Hello Hudson!
The current “in-the-know” breakfast and lunch spot is Bodega Aguila Real. For $9.99 or less, you can eat a huge breakfast of eggs and/or pancakes. For $10-12, you can have yourself a huge plate of fried chicken (or other meat) potatoes and vegetables. They moved the shelves to make room for table-service dining!
Try them out! Green Street and Columbia – right across from the Olympic Torch and the horse trough.
