  • Went for a late lunch today with the wifey. This place is pretty new and the reviews seemed pretty good so we decided to check it out. We were greeted by a very friendly server and sat promptly. For whatever reason it's become a routine for us to want our eggs late in the afternoon typically on Sundays but I was also fighting a mean craving for a sandwich. At last I ordered the Kingpin Sandwich. The description of it had everything; eggs, French toasted bread (which I assume was some sort of attempt at brioche? The menu doesn't say what kind of bread it comes with), scallions, spicy aoili, a pork patty and aged cheddar. Regrettably @TheDailyYYC, it was not good. I understand that aged white cheddar can be quite strong and an acquired taste, that of bleu cheese or say a strong Swiss. In this instance I'm going to say it is not a compliment to the rest of the dish. Again, maybe it was just my own personal taste or my taste buds not really liking it but I just felt like I was eating something that had already spoiled in each bite. The "French toast" was soggy and greasy. The fat that it was glistening in didn't taste like butter but instead leftover fat from a flat top grill. Bacon fat...??? Not too sure what it was cooked in but it made the sandwich have this strong greasy odour about it. Eggs, same idea. Tasted like it was thrown on the flat top with the rest of the ingredients and then plopped onto the sandwich. It was also lacking any trace of scallions. Chipotle aoili was unnoticeable, no heat, no flavor. And the pork patty was a little bland as well. Thankfully the dish also had a hearty helping of The Daily's "Smashed Potatoes". Think cooked baby potatoes, smashed with a flat object, fried, tossed with some rosemary, sea salt and served right on the plate whole. Simple and delicious. My only gripe about them is that I feel that were a little out of place with the Breakfast food. Something that would be a definitely welcome companion to a nice steak or other such grilled meat. I have a whole other review for my parter in gluttony's dish which was the corned beef sandwich with garlic fries. But I'm sure I've bored you all already with my current one. Long n short of it; it would be nice to have some kind of mayo on it or maybe make it with a coleslaw but again, personal preference. The sandwich otherwise was good. Chewy meat! Garlic fries, meh. Garlic was bunched at the bottom of the bowl and didn't coat the fries well enough. Just tasted like regular fries. Recommend rosemary fries if they're seasoned anything like the smashed potatoes. Regrettably we didn't get to try their soup of the day as they had no soup. Our server was good, attentive and friendly. I don't think she was able to pick up on any cues when I didn't enjoy my food or when we wanted the bill though. I will likely give this place another shot in the future to try something else on the menu. For now, I'll leave this review and move on to the next. I also want to apologize for not bringing my experience with the Kingpin sandwich to anyone's attention. Thanks for reading!
