you leave to spin a slot machine for a free meal. (We didn’t win)
We went all-in for the breakfast. Mike got 2 eggs, 2 strips bacon, 2 sausages with 2 pancakes.
I went with the “Sears’ World Famous 18 Swedish Pancakes” (with a side of sausage). They were actually quite tasty! I still like my own better, but these were still good. Light and flavorful.
Though I’m not sure if I’d call them “world famous.”
Overall, Sears Fine Foods was exactly that… fine. I wouldn’t go out of my way to go there again, but if it’s the only place open on Christmas Day, it’s not a terrible option.
