Looking for fancy oatmeal

[jerseytomato]

A friend recently saw on the news a story about a place in center city that makes fancy oatmeal- with flavors like pumpkin and french toast. They couldn't remember the name of the place and a google search is not turning up anything. Anyone know what place this is?

There's a place on 21st street between Race & the Ben Franklin Parkway...can't remember the name, but it's directly across the street from the Franklin Institute (current home of the Tut exhibit), and around the corner from Cherry Street Tavern - they've got some "premium" oatmeal.

The Metropolitan Cafe in Old City has good oatmeal. It isn't flavored, but they do give you maple syrup and butter with it and it's fantastic.

It could be Grocery. I believe they have a gourmet oatmeal bar. It's on 13th Street bwtn Chestnut Walnut (across from Lolita).

In fact, we were just at Grocery Cafe not half an hour ago and noticed the oatmeal menu. We didn't have the oatmeal but they have the steel cut oatmeal, plus an 'oatmeal bar' with various fruits, nuts, syrups, rum raisins, etc. I don't think the oatmeal itself is flavored though.

I saw the report too. I think the place is more in the area of 20th and Market. It seemed to be a lot older than Grocery, but I don't know the name.
