Side of jazz with your pancakes? At Pleasant Hill’s Smokin Okie, the extensive list of pancakes, omelets, breakfast burritos, and country potatoes aren’t all that’s on the menu. On Sundays, starting at 9:30 a.m., a talented jazz duo called the Smith/Stern Duo will make sure your morning is served sunny-side up. Just in case you need to get your strength up for toe tapping, the Smokin Okie serves a side of barbecued meats—including ribs, brisket, and links—in addition to the usual breakfast ham, sausage, and bacon. If the music doesn’t make your kids dance for joy, the Mickey Mouse pancakes will get them moving like Steamboat Willie.

Bio
I grew up gigging with my dad, a pianist and composer. He taught me hundreds of Jazz standards and lots of Blues. I sing and play guitar, upright bass, and keyboards.
