Best moment of Zen

With all due respect to the folks at The Daily Show With Jon Stewart, our favorite moment of Zen has less to do with rib-tickling irony than it does rib-sticking goodness. Which is what makes Orphan’s Zen Breakfast such a soul-centering experience. Plated with simmering egg whites, steamed spinach, sticky brown rice and tofu grilled in Orphan’s signature ginger-soy sauce, this hearty, flavorful dish is a testament to the homey establishment’s commitment to everyday mindfulness. Pair your meal with a cup of the restaurant’s intense Brazil Cerrado java, and you’ll leave this East Sacramento satellite cafe feeling like Caine from Kung Fu: calm, focused and ready for your next adventure. 3440 C Street, (916) 442-7370, wwww.orphanbreakfast.com.
