Over Easy in Toronto
Almost three weeks have past since our sojourn to Toronto. One of our favourite meals was at Over Easy in the Entertainment District. As the name implies, they serve breakfast all day long. So why has it it taken me so long to write about it? Because I would have to admit to y’all that I had poutine for breakfast and loved it!
Now in my defense, it wasn’t really poutine (even though they called it such on the menu). It was more like a hearty breakfast casserole with the inclusion of authentic cheese curds instead of grated cheese. Specifically, there was a layer of hash browns topped with bacon and smoked ham, cheese curds, and two poached eggs. That was smothered with a lemony hollandaise. The meal was loaded with carbs, fat and calories and my oh my, was it delicious.
D very sensibly chose eggs Florentine which included fresh spinach. This great place also serves home made brown toast and an excellent glass of oj.
Unfortunately, the coffee was horrible or I could have sat there all day. The decor was cheerful and cozy and I loved the fresh colours.
