Last weekend, I had a good friend in town from Newport Beach who insisted on 
Mama's in North Beach for brunch. Fearing the restaurant's 
legendary hour+ wait, I had successfully avoided the place until then. I mean, I just don't like eggs 
that much. But it was the one and only thing on her to-do list for the weekend, so I obliged. Here is the photographic evidence from our expedition, including rarely-seen glimpses of the inside of the legendary Mama's on Washington Square.
