This Treat is Tricky. It's Tricky. It's Tricky, Tricky, Tricky!
Details
Yes, hit that ATTEND button right now! But then read the following and cancel if it doesn't sound like your cuppa tea(berculosis).
Our Halloween BreakFester will be bone-chilling inside and out ... cuz you'll need to stand out in the cold and rain with me at least a half-hour before they open.
That's the trick to get a treat, because Momento Mori takes no reservations and we must line up early. Last Halloween, the line was around the block, and only two dozen souls can fit into their crypt. Momento Mori opens at 9am, but you'll need to arise and dearly depart by the crack of dawn (of the dead) to join me in line long before the bell tolls for thee and they unlock their mausoleum door.
I plan to get there by ate, ahem, eight a.m. Those who don't join me by 8:30 will likely see no way to step into the light.
There are two 4-tops right inside the door that we hope to possess. There's also one 5-top in the forbidden alcove off to the left that perhaps one person on the eternal waitlist might scramble and inhabit if the tea leaves are in our favor. The rest, if hoping to join us, are on their own.
And it gets even spookier! Because everything's VEEEEEEgan! So no dead flesh for you guys and ghouls. No eggs, only vegan "just eggs,' no bacon, only "bacun," no milk, only "oat- and nut-milk," no avocado, only "avo..." oh, wait, yeah, there is avocado.
Study the options intently while we await in the rain: www.mementomoricafe.com/offerings then order quickly at the register while a couple of us lost souls hold the tables from floating away. A bewitchingly good drip coffee is offered, as well as an utterly maddening array of much more tasty caffeinated potions.
Foodwise, however, it's only an enchanting but pitiful spectre of a light breakfast treat. Fear not, brethren, because an unholy array of other, real, breakfast choices await you just a block south at Stepping Stone Cafe, or a block north and east at Pine State Biscuits, or three blocks due east at Besaws. The choice is yours, if your telltale heart so desires.
But before you venture off, I'd recommend one of the nice little skull muffins to go: the pumpkin-spiced brAAAAAIns are zomberrific.
