| - I had been waiting to go to school for a long time. Wow, I think thats the first time I've ever said that, although now being a full-time work bot, I miss the days of fluctuating schedules, morning sleep ins and summers off. *Deep Exhalation*. I was never the best student in school...but when it comes to food, I'm an eager teacher's pet. Ready to soak in everything there is to learn.
Before heading over to School Bakery & Cafe, there was a lot of hype from friends who loved this Liberty Village jaunt. A few weeks back, on one of those fluke nice weather days, my partner and I jumped on our bikes and went on an adventure across the lakeshore. Not too long after we were hungry...we're not much of the sporty types. We veered our bikes in the direction of Liberty Village and decided we would 'take a break' for some brunch. I was pleasantly surprised by the decor. It wasn't overtly school cliche, but played with iconic items. An apple on each table, the menu written on lined school paper, girls dressed in American Apparel esque school uniforms, projection screen playing Betty Boop, and a few school items adorned on the walls. It was the perfect use of school. But now the important part, how did they interpret school on their menu. I was scared I'd see cafeteria favorites like: jamaican patties, subs, poutine, and dehydrated burgers...But of course not. School's menu is a creative interpretation of brunch classics.
We ordered:
FRESH SQUEEZED JUICES - Pineapple & Mint and he got Grapefruit.
Really good. It's actually 100% juice. Nothing better in the afternoon then a juice kick.
SMOKED SALMON ENDIVE SALAD which came with a Fried Egg, Home Fries in a warm Lemon-Dill Vinaigrette. I was surprised by the generous portion of salmon. It was a loaded salad but the flavors complimented each other; the endive balancing the creaminess of the other ingredients. Who would have thought to put home fries in their salad - Must have been a smart student.
PARMESAN-ASPARAGUS OMELET with Cracked Pepper, Home Fries & Greens. Enjoyed this all around. Egg was fluffy and was perfectly cooked. Love when its all yellow without any burns...hard to find in brunch spots. Would order this again.
I kept eyeing the spread of fresh baked goods on the counter but I had a long ride ahead of me and I don't think a gooey chocolate chip cookie would have served me so well. May have had to take another one of those 'breaks'. The bill came in a report card. How appropriate. Except this time I know I was a very good student! No 'S' or 'NI' for me! For School, I give them a G to VG for ambiance and food. I'll be back again.
