Most breakfast spots give you a booth and a parking lot view. This one in Norman gives you a runway. Small planes and private jets roll past the dining room windows while plates of pancakes land on your table, and nobody charges extra for the show.

The city does not market itself as a luxury destination, and that is the appeal: no velvet rope, no crowds, and the golf neighborhoods, lakefront streets, historic hotel and gallery village all within a 25-minute drive of each other.
