Restaurant: Cafe Grand in NDG
Ok - so breakfast at Cafe Grand wasn't
romantic. The place is kind of stiff looking, like it could easily be a
bar. The new additional restaurant area (added about 1-1/2 years ago) makes the place seem very awkward,
with only a narrow space remaining in front of the cash.
But
we didn't go there to pay, we went there to eat something decent for
breakfast. It was already 10:50AM on a Monday morning and so were happy
that they the breakfast option was still available. They have a really
tiny kitchen and there is no way they could offer lunch and breakfast at
the same time.
I ordered their breakfast
sandwich (7$), while my boyfriend had the Grand Breakfast (14$). While
both included bacon, sausage, and eggs, the sandwich was served on a
buttermilk biscuit with melted cheddar cheese. The Grand Breakfast, also
included Italian sausage, toast and potatoes.
The
breakfast sandwich was quite impressive, with the top half of my
biscuit toppling over within minutes of its arrival. It was generously
packed with deliciousness. It even had melted cheddar cheese on both
sides of the egg and sausage bundle!
The
Cafe plate was rudimentary, nothing special, nor would I expect it to
be, the beauty of eggs is in their simplicity! The eggs were made as
ordered (lightly turned), the bacon was crispy and the potatoes were
done to be crispy on the outside and soft inside.
For
me, I thought the breakfast sandwich was a better value, at 7$ I got
pretty much everything my boyfriend had on his plate, but I got the bonus of
the buttermilk biscuit which I felt was quite yummy!
Oh, and they have very very very good coffee, and refill you cuppa regularly, that is a nice touch!
