EMMI’s, 45 N Baldwin Ave, Sierra Madre CA 91024
I was surprised when long-time coffeehouse, Beantown, closed in downtown Sierra Madre but EMMI’s is definitely an improvement. It’s locally owned by the same people who own Poppy Cakes, so the pastries and bread are freshly baked. Pastries include croissants, cookies, muffins, and donuts.
The breakfast menu includes pancakes, toasts, corned beef, and breakfast burritos. For lunch, choose from sandwiches, burgers, and salads. There’s a kid’s menu. The options for vegans are limited but they do have a vegan burrito with tofu.
Pancake stack ($13): 3 Grist & Toll Sonora flour pancakes, pure maple syrup, and butter on the side. These were big, moist, fluffy, tender pancakes. The flour has a nuttier, whole grain flavor. If I had to nitpick, I wish the edges were slightly crispy and they could have added buttermilk for a bit more flavor.
Drip coffee ($3, with refills): strong, dark, good price too.
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served and there’s a full espresso bar, grab n’ go hot breakfast sandwiches and burritos. It’s a cute space – brick wall, children’s drawings on the wall. There’s a station where you can get water, utensils, hot sauce, salt & pepper, etc. Order and pay at the counter. Grab a number. They’ll bring your food to your table. Free wi-fi is available.

POPPIES. THERES FUCKING POPPIES ON THEIR WEDDING CAKE. IT WAS LITERALLY ALWAYS ABOUT JACKIE. IT WAS NEVER ABOUT EACH OTHER THEIR RELATIONSHIP ITSELF IS A MEMORIAL TO JACKIE. NOT ONLY DOES SHAUNA HOLD ONTO THE DRESS JACKIE LOST HER VIRGINITY IN, BUT SHE MAKES HER A PART OF HER MARRIAGE TOO. JEFF WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE REPLACEMENT. JACKIE HAUNTS THE NARRATIVE ONCE MORE. IF JACKIE GOT TO HAVE A WEDDING DO YOU THINK SHE WOULD HAVE PUT POPPIES ON HER WEDDING CAKE? DO YOU THINK SHAUNA WAS THINKING THIS EXACT THING WHEN PICKING ONE OUT? DO YOU THINK SHAUNA WAS PICTURING HERSELF AS JACKIE, OR PICTURING HERSELF BESIDE JACKIE? AND DO YOU THINK WHEN SHE ATE THE CAKE SHE IMAGINED IT BEING JACKIE? SHE COULD STILL TASTE JACKIE IN HER MOUTH? DID YOU KNOW THIS IS DRIVING ME INSANE

"... I don't think we should eat it, though."
Happy birthday, CORE! We celebrate your existence with a... Quiche!
Thanks to everyone for contributing ingredients to the entire operation! You can check through it with the #core bday cake. I'm sorry I couldn't get to everyone!
They, uh, didn't really have nearly enough ingredients to make an actual cake, but I'm sure Poppy appreciates it all the same!

Fern holy shit!
+random doodles underneath
Ok so firstly The drawings of them boxing was based off an idea that they probably do boxing or something similar to relieve stress/anger (it’s also based off of Cass and how she used to be a wrestler).
Also drew them with Hunter since they have the same VA + I think an interaction between them would be interesting based on what’s shown about their personalities so far
I wanna wait to add more bc I know this whole thing will collapse by the next episode

Bobby loves to cook and bake. One of her philosophies is the fastest way to a dear friend's heart is through their stomach. She dreams of becoming a baker but a part of her is still loyal to her father's very successful pizzeria chain. She used to work there as a waitress and chef but the girl is ready to move on in pursuit of her own dreams.
Yet due to some questionable aspects of her past, memories Bobby has asking her father to let her friends play arcade games and jump in the ball pit for free (or at least at a generous discount) have soured to the point that she begins to resent the business and even the pizza served there. She can't stand pizza! Jokes on her, all of her friends love it. What is a girl to do?

"You're going to have a great time."
"No no no no!"
"You might meet some new people."

"You'll even make some new friends!"
"No no no no no no no no!"
"Nononononono-"
