Nice review of Citrus!

"In Chapel Hill, the breakfast offering at Citrus is, shall we say, a bit more sophisticated. Executive chef Marcos Lucera, who owns the restaurant with partner Tom Meier, whips up an eye-opening offering that includes chorizo con huevos, Cordon bleu omelet, banana and candied pecan pancakes with praline sauce, and a positively bistro-esque hash of fresh and smoked salmon. Coffee is freshly ground, and juices freshly squeezed.
The Citrus lunch menu is similarly impressive, with options including Scottish cold-smoked salmon salad, open-faced shrimp salad sandwich on toasted focaccia, and grilled beef tenderloin with horseradish mayo on demi-baguette. Lucera cleverly echoes the restaurant's name and cheery decor with a citrus theme recurring throughout the breakfast and lunch menus -- the orange custard batter in French toast, for instance, and a twist on the classic salade Nicoise featuring pan-seared scallops and a lemon-feta vinaigrette.
Citrus is open 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. It's a little hard to find, in the residential section of Southern Village. But it's definitely worth seeking out."
