[...] out to be the best $6.95 I have ever spent on breakfast. I continually go back to our review of the $10 Dream Cafe pancakes and am baffled at how they get away at charging such a price in a mediocre cafe type setting. [...]

I’m with andrea… I have NEVER heard of a migas..? Anyway, I have been craving pancakes lately because every time i am dragged to look at dvds I always see the “Dan in Real Life” dvd with steve carrell laying on a huge stack. mmmmm… this just added to the crave. I think I’m going to have to make some.

i lived in dallas for 6 years and visited dream cafe a few times – it was just a few blocks from my apartment. however, i don’t recall ever eating their breakfast. and if the price was $10 for 2 pancakes back then, that’s probably why.

breadwinners was a good breakfast/brunch spot. as well as snuffer’s – after a hangover anyway.

not sure how i stumbled across your blog, but i plan to stop back by. i live a couple hours outside of dallas and make it to the city every now and then.

Migas are basically egg scrambled mixed with salsa and cilantro i guess and what ever else you got in the kitchen, oh and tortilla strips. I just to have them with no meat but now everybody seems to do them with some kind of meat, chorizo, sausage, turkey, baby..ok not baby but all kinds of stuff. they serve them with tortillas i like them with just tortilla chips on the side or like a dip. If im ever gonna have beer with “breakfast” its while im eating migas. damn im hungry now

Since when do you eat Migas Brian? My mom makes that shit homemade and you’ve never once mentioned them. Way to blow it. Although I’m with you on French Toast over Pancakes. Also attributed to my mother.

i’ve had these too! they are delicious… and although expensive, they’re a whole lot of pancake (not just 2 regular size pancakes i say…).

they really are fabulously fluffy, and the fresh strawberries are a perfect complement

OK, enough about the migas(?)…those pancakes look delicious, and again another place my son Brian will have to take me when I return!

very valid point about cafe brazil being hit or miss. i’ve definitely experienced that the past couple of times, but it’s been more about the service than the food. the lower greenville and mockingbird locations have always done me good with their migas. now the wait required to get them… that’s a whole other story

p.s. also, i will say that cloud cakes are amazing and worth getting despite their $$ status. it’s strange too, because this price tag doesn’t reflect the overall price range of Dream Cafe. It seems to me to be quite reasonable in everything else.
