Eggs Neptune in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina
In Pittsburgh you can get the Eggs-Benedict-with-crab thing at DeLuca's in the Strip District, but they don't call it Eggs Neptune. I think maybe it's just on there as Eggs Benedict with crab. They also throw some avocado on there. Holy moly. Anyway. It's good. *RICH* (obviously), but good.
Sugar Rush: Coffee Pocket
$1 is a ridiculous ripoff. You can get 5 of these for $2 here in Pittsburgh (@ PennMac in the Strip District).
But, these *are* delicious!

Mint juleps! Forget mojitos, I prefer this classic work of art in bourbon, mint, sugar and ice - the perfect compliment to relaxing on a porch swing or rocker.

Give me a refreshing Gordon's Cup made with cucumber and limes - you can add a splash of Midori for extra pizazz!

Cherry limeade, made with club soda and not plain water. Fizzy and fresh and cold, it hits all the right spots.
