Good food, good coffee, good friends By GLENN KAHL The Bulletin Two restaurants in Ripon are the “people’s choice” for breakfast opening before dawn every morning of the week – Frank’s Place and My Garden Café. Both are located west of the old downtown in a shopping center at Wilma Avenue and West Main Street where certain farmers – regulars pretty much every day – go to be with friends and chat over their cups of coffee before daybreak. Those interested in more of a breakfast show up about 8:30 a.m. Frank Correa sold his restaurant on East Yosemite Avenue in Manteca about six years ago and opened Frank’s Place that has become one of the favorites to go for breakfast in Ripon.
