Hoighty Toighty places

I was in Petaluma this weekend visiting my dog and my family and I finally convinced my sister to go to a cafe I have been wanting to try. She said she didn't go to those "hoighty toighty" places, and by that I guess she means places with a ZAGAT rated sticker in the window? Or she means places that aren't chains. I really had wanted to go there for lunch or dinner, but we ended up getting breakfast on Sunday. I was enticed by the menu in the window but when we showed up the actual breakfast menu for the day had only a few items on it.

I got a croissant and lil' sis' ordered the pancakes. I was worried she was going to hate this place and i would never get back there for a glass of wine. But, after a few bites of pancakes she was still smiling and not complaining. A good sign. She let me have a bite or two of the cakes and they were the best I've ever had. Even Nina said they were fluffy and sweet enough, but still crispy, just a little bit. They were served the way she likes them, with a few strawberries, syrup, and a side of compote.
