| - Can you eat out at awesome food joints that have all manner of goodies on their menu and still control yourself? As much as I wanted to indulge in some of the yumminess that kept jumping out of the menu at me, I was a decently good girl at breaky today.
A Sunday mid-day meal at OEB proved to be a busy time to hit up this local breakfast joint. We were there a bit early to secure a table for six or so of us. And while we waited, banana bread and coffee kept finding its way to us at the end of the line. Yay!
There were five of us that popped in for a table of six. A couple of moments later, two more joined our party... oh my, 7! Easy, peasy. OEB's staff was on top of it with an extra chair for the table before we could say "sunny-side up."
My breakfast was simple. Two overeasy eggs, two maple pork sausages, some potato wedges, toast and a glass of orange juice. My toast wasn't even buttered. I got to decide how much/little went onto those slices myself. That's a nice touch OEB. Even with a busy Sunday morning, there was no wait for our food. It all came out relatively quickly and at the same time.
The smoothies at the other end of the table looked pretty yummy. I'm gonna need to try me one of them next time! And the orange juice I had? The menu says it's a fresh juice... I hope it was squeezed 30 seconds before coming to my table for the $4 I paid for a small glass.
The staff impressed me, manoeuvering through such a tightly packed space, never bumping a chair or spilling a meal from what I could see. And always on the ball. That can't be easy. Also nice was that our bills came pre-split at the end of the meal.
Breakfast might be expensive, but I feel like there are a lot of extras built in. When I'm done being 'good' I'm so coming back for a plate of the Super Moist French Toast I saw sitting in front of Kaeleigh-and a Morning Glory.
