Yikes!! I forgot it was mother's day (which is big trouble for another reason, thank you 1800flowers). I tried Norma's on a mother's day a couple years back and they basically said (at noon), don't bother coming, as they will be full till closing. I have waited anywhere from 30 to 90 mins for a table, and that was a normal sunday. The benedict is awesome, and so is the oatmeal with sliced fruit and the scramble egg quesadilla and the macademia pancakes and the....well...everything there is awesome

I guess I will find someplace else...maybe sushi Who takes their mom for sushi? Should be fairly quiet.

Thanks to everyone for the advise on the stopover... I will try it out.
