long beach breakfast tour no. 1


it can't get better than having good conversation over a plate of yummy food, with a dear friend. right? right! well, alex agrees with me, and we have decided to embark on an adventure, of sorts. for the next six months, one day a week, we are staying committed to this adventure, which means learning/talking more about each other and God's plan in our lives, touring long beach, california, and eating good food.

our first stop (of many) for the next six months (until alex leaves for africa) was at the starling diner. i had been here before with my husband, and it definitely left an impression. and alex had heard about it from multiple people. so we decided to make it our first tour stop.

the diner is located at: 4114 e. 3rd street, long beach. it rests in a residential community, you would miss it, if you aren't paying attention. it has limited outdoor seating, but has a handful of tables inside. the wall decor is cute and shabby on one wall, while the alternate wall has art from local artists, that is available for purchase.

the menu offers breakfast and lunch options, all that look great! i definitely have my lunch choice chosen in the back of my mind (chicken salad sandwich!). for this particular morning, i went with the basic eggs+bacon+roasted potatoes plate, off of their specials list, and got a great meal for a great price! alex chose to go with the apple sausage+eggs+roasted potatoes plate. all of it tasted delectable!



the service was good, the atmosphere was fun and the food tasted good! i would definitely recommend this diner to anyone looking for a good breakfast with a friend!
