\n

With a day of gastronomic achievement under our belts (over mine), Keith McLendon and I started off Day 2 of my 2025 Georgia Tour with a conventional breakfast. We initially headed to Shroeder\u2019s Market in Brunswick only to find that they had just closed the place in order to redo their business model. Sigh! Plan B turned out to be Sweet Mama\u2019s<\/a> on St. Simons Island at 98 Retreat Village.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

It\u2019s a nice sparkling clean place inside with seating, good coffee, a pastry display, and a list of breakfast sandwiches and pastries, pies, and cakes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

We both started off with a sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Then Keith added a blueberry muffin for us to split, and I countered by adding a cinnamon roll for us to share.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Keith declared the sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit to be good, and I agree. The cheese melted beautifully, the egg was unexceptionable, and the sausage perked up after I added pepper, which I do reflexively. Oh, and the biscuit was fine.<\/p>\n

On to the pastries. The muffin was moist and loaded with blueberries. I\u2019m not a big muffin guy, but if all of them were this good I would be. On to the cinnamon roll, which I liked. Ken opined that it was a little chewy. but it\u2019s not like he offered his share to me. I suppose it could use a little more cinnamon, but so could so many things. I even had cinnamon in chili, where iI; d thought it had no business at all, at Blue Ash<\/a> and Empress<\/a>, and I enjoyed it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That took care of my 2,000 calories for the day, and may not have been a great idea, as our next meal turned out to be an epic challenge. Meanwhile, if you\u2019re in St. Simons you should give Sweet Mama\u2019s a try. Apparently it\u2019s now Keith\u2019s choice for breakfast locally, which means that it\u2019s the best option around. Get a breakfast sandwich and a pastry or two that we didn\u2019t try, and let me know how it was.<\/p>\n
