There’s Nothing Plain About It
Plane View Restaurant delivers satisfying morning edibles
By: Liz Hilfrank
We all have those days when motivation is harder to find than two matching socks. On days like these, there’s only one thing that will get you through the 9-5 grind, and that’s the two-egg breakfast from Plane View in the Vineyard Haven MV Airport.
Two eggs can be cooked any style, but scrambled guarantees satisfaction. Whipped together with milk, these fluffy protein-filled bites cover half the plate. It can almost be classified as fun to eat these when a simple touch of the fork causes the light layers to fall away from each other.
Then comes the bread. White, wheat, rye or raisin, any bread-lover can win here. Toasted to perfection, the crust is just the right amount of golden brown that leaves the center soft and chewy. A thin layer of butter enhances the flavor without leaving your hands dripping.
The meal doesn’t stop there. After your fork digs its way through eggs and bread, it will encounter a heaping pile of Lego-sized, cubed potatoes. These home fries sit under a light coat of pepper, and they are the answer to any carb-lover’s cravings.
All of this comes at the low price of $7.95, but spending an extra $1.25 will bring you a layer of breakfast meat placed neatly atop the plate. Choose whichever meat you like, but the bacon is sliced generously, thick and crispy, and its salty taste seeps into the eggs making for an unforgettable morning meal.
Plane View Restaurant delivers it all. With a mug of coffee on the side, the two-egg breakfast leaves every guest as fueled for the day as the jets they watch take off from the restaurant’s windows.
