| - after a long train ride, a horrendous experience at crescent sushi yesterday, just a generally exhausting day, and a long sleep the first thing on my mind this morning was that i needed to get a good breakfast, i had a look online and found that Allo! Mon Coco was the nearest one, i'd never been and it wasn't a name i'd recognized but i decided to give it ago.
after arriving the service was prudent, seated us immediately and actually came to ask us for our order before we'd decided (not a common thing) the first thing i noticed was the coffee... it was spectacular, not at all what i'd expected and a pleasant surprise, a good sign to say the least.
a few minutes later they brought my full meal, philly steak benedict... boy oh FUCKIN BOY it was absolutely incredible. everything about it was good, the eggs were cooked perfectly, there was just enough steak, the bread was cooked perfectly to be just the right amount of crispy and the seasoning was magnifique. along with the main meal was a side of potatos and a bowl of fruit, also good but a bit of a difficult thing to mess up.
needless to say i'll likely be returning here by the end of my trip, probably for the pancakes next time!
