I have yet to find my breakfast place in Toronto. What I really look for is someplace cheap that knows how not to mess up my eggs (that's a runny yoke with absolutely no uncooked egg white) and doesn't have to defrost their homefries, which you think would be easy but you would be surprised. So when I heard about this place just around the corner from the university I was thrilled. I decided to try it out with my friend on weekend.
So you would think sitting outside in the beating sun for an hour and a half in order to get into Saturday brunch would turn a girl off, but I saw it as a positive: I figured the hungrier I was the more amazing the food would taste: wrong.
Don't get me wrong, there was nothing horribly wrong with the food, but these are my issues:
- My eggs were undercooked
- The fruit on my plate looked like it had sitting in the sun as long as I had
- 15 dollars for eggs, bacon and a coffee isn't terrible, if all of these things are amazing, but this is a little mediocre.
- Last but not least, people need to learn how to season properly (I swear it makes everything better)
The service was pretty good and the waitress was very friendly and then the minute she dropped off our plates it was like we were invisible even though the place had significantly cleared out before that happened.
