Your Editor meeting some Belgian breakfast fans while a the man in front cranes his neck towards his breakfast. |
This
place is popular. To enjoy this restaurant you have to be willing to stand
outside for half an hour before they find a place for you to sit. Whilst
standing in the cold doesn’t exactly warm the cocklesas a restaurant
welcome, it did give us a chance to relive the experience of queuing for night
clubs and theme park rides and also the chance to meet some of the very
friendly tourist/hipster clientele that keep the tables so very full.
Once
inside myself and (see breakfast No.11) John Risky did the decent thing and
allowed a couple of chilly fellow diners to join us at our table in what was a
winning move in the blog's first game of diner Tetris.
Fry-up Turncoat |
The
Breakfast
After
such a mouth-watering wait I decided to go for the 'Full Monty' which was a
round £10. The atmosphere in the place was laid back and spirits were
high but I recoiled in horror and started to seriously doubt my dining partners
commitment to fry ups when he didn't order one. Shocking.
Zippy! |
The
breakfast is costly and does not include a cup of tea but nevertheless it justified
the expense. The 'toasted Multigrain Bloomer' was great quality and were a
great stage for the eggs. Mushrooms and black pudding were lovely. The tomato
could have been fried a bit longer but it went well with the 'home-style fried
potatoes'. Not sure what made them home-style. The sausage was great; herby and
lovely when cut in half and wrapped in half the toast.
Overall
it's a great place to eat. They're really friendly there, the food is good, and
it's a cosy place to sit and chew over the issues of the day. It was a great
meal.

Needless to say afterwards I was a full English. 8/10. Could have thrown tea in.
