My new favorite spot for breakfast or lunch is Sun Street Breads.  It’s owned and run by Solveig Tofte who baked for Turtle Bread for many years and was a sensation at the Kingfield Farmer’s Market last summer.

The menu is simple, made up of biscuit sandwiches, a few pastries, these awesome fried potato balls called Gordas (not sure of spelling), a couple of breakfast staples and a smattering of sandwiches.  The food is simple as well, nothing fancy or highfalutin, but everything made with high-quality ingredients and with the hand of a talented baker.  The result is delicious, every-day food.  My three favorites so far are the gordas, the biscuit sandwich with scrambled eggs, cheese and sausage, and the raspberry cream scone.

The space is light, bright and airy.  They serve dogwood coffee and I guess they have a full liquor license and intend to open for dinner some time in the future.  For now they are open from 6:30an-2:30pm daily.  They are on the corner of 46th and Nicollet in South Minneapolis.  Check them out if you have a chance.
