| - Dropped by Littlefish today on the recommendation of a fellow yelper and I have to say I wasn't disappointed with the spread!
My friend was in from out of town and we were looking for some decent brunchy vegetarian options that were filling AND tasty, not always an easy find in the city, oh did I mention we didn't want to spend more than about $10 a pop?
So as I was saying.
I went in, convinced I was going to purchase the French Toast with fruit compote and creme fraiche ($8) but my eyes wandered, just for a moment to the savoury BLAT (the Jill's Choice) which also included two fried eggs in the middle of the bacon-y/avocado-y goodness. (also $8) and my mind was set.
That plus the bottomless coffee ($2.25) called for a very filling meal. The sandwich came on my choice of rye bread and was impressively stacked, I jokingly complained that I couldn't get my mouth over it and was ribbed by our server into bucking-up and accepting the mess that would spill over as part of the experience. She was right, I gave in and never looked back.
I especially loved that the BLAT(with egg) had a good amount of bacon on the TOP and the BOTTOM of the egg heap, there's nothing worse than a place that skimps the 'B' in a BL/A/T.
My friend chose the Mac'n'Cheese which was still sizzling by the time it landed on our table, gooey cheesy noodles covered in a crunchy-cheese topping. She was pretty ecstatic. We dug in, and everything was alright.
Service was great, we got lots of water and coffee refills and the restaurant (1pm on a Tuesday) was really relaxed and helped with the 'brunchy' atmosphere, giving us enough time to digest before we left, our wallets and bellies happy.
EDIT: Have now eaten the French Toast, was redonkulously delicious and left nary a crumb, the cinnamon maple syrup was also basically spooned off the plate into my mouth. YUM.
