I'm not a huge fan of breakfast foods but I could eat them every day if they were cooked at this diner.
When we arrived the diner was full but we only had a short five min wait for a table. The restaurant is small and yet it has a very comfortable and light feel to it. There are pictures of food on the walls which is always nice in a restaurant. They have a black board with where all their ingredients from Alberta listed. I was impressed by this. I love to support businesses with local background and supplies.
I absolutely love tea and I drink it all the time. I was pleasantly surprised to be offered sweetened or unsweetened ice tea. Ice tea made to order is to die for. The blue star diner sweetened ice tea was really tasty.
I ordered the salmon Benedict and it was very flavorful. You could tell it was made with fresh organic ingredients. My one big complaint was with the eggs. They asked me specifically if I wanted soft or hard poached eggs. I was very clear that I like mine as soft as possible. When my breakfast arrived the eggs were very over cooked. Still my dish was delicious. Had my egg yolks broken as they should have the dish would have been perfection.
My second favorite part of my dish was the potatoes. They were crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle and seasoned perfectly. Also they put some fresh tarragon over the potatoes.
My experience at this diner was fun and filling. The service was a little slow with regards to the breakfast but well worth the wait.
This diner is a diamond in the rough. If you are looking for a delicious and fresh meal then this is the place. I am excited thinking about the next time I try a dish at this restaurant.
