Bar of America

10042 Donner Pass Road
Truckee, CA 96161

Occasion: Saturday brunch before parasailing and jetskiing in north tahoe. 7.31.10 We had originally wanted to go to squeeze in just a few restaurants down, but the wait was just too long. So we settled for this place, which wasn't too bad.

Tomato Soup
It was some kind of tomato soup. Very oily, as you should be able to see in the pic.  It was decent, but not the best I've had.  Good thing I got to share it with my friend.
Vanilla Custard French Toast with straberry compote and vanilla bean mascarpone
The toast was just mediocre but it was SOOOOO delciious with the mascarpone. I think it was the mascarpone that did it for me and the strawberries. I love mascarpone cheese, the sweetness, the flavor and the consistency slathered on the toast with a strawberry. Yummio delicous! Loved it!
Duck Confit Hash
House made duck confit, apple, potato, sweet onion, poached eggs, toast
Very good, but also very rich. I am so glad I shared this. Definitely not something I could finish on my own.
Croque Madame Sandwich
Capicola, gruyere Bechamel, Grilled truckee sourdough over easy egg and breakfast potatoes
Due to the different cheeses, there was a lot of flavor in this sandwich. I don't usually order breakfast sandwwiches, but I thought it wasn't too bad. Again, a bit on the heavy side.
