Nothing Special about Sbarro

When you’re in a city, it’s hard to find an independent restaurant which serves a good breakfast at a reasonable price. After wandering around Washington DC’s Union Station (including the food court), we decide that Sbarro has the best option which is closest to a traditional breakfast. The price isn’t bad but you get the unfriendly service to go with it. Neither the server or the chef looks happy. We get the choice of sausage links or bacon in our foil plate of hash brown onion fritter alongside an unsweetened roll which they name a biscuit. We’re then invited to seat on plastic seats which have stood the test of time in this rundown restaurant. There’s a mural which tries to capture the excitement of the early trains but it conflicts wildly with the red and yellow seating scheme. While we were eating the buffet was being prepared for lunch, and passers-by could have just helped themselves as it was that close and open to the concourse.
