Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, or so they tell us. Of course, hardly anyone actually eats breakfast, unless you consider a piece of toast or half a bagel washed down with a slurry of strong coffee a proper breakfast.

But if you’re one of those folks with the time and intestinal fortitude to tackle a full-on meal early in the morning, welcome to Eggs-Cetera Cafe (6346 Lantana Road, Lake Worth, 561/968-8200), a cozy little breakfast and lunch joint at Lantana and Jog Roads.

It’s a cute little space with some outside dining, nothing fancy, which pretty much describes the extensive menu of familiar, comforting breakfast and lunch dishes. There are, of course, all manner of egg dishes, omelets and pancakes, as well as waffles, crepes and variations (lobster, salmon, steak) on the Benedict theme, along with juices and espresso.

At lunch there’s a roster of composed salads, sandwiches and burgers, plus seafood dishes from fried shrimp to grilled fish tacos and a handful of small plates. Prices are pretty reasonable, with almost everything on the menu coming in under $10 so if you are one of those people who eats a hearty breakfast, you won’t choke on the bill.
