Eating Out: The Green Edge

I have eaten out a couple of times in specific circumstances of late. The trick is to go early, before it gets crowded, and get an outside table. The Green Edge has an outside booth that is great. It is tucked away out of the sun, away from other tables, and comfortable to sit in when you have a dodgy shoulder and back. Though given that we are kicking off with a new wave of a more infectious variant, ever rising numbers, and a government who is determined to do nothing to control it, I suspect even with my precautions eating out is about to become a thing of the past again. Once again I say, there is a pandemic, wear your goddamn mask and be sensible and considerate. Please. The Green Edge is a long time favourite of mine, and you can see previous posts about it here.

I met up with a friend one early morning when I was dropping some things off for a bake sale. I tried the Brekky Burger, which is sausage pattie, fried egg, hash brown, rocket, caremlised onion, and tomato relish on a milk bun. It also normally comes with southwestern sauce, but that is full of capsicum so I left it off. This was good, though very messy to eat.



My friend had the Southern Crispy Chick'n Pancake, pancakes topped with crispy chicken, bacon, house dressing, hot sauce and maple syrup.



I grabbed a takeaway wrap as well, their Satay Chicken Wrap. This is delicious, their satay sauce is one of the best. The only issue was as it is premade, I had to pick out the capsicum and raw onion. I wish they would sell their satay sauce in tubs!



One Saturday, I stopped in for a quick early morning breakfast before I started work at 9am at our clinic over that side of town. I was excited to try their tofu scramble, and I am happy to report that it was excellent! It is scrambled with mushrooms and served with wilted greens, sourdough, and grilled tomato. I also added a hashbrown. And my normal beverage of choice, a turmeric latte.



My last visit I got the Eggs Benni, which I have had before. But it is a good benedict! Poached eggs (with no coconut or sweet potato in sight), ham, and avocado on an English muffin and Hollandaise sauce, with a hash brown on the side.



I was there with a friend that time, she got the breakfast burger that I posted about above. But at the end we split a S'mores Hot Chocolate. I'm glad that we split it, because it was delicious but could easily have been a bit too much. A large mug of hot chocolate, with chocolate and biscoff crumbs around the edges, topped with soy whipped cream and mini marshmallows. This is one of the current specials, and it sure is special.



Hope you are all hanging in there. I know you are waiting for cute cats, and they will come back. I just need a bit of time. Maybe that doesn't make sense, but it is where I'm at.
