Downtown East Point eatery opens



Debbie's Delight opened a few weeks ago. Neighborhood Facebook fans gave it high marks so I ordered breakfast there. It also gave me the chance to meet a person who I've followed on FB for some time.

Location:


The diner filled a spot that unfortunately has has a many incarnations of food restaurants, from Thai to a catering service. Its storefront faces East Point Street , a the intersection with White Way, in the heart of downtown.

What does it look like?

There is ample room in this uncluttered, minimalist restaurant. It has wooden floors and planks of blonde wood as paneling. At breakfast, sunlight made the place even more welcoming.

After getting my coffee, the waitress quickly brought over my quesadilla filled with egg and cheese. I chose the meat option of bacon, because it is bacon. But there was also the option of ??  The meal, which was cut into thirds, came out nicely browned, giving the quesadilla a nice crunch.  It also came with sides of salsa and sour cream.  The salsa added spicy flavor to the meal.

My companion wanted to some food to go, which created a bit of snafu. The menu promoted Coke products, but the waitress said none were available. She also said the turkey sausage  she ordered wasn't so great, but she said that wasn't the restaurant's fault.

The price for the meal:

$9 for the Breakfast Quesadillas


$1.99 for coffee.


Total: $11.87.


The place takes credit and debit cards.

 

Downtown East Point already has two breakfast places, Thumbs Up, with its American diner favorites, and Suszy Qs, a three meats and a side Southern style of restaurant. Debbie's could make a go of it, especially if it extends its hours to Sunday to lure the waiting crowd which spills out of Thumbs Up.
