A great choice for breakfast in downtown Toronto!
You know you're in a great restaurant when you see a line of customers waiting to be seated in the small restaurant. Lucky for me I was traveling solo and snagged a seat at the counter.
There were so many items on the menu that looked delicious. I told them that I never had the peameal bacon (Toronto's signature dish), so I ordered the breakfast plate. It was nothing like I expected. I really imagined for some reason smashed peas and bacon, but what it really is pork loin rolled and cured in corn meal.
The texture and taste, reminded me of spam as I took a bite into it.
The staff here were all very nice, attentive and very friendly. They really do know how to please their customers. I was checked on quite often while they ensured my coffee was topped off.
If you're looking for a place to eat around Dundas and Yonge, I highly recommend a visit to the historic The Senator. Founded in 1929, it claims to be the oldest restaurant in Toronto.
