| - Found this place on Yelp after doing a search for a breakfast place near Sherway Gardens and I got excited with all the ratings. No wait, that's a lie - it was the frequent mention of Nutella on the menu that caught my eye. Although I had my heart set on something with Nutella, I opted for their Eggs Freddy.
Eggs Freddy (aka Eggs Benny) - You get the usual 2 English muffins with peameal bacon and poached eggs. I had completely forgotten to mention how I like my eggs nor did the waitress ask but I was pleasantly surprised when the eggs were poached perfectly, runny. The hollandaise sauce was good and wasn't overly yolky or lemony. I thought it was just right. With my eggs benny, I got their golden home fries which were pretty good. A little on the starchier side but I liked how it wasn't fried, but rather baked. Overall platter gets a rating of 4/5.
Bacon - My friend and I got a side of bacon and I was a little disappointed with the bacon. I know, right?! That's just wrong to even say and admit. I found it a little on the chewier side. It reminded me of chewing on some beef jerky, to be honest, though it wasn't that bad. I'd probably still order it though just to give it another shot. 3.5/5.
Freddy's Caramel French Toast - I'm pretty picky with my french toast so this wasn't my first pick, but my friend's. I must say though that theirs was actually quite good. Minus the super sweet caramel, the toast itself was nicely battered and grilled; it wasn't too dry which is one of the main mistakes when making french toast. A little too sweet for my tastebuds but if you have a sweet tooth, then this would be a great choice. It was also a very generous serving. 4/5.
