Last Day to Nominate: Belmont Shore's Best Breakfast

We of course have some diehard favorite breakfast spots, having lived here awhile, but we promise not to stack the ....pancakes in this week's Reader's Choice 2012 Best Breakfast Place Awards.

We want to hear your favorites, and why, so nominate more than one if you'd like. I myself might need sub-categories because not every restaurant serves Huevos Rancheros, and another place has my favorite food but is way too noisy for a conversation.

Oh, how this makes me miss Hof's Hut on Second Street. The sidewalk mural, the kid friendly booths and stroller-tolerant hosts.

So tell us: What's the Best Breakfast Place in and around Belmont Shore? You have until Friday morning at 9 to nominate places in our comments, and restaurants this is your time to shine. We generally include the Cal State Long Beach area and Belmont Heights, and other areas where Naples and Shore residents shop and dine.

And let's hope you always get your breakfast order just the way you want it, from a server unlike this jobsworth and Jack Nicholson in "Five Easy Pieces."

A few places that have come up so far:

Coffee Cup Cafe

The Small Cafe

The Starling Diner

Polly's Gourmet Coffee

Schooner or Later

E.J. Molloy's

K.C. Branaghan's

Have we missed any?
