The Paramount

It's funny how when I go new places I always find a joint that I really enjoy and want to return to. For Boston's Beacon Hill with children in tow, that place is The Paramount.

I found it on Yelp when looking for a breakfast place and then the valet out front of the hotel recommended it as well. Off we went.

It's small-ish and a place where you order at the counter and then find a seat. Risky business with kids but we ate late enough both times that it wasn't an issue. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner but we only made it there in the morning. The dinner menu looks great and it all gets made right then and there, short order style, before your eyes.

The folks who worked there get it. They were all nice and helpful. Sometimes that just isn't the case. The lead cashier even came out to see if Palmer was liking his pancakes. Gotta love that!

Huevos Rancheros---so delicious.  I had them twice!

You know a place is great when you can take your 4 year-old's shirt off so he doesn't get syrup on it and no one cares.  

And if it has a fantastic spot for shadow puppetry.  With ketchup!

I think they love this place!
