| - I came here last weekend during their soft opening phase and surprisingly, it wasn't busy. I expect that to change soon though because of the exposure they've been getting from Toronto media blogs and their growing Instagram following!
Upon walking in, this small place had a noticeably cute wall mural and some tables for eating in. There was also a cute pink neon sign by the counter for cute photos.
For those that haven't heard, this place specializes in delicious breakfast sandwiches that are stuffed with different meats and toppings between freshly baked soft buns. These breakfast sandwiches are a good size and definitely stuffed with more than just your average Tim Hortons or McDonald's breakfast sandwiches.
My husband and I got the seaside bae and the bae-sic sandwiches, as well as a hash brown. The seaside bae was made up of cured salmon, scrambled egg, arugula, chips, pickled shallots, and herbed mayo. It definitely suited the name - it was flavourful with just the right amount of salt and blend of herbs.
The bae-sic sandwich was anything but - it had pork belly sausage, fried egg, cheese, onions, tomato jam and their bae sauce which had a nice slight spice to it. Although we liked the seaside bae, this one was the definite winner between the two because of that sauce!
The hash brown was also tasty in its deep fried goodness and surprisingly filling for its small portion. It was a great side to the breakfast sandwiches we had.
The only (sort of) downsides were the price (almost $30 for the 3 items) and that the items were really oily. Then again, that's expected with all the deep fried items and despite the price, we really enjoyed our meal.
Overall, it fits right in with the Kensington vibe and it's comfort food at its oiliest. Wishing this place lots of success and we'll be back!
