The Brewing Ground

Greek yogurt with granola, honey and berries!

$18

Ordered the famous brewer’s breakfast and I must say it really did not disappoint. Usually woudln’t gravitate towards big breakfasts at cafes, mostly because I feel like it can be made at home. But, this was soooo yummy! The scrambled eggs were done perfectly, not too mushy/milky. The sourdough was toasted to a perfect crisp, eaten with the cheesy sausage + maple bacon, it really was heavenly. Spinach and mushrooms had a super garlicky flavour which i loved too! This cafe is tucked away in a neighbourhood area, so i really liked the serenity and quietness of it all :)

Plumped for the Breakfast Burger. Very filling and hit the spot, recommended. A little tricky to find but worth seeking out and great service.

We prefer to customise a plate to our liking and on our most recent visit, this was what we chose:

- signature silky scrambled eggs ($5)
- thick slab maple bacon (3 pcs for $5)
- truly excellent crunchy hash browns that I know Burpple Tastemaker Fiona Ting is just as big a fan of (2 pcs for $5)
- sautéed mushrooms ($4.50)
- toasted brioche ($2)

Nothing better than to wash everything down with cups of strong black coffee.

Decided to tear myself away from ordering my usual fave - the Breakfast Burger, to try something different. The large golden sandwich featured slices of crisp sourdough squishing a triple threat of gooey-soft Gruyere, Emmental and Parmesan. It came with fresh mesclun salad to balance the richness. I could have added smoked salmon or thick-cut maple bacon ($5 each) but didn’t. Am glad because it would have been too much for me since I had a heavy meal later the same day.
