Breakfast is a simple meal to make, ranging from the minimalist approach (bread products, fruit) to full-blown cardiac specials (dairy, meat and bread products). Who among us can’t heat water, fry eggs or operate the toaster? Yet breakfast out is a treat, a break from cold cereal, lingering over the morning paper while someone refreshes your coffee.
Open seven days a week, KC’S BREAKFAST CLUB in Post Falls wants you to be a regular member. Their menu features home-style breakfast and lunch, with variations for different size appetites, plus menus for kids, seniors and to-go.
Breakfast could be omelets with home-style potatoes or hashbrowns and three buttermilk pancakes ($8-$10). Order your omelet plain, with chef’s choice of vegetables, or choose the meat lovers’ (think pizza flavors). “Country”-style items include three biscuits and sausage gravy (ridiculously low-priced at $4), steak and eggs ($8.50) or Country Eggs Benny ($7.50). The Eggs Nicole is a fabulous benedict variation with mushrooms, spinach, onions and Swiss over an open-face croissant with hollandaise, plus a side of potatoes and fruit. The leftovers were even good reheated the next day.
Traditional options include egg-and-meat combos (bacon and eggs, ham and eggs, etc.) and egg-based scrambles ($6.65-$8.65). They serve waffles, French toast and pancakes ($4.75-$10.75) with various toppings. Variations include crepes, cream cheese-filled blintzes and the decadent Apple Pancake soufflé with house-made apple syrup.
Although breakfast is served all day, lunch (served after 11 am) may tempt you, too. Charbroiled burgers range from traditional to jalapeño, mushroom and Swiss, or the Hawaiian-style with teriyaki and pineapple ($7-$9). Sandwiches, including standbys like the BLT and the unusual Alaskan — smoked ham, shrimp, Swiss, tomato and special sauce on wheat bread — are served with choice of salad, soup or homemade waffle fries ($7-$9).
Service is prompt and friendly, prices generally reasonable, and quality is good. The building’s covered, angle-in parking spots are reminiscent of its first incarnation as an A&W, yet this restaurant location at Seltice Way and Spokane Street has thoroughly reinvented itself.
