    My Son takes me out each year for my Birthday. We try to dine at restaurants that have been on our list, but have not eaten at. Model Milk was this years choice. When we looked at the menu prior to our reservation nothing jumped out at us as an absolutely must try item. That all changed once we ordered and started eating, no started experiencing the dishes we had chosen. We both were blown away with absolute perfection. We ordered almost all of the small dishes and every one was delicious. To anyone who may read this, don’t judge a book , or in this case menu. By its cover. Model milk is now one of our favorite restaurants. EAT EVERYTHING! You won’t regret it.

    I do love a nice breakfast and the beltliner didn’t disappoint. It has a little bit of that diner feel but the coffee is far better than that. I had a hash brown bowl and my egg was perfectly done-cooked white, runny yolk. Seasonings were balanced, textures just right.
