  • Doughnut Love – Breakfast Sandwich

    Doughnut Love – Breakfast Sandwich

    You probably already know that I am big fan of Doughnut Love, my local gourmet doughnut shop. Their apple fritters and their old-fashioned style doughnuts are absolutely spectacular.

  • Chicken and Waffles at Jimmy’s Lunchbox in Maple Ridge

    Chicken and Waffles at Jimmy’s Lunchbox in Maple Ridge

    Jimmy’s Lunchbox where you can get a variety of diner style classics including breakfast, brunch, or lunch menu items, but for me, it is their chicken and waffles that steals the show.

  • Breakfast at Wendy’s; Follow Up

    Breakfast at Wendy’s; Follow Up

    I recently posted about the new Wendy’s breakfast menu and the pictures I shared were total garbage – probably a result of me touching the camera lens with a greasy finger! So of course, in the name of journalist integrity, I had to try more of the Wendy’s breakfast menu. You know, just to get…

  • Wendy’s Baconator; The New Breakfast Menu

    Wendy’s Baconator; The New Breakfast Menu

    Recently Wendy’s rolled out a new breakfast menu. So naturally, I had to try a couple of their items. Seeing as I am a big time fan of the Wendy’s Baconator burger, I decided to try the new Baconator Breakfast sandwich. The Breakfast Baconator is very heavy on the bacon. And unlike some other fast…

  • Bacon and Eggs for Breakfast

    Bacon and Eggs for Breakfast

    Arguably, my favourite meal is bacon and eggs. And, I am getting to liking the texture of eggs when I cook them in cream. This time, unlike the last time I tried to cook eggs in cream, I persevered and cooked the eggs sunny side up – in the cream. Same routine, pour the cream…

  • Eggs Poached in Cream

    Eggs Poached in Cream

    On a recent trip to the cabin I tried poaching eggs in cream and the results were pretty darn delicious. I started my breakfast prep by baking a pan of brown sugar bacon in the oven. Then I heated my non-stick skillet to a medium-low temperature before scooping a tablespoon or two of bacon fat…

  • Breakfast at the Fraser Park Restaurant

    Breakfast at the Fraser Park Restaurant

    I went for breakfast at the Fraser Park Restaurant on Saturday morning. I have mixed feelings about it. The restaurant is well known for massive servings of food with an emphasis on meat. I overhead the guy at the table beside me say, “I prefer quality over quantity,” and well, you certainly do a lot…

  • Starbucks Carved Ham and Swiss Sandwich

    I have to admit, I have not been happy with the last few breakfast sandwiches I’ve bought from Starbucks. The bacon sandwiches have seriously under cooked and stringy bacon and the roasted ham sandwiches have had an odd chemical-like smell and taste. Not a happy Starbucks customer. And then they brought in the carved ham…

  • Coming Home Cafe New Westminster

    Catching up on a couple blog posts that were left as drafts before I took off with my kids for an 8 day trip to the interior of BC. This one is really simple, great Eggs Benedict with good pan fried potatoes at the funny little restaurant called the Coming Home Cafe in uptown New…

  • We Cook Scrambled Eggs Gordon Ramsay Style

    On my most recent trip to the family cabin my daughter and I tried cooking scrambled eggs Gordon Ramsay style – and I would say we had some success. Have a look. https://youtu.be/ey4lLTcgj50
