In my never-ending list of brunch places to try, Breakfast Table was another hot spot that I was impatient to check out. It is located on South Granville Street and its beautiful front makes it easily noticeable.
Like most popular brunch places they do not accept reservations, but they operate with a waiting list so it’s wise to go earlier rather than later.
The Food
Breakfast Table has an interesting brunch menu. It features classic breakfast dishes with an Asian twist.
Beef Bulgogi Hash ($19)
My partner went with the Beef Bulgogi Hash and it was an amazing choice. The hash browns were topped with carrots, sautéed mushrooms, green onions, two fried eggs, kimchi, spinach and sweet chili beef. This dish was very flavorful and well balanced. The veggies were very fresh and the beef tender. It was a great Asian take on a classic brunch dish. If you want, you can also substitute the hash browns with rice or shiitake fried rice for an extra couple of bucks.
Spicy Black Tiger Prawn Benedict ($22)
I was really excited to try the Spicy Black Tiger Prawn Benedict. However, my dish didn’t turn out to be as enjoyable as my partner’s. First off, it was not spicy at all. The béarnaise was good, but they were very light-handed. There was also a lot of empty spots on the muffins so, overall, it felt like something was missing. The dish tasted good, but I was a little disappointed. The veggies were however extremely well-cooked and seasoned.
The Drinks
Coffee & Mocha
The Mocha was delicious. They actually make their chocolate milk in-house, and I could taste the difference!
Overall
One meal was delicious, the other one was a little disappointing, so I am left with mixed feelings. I would not mind going back to Breakfast Table and explore more options to reevaluate my experience. Now, it was a little loud and the wait is long on weekends, so I think I’ll try my luck elsewhere before my next visit.
