Wide Open Road. We lastly achieved operate out velocity this weekend in addition to made our agency upwards alongside a visiting friend to banking concern check it out. It's a rattling fashionable cafe alongside exposed brick, geometric lite fittings, a model bird hanging from the ceiling, a wall-mounted herb garden in addition to a minor light-filled dorsum room that nosotros parked in.
The bill of fare isn't loaded alongside vegetarian options in addition to has some rattling confused labelling (the baked eggs alongside iii kinds of cheese was 'vegan' in addition to my really vegetarian dish had a 'vegetarian selection available' - you're basically going to accept to ask). Still, what in that place is to select from is a chip to a greater extent than interesting than the criterion egg in addition to edible bean options. There's ricotta fritters alongside mushrooms in addition to a pea fondue ($16.50), a stinging nettle omelette ($14, which I'm assuming tin live done veg inward spite of the lack of a label) in addition to granola alongside house-made almond milk in addition to poached raspberry rhubarb ($12) - it all sounded pretty great.
Cindy stuck alongside the sweetness side of the menu, going alongside the poached pears on brioche alongside marscapone cream in addition to honeyed walnuts ($15.50).
It was artfully presented, alongside a 2 soft pear halves sprinkled inward sugarred-up nuts in addition to covered inward sweetness syrup in addition to a generous dob of marscapone. The brioche was cakey without beingness soggy in addition to Cindy was happy that they served upwards a whole pear rather than merely a few slivers.
After clarifying that it was really vegetarian, I ordered the poached eggs alongside chickpea panella, spiced kasundi in addition to herbed quinoa ($16).
The panella is basically a fried upwards chunk of chickpea dough in addition to served every bit a sort of surrogate toast inward this dish. It was lovely besides - dense without beingness heavy in addition to absorbent plenty to soak upwards the runny eggs. The kasundi was the highlight though - spicy in addition to tangy in addition to lifting this dish to something a chip fancier than merely eggs on toast. It was dainty to instruct a adept charge of greens every bit well.
Our dining companion ordered the baked eggs inward love apple tree sugo alongside soft gnudi (cheesy gnochhi) in addition to toast ($15.50)
It was breakfast alongside a spoon - loads of sauce in addition to some rattling squishy cheese dumplings topped alongside a yoke of baked eggs. It looked delicious.
We were all pretty impressed alongside Foxtrot Charlie - the iii dishes nosotros tried were executed perfectly. The staff were friendly in addition to the setting pleasant plenty - the sweets at the counter looked pretty decent every bit well.
Price-wise Foxtrot Charlie is sort of mid-range for Brunswick: non every bit expensive every bit Wide Open Road or Code Black, but pricier than The Green Refectory. The bill of fare doesn't accept in addition to thence much diversity that we'll live coming dorsum every weekend, but it's some other splendid cafe inward a suburb increasingly total of them.
