Brunch at Highland Kitchen

Highland Kitchen is one of my favorite spots in Somerville. The brunch is fantastic and I believe its mostly due to the live bluegrass band that plays in the corner and the fact that you can order a single pancake. The pancakes are unbelievable and keep me coming back.


One perfect pancake


Organic granola, fresh fruit and yogurt


Grilled ham, cheddar, tomato and fried egg on sourdough
