Breakfast at Sunshine Spot - Quick and Tasty

Weekend mornings are for big breakfasts, ones that make you wonder how in the world you finished that when on a weekday a bowl of cereal is all you eat.  But eat we do and it was tasty at the Sunshine Spot.

In North York near Yonge and Sheppard, it's surprisingly not bustling with breakfast or brunch options given the huge number of condos in the area.  So, we head a little east near Bessarion subway station to a little breakfast place called Sunshine Spot.  Tucked away in a little plaza, it's next to Taro's Fish and offers a decent breakfast menu of an all day breakfast, omelettes, eggs benny, waffles and pancakes, and sandwiches.

First Impression:  Nice neighbourhood breakfast spot with an open kitchen
Several Impressions later:  Always good for a big and tasty breakfast!

We've been here a few times but here is what we ate most recently...

Food

The food is prepared in an open kitchen so you can see your meal being made which is nice and really gives that home cooked feeling.

Eggs benedict

The eggs benedict was pretty standard but definitely tasted good; beautifully runny eggs on peameal bacon and an english muffin.  And the peameal bacon was cut thick!  (Yums!)  I almost couldn't finish it all!  Potatoes were good and plentiful.  Hollandaise sauce was okay but a bit light on flavour though.  Price is on par with other establishments.

All day breakfast: 3 eggs + bacon + home fries + toast (sausage was part of a side order)

The all-day breakfast is $8 and is quite large, look at the amount of bacon!!  You can opt for sausage or ham instead of bacon but I don't remember how many pieces are served.  Eggs are also made the way you like them.

They also offer a kid's menu, items come with juice or milk.

Service

Nice and fairly quick most of the time.  You can definitely take your time to enjoy your meal.


Overall, this is definitely a great place to start your day!
