| - Turns out, walking down Bellevue Street was one of my best decisions of the day. I literally stumbled upon The Bellevue. We didn't even know the name of this establishment because only a mysterious exclamation point graces the storefront signage.
Seating inside was limited and when it was suggested that my friend and I crunch up at the bar by the door, we opted out for the patio. It was surprisingly full for a November day, but there was still plenty of room. Very cute wooden tables and chairs. Menus were scarce so we had to share, NBD.
We ordered coffees and they were quite strong! Very good with the provided cream and the raw sugar. Bringing us stirring spoons was mentioned, but they never did make it to the table.
I got the omelette of the day which included three types of fancy mushrooms, caramelized red onions, and goat cheese. Basically, my mouth is watering as I write this. It came with bacon, a mixed green salad, red chilies in oil, a few roasted cherry tomatoes and buttered sour dough bread from Woodlot. Mouth is still watering. I love Woodlot and I loved using their bread as a vehicle to put all of the above on one slice. Everything was amazingly fresh and was only more delectable when I put it all together. My only qualm was that the omelette was pretty runny, and my preference does not align with runny eggs. However, they did not scrimp on any of the mentioned ingredients and I'm excited to see what other combinations they come up with.
I'm not sure who our server was. There were so many people helping us out! Hopefully the tip went to the right person, though I'm not certain on who that person is. For two omelettes and two coffees, with tax and tip, the bill came to a cool $20 per person. I found it to be worth it and I look forward to a dinner and eating in the coziness of inside.
