220 Starcadia Circle, Macon, GA 31210
J.
Christopher’s is a regional chain
of breakfast and lunch restaurants with some 20 locations, almost all in
Georgia, particularly in and around Atlanta. They have the usual staple of
eggs, pancakes (and waffles), salads, and sandwiches, but with a larger
selection of “healthy options” than similar chains – I guess they would see themselves
as an upscale eversion of IHOP or Waffle House.
I am starving so I take something
savory and something sweet. The BELT Sandwich (ca. $7) is a BLT with a fried
egg. Despite the fact that the bacon is crispy and plenty, the lettuce and
tomato dominate the sandwich. They come with house potatoes, which are small
chunks of prefab steak fries (virtually tasteless). I choose a special, the
Banana Pecan Maple French Toast (ca. $9), which is essentially three pieces of
fairly dry banana bread with some pecans and some maple syrup.
VERDICT:
72/100
Perhaps my expectations were too high,
but J. Christopher’s is really not better than IHOP or Waffle House, though
smaller portions at slightly higher prices.
