The Cricket Country Kitchen is a lovely little diner that offers fresh breakfast options all day long. The meals are made from the finest ingredients and the diner itself is a happy, friendly place in which people can feel at home. In fact, there’s a legend behind the kitchen: When the owner purchased the space, she came across a box that contained a story about a girl named Penelope who was granted wishes by a little cricket; under dire circumstances, one of her wishes led to her being stuck in a mannequin so that she would be a part of the restaurant forever. Now, customers can see Penelope as they enjoy breakfast favorites such as biscuits and gravy, sausage patty sandwiches, and the Special K, which is diced ham and scrambled eggs on a homemade biscuit covered with country gravy and served with country potatoes.
