| - This past week, I went for Tuesday morning breakfast at Sammy's Family Restaurant, a true family-style restaurant in an old-fashioned Scarborough strip-plaza. (I like those old lights that hang outside each store showing 'restaurant' and 'barber shop'.) As expected, the inside is a little dated, but there are nice comfortable booths as well as tables, and pictures and plants for decoration. There is also a TV (possibly more than one) that was showing CP24 news. The service was very pleasant, and quite fast considering there was a steady stream of people in and out, a lot of whom were probably regulars as the waitresses knew them by name.
The menu is pretty standard for breakfasts: eggs and meat plates, omelettes, pancakes and French toast. There is also a kids menu section, and a separate lunch menu that I didn't look at. I ordered the French toast, with fruit added, and some nice hot coffee. The three slices of toast were very good, and the strawberries / banana / kiwi were fresh and plentiful. Overall, a great filling meal for $14. Good food, good service, homey atmosphere, and certainly a solid recommendation.
