Southport Grocery and Cafe Description:
If you don't like kids or crowds, it's doubtful you'll enjoy the scene at this ever-packed neighborhood spot, where those in-the-know come in droves for brunch-like fare. Suck it up, we say, because the bites are satisfying enough to make you forget the tightly packed tables, gurgling tots and probable wait. The food, which comes from culinary school pals Lisa Santos and Emily Lamb, is modern and fun; the shop's grab-and-go baked and gourmet goods---though well-edited---are a sight to behold. Dishes that stay in our minds include the grown-up Pop Tart, a dough-encased treat that gushes with mascarpone, jam and walnuts when you dive in and the spinach-artichoke omelet, a refreshing take on the morning staple that's filled with artichoke and jalapeño-studded "dip." (The filling also can be purchased on the grocery side.) The far-from-dry scones are some of the best around, and the cupcakes alone are worth their weight in pounds.
