When I attended Classen School of Advanced Studies some 20-odd years ago, for most breakfasts (and some lunches) we would typically sneak off campus as soon as the bus dropped us off, spending a few bucks at the Braum’s right up the street; we probably ate way too many useless breakfast sandwiches, but, to be fair, it was the only restaurant open within walking distance that allowed us to order and be back in time for first period.
Having recently been to Café Antigua, 1903 N. Classen Blvd, however, I wonder if our then-nubile teenage hunger-pangs would have accepted their Guatemalan cuisine on a semi-regular basis if it was around back then; as I sat there in their spacious digs, I truly think that it would’ve been a more than acceptable substitute, especially at a school where pretension of all disciplines reigned supreme.
