| - We live close to this place, and always see massive line-ups on weekend mornings. What, we mused, could be SO good for breakfast that so many people are willing to stand in line for so long to get it?
Well, we finally tried it, and all those people in line sure are not wrong! This place is freakin' awesome. The small restaurant has a fun and lively atmosphere, with friendly, quick service. And the menu.... oh my the menu. It is HUGE! Lots and lots to choose from, including items featuring pork belly, foie gras, and lots more delectable ingredients. Several of the meals come in a fun take-out style container - including the one Cole ordered, 'Soul in a Bowl'. It was delish, but a bit rich. Hence, the take-out container worked perfectly when he couldn't finish! It was just as delish re-heated later in the day!
I tried the 'Canadian, Eh" eggs benny - which comes with pea meal bacon - yum! I also had a tasty and fresh berry smoothie. Oh, and did I mention the duck-fat cooked potato wedges? Cause they were great.
My only 'complaint' about OEB is that the chairs at the long centre table did not have backs - something I really like on my chairs. BUT, otherwise the place was outstanding!! Great food, solid service, nice atmosphere! Can't wait to go back and try another of the 87254 things on the menu!
