This Sequel Is No Rocky IV


Elisa Ludwig checks out Sabrina’s Cafe and Spencer’s Too and finds it a worthy sequel to the much loved Bella Vista original.

What’s nice about SCST’s lineup is that it doesn’t sacrifice the hominess of comfort food in the name of innovation. Usually, you get both. There’s the regular stuffed French toast — half a loaf tented on your plate — with cream cheese and bananas, or the daily variety, which was a super-sweet orange-molasses-butterscotch flavor on a recent visit. There are gigantic polenta fries, golden bricks of fried cornmeal embedded with jalapeño peppers that, with a side of marinara sauce, are a meal in and of themselves.
