FOOD-DAY, TUESDAY!



One my family's favorite places for a casual breakfast or lunch is Lori's Cafe, located at 2201 W. Wall Street, Midland. With a comforting, diner feel, eating at Lori's Cafe feels like coming home. The restaurant focuses on the freshest ingredients from the surrounding area.


We started our meal with an appetizer playfully named "Mouse Bait." Wedges of buttery brie are breaded and fried to create a light crust. Served on a small, wooden block, the wedges are accompanied by a tart raspberry spread.


For lunch, my husband and I both choose to pot roast melt with sweet potato fries. The slow-cooked pot roast is served on toasted, buttered sour dough bread. The roast is very juicy, and topped with sweet grilled onions and Swiss cheese. The sweet potato fries have the perfect ratio of crispy skin and buttery middle.


After hearing the pie selections, I couldn't help but order a slice of chocolate cream pie. The light and fluffy topping is topped with chocolate shavings. The chocolate filling is  light and airy, and not too sweet. And the pie crust, oh the pie crust was delicious, buttery, and flaky,

Lori's Cafe is a great, family-friendly establishment for Midland.
