Don't Get Fresh

On Saturday, I went to Fresh for brunch. I always thought they only made juice. Turns out they also do vegetarian dishes. The inside of the Bloor and Spadina store was bright and airy, with cheery paint colours and patterns. The tables were small and tightly squeezed, they really want to pack 'em in.

Both orders came in at $13: a full breakfast and a blueberry pancake. Now for the individual selections. The home-fries were good; the toast, beans, and grilled spinach were mediocre. I thought the pancakes were a little too thick to be enjoyable after a few bites. This was the second vegan eggs I had (the other at Hogtown Vegan). No, just no. The texture was wrong and the taste didn't match. This is simply a bad idea. Surprisingly, the sausage was excellent, quite similar to the real thing with a good chew and just the right amount of saltiness.
