Editorial Review for Big Kitchen – by Maren Dougherty
In Short
Northern California transplants will feel at home at this neighborhood breakfast and lunch spot. Located on a quiet street between earthy boutiques, Big Kitchen's inside dining area is covered with liberal posters, 70's memorabilia and knick-knacks from around the world. Sit down at the retro wood counter and order a hearty omelet with home fries or one of the popular sautéed veggie dishes. For lunch, ask about specials like the hot meatloaf sandwich.

When you walk through the doors of the big kitchen you are transported to another place in time. It might exist in the 40's, parked right up against a train depot in the dusty outback of san jose. Their sense of history covers the walls. Photographs of celebrities and politicians juxtaposed with friends and family, passerby's and patrons. The food is honest, no frills eats. I highly reccomend the tofu rancheros or world famous flapjacks smothered in whipped butter and warm maple syrup. Big kitchen is somewhat of a South Park cornerstone so be prepared to wait a bit on the weekends, the good news? there are plenty of shops and storefronts to keep you busy!
Pros: The place bursts with personality, excllent service and good eats.
Cons: on the small side, but i suppose that's part of it's charm!
