BEST BREAKFAST • MILTON'S
The perfect Milton's breakfast isn't all about the delicious food or the handcrafted espresso drinks . . . but mostly about the warm, friendly atmosphere you get when you walk through the doors. It has a feeling of home and warmth that is hard to find. It seems that everyone knows you, and if they don't they will."
— Bree Fausnaught
Waitress at Milton's
BREE'S MONDAY MORNING RITUAL:
Dirty chai latte and a bubbly mimosa with the pancake breakfast (two pancakes, bananas or chocolate chips optional; two eggs; choice of bacon, sausage or ham), breakfast potatoes loaded with cheese and sour cream, and a split side of biscuits and gravy.

I really like to be cooking. That's what I love to do.I've been doing this for 20
years. I've done Latin American food, I've done a little bit of Asian food, but, my passion for the last 14 years has been Italian food. I really love to come to [Genovese] it's like my second house and I love to make people happy through the food. I think that's really important."

CHEF'S FAVORITE:
— Braised meat and seafood stew
Things change. It doesn't mean that Black is a bad player, or that he can't break out of this funk. Still, if Self is going to mix up his starters again, no one could blame him for inserting Embib.
WHAT MAKES GENOVESE "TOP OF THE HILL"-WORTHY?
Since then, Embibid has exploded on the court and in the national conversation, where the pundits who boasted about Andrew Wiggins being the number one overall pick in the NBA draft are starting to say the same things about the freshman from Cameroon.
We were told the seven-foot center would see a lot of time right away. In each of the last two games Embib played more than 20 minutes. Currently he's averaging 9.3 points and 6.6 rebounds per contest.
"Tojo can be as good as he wants to be." Black said earlier in the year. "It's my job to help him mature in his game, understand a couple of things and just help him with the little things on the court to make him that much better of a player."
The lajayhaws look to flow more freely when Embid is on the floor and his finishing ability seems to improve with each shot he takes.
— "Consistency is key for everything."

Sporting Kansas City players celebrate their win against Real Salt Lake for the 2013 MLS Cup. This is Kansas City's first professional sports title since 2000.
not enough to decide a factor of the MLC Cup on Saturday. It took 10 rounds of penalty kicks for Sporting Kansas City to defeat Salt Lake at Sporting Park. This was Kansas City's first professional sports title since 2000.
The game got off to a rough start. Sporting midfielder Oriol Rosell was substituted out in the eighth minute for Lawrence Olum. This substitution was made due to injury and was the earliest substitution in MLS Cup history. The opening minutes of the game were slow due to injuries and large stoppages of play.
"Half of the field was completely frozen," Sporting head coach Peter Vernes said. "It was almost unplayable."
Both head coaches had similar complaints about the field. But like Vermes said, "That's the beauty of sports, both teams have to play in it."
The first half did not have a lot of highlights. In the 29th minute,
