Yale Street Grill

Yale Street Grill: The Heights =  Avalon Diner: River Oaks

David and I loved this breakfast place, not so much for the breakfast (although it is very solid diner food) but mostly for the clientele.  We spent a good chunk of time lamenting that neither of us had brought our cameras.  

There are tiles on the walls, I like that.  There was also a youngish old lady wearing a fur, and it wasn't even cold out!  David had a crush on one of the waitresses - he caught her name, but I forgot it already - she had a very warm smile.

There is goofy candy at the checkout, unfortunately, I gave up candy for lent and did not partake.  

Basically, what we learned is there is absolutely no reason to ever go to 59 Diner for breakfast.  Best biscuits in town are still at Avalon.

I believe that the correct SAT formatting is:

Yale Street Grill: The Heights::Avalon Diner: River Oaks.

As in: Yale Street Grill is to The Heights as Avalon Diner is to River Oaks.

Otherwise, I can't really comment because I have never been to Yale Street Grill but I suspect that Hugo's Sauce of Death is a reason to go to 59 and I question any motive to go to Avalon.
