Sundays are made for breakfast, or brunch, or a big dinner... okay, food in general. We decided Sunday morning to head out to one of our newly re-opened favourite spots,
Campus Hi-Fi. They had suffered a pretty big and expensive
kitchen fire back in March, and I have been scoping out the location for the entire duration of renovations waiting for a sign they were back in business. Yesterday was our second time back since the fire, and it was everything we were hoping it would be. I ordered The Godfather Eggs Benny, and changed out the home-fries for poutine. I had no chance of finishing this, it was an enormous portion. I love the Hollandaise sauce, and the goat cheese made each bite so creamy. Nothing was out of place and I would order this every Sunday for the rest of my life if I could.
Godfather Eggs Benny - Goat cheese and crumbled sausage in tomato & spinach sauce, with poached eggs covered in Hollandaise sauce served with fruit and poutine
Scott ordered what used to be my staple - Shawn's Breakfast Poutine. While his came with toast that he loves to smother in jam, mine came with the fruit and had all the makings of amazing eggs Benedict. I am pretty sure this means I won this round of breakfast. You also can't really tell how deep this bowl of poutine goes. Don't worry, he was full!

While we may not be back next weekend, we will definitely be back - hopefully before all the students get back and make it busy again! There was no line at all, maybe people haven't realized they have re-opened yet. On weekends in the school year, people are regularly lined up out the door. The service was typical, and pleasant. We got our breakfast a lot faster than I thought we would. My biggest complaint is that they only accept cash or debit, since I typically don't carry cash and love using my MasterCard.
Likes: Poutine is amazing for breakfast. Eggs Benedict are perfection. I love the addition of goat cheese.
Dislikes: I need to use my credit card at every opportunity, and am sad this wasn't an option.
Food: 5/5
Service: 5/5
Would I go again?: Definitely. as soon as the guilt of poutine breakfast wears off.
