When some of our friends work during the week, we have to schedule visits to restaurants to the weekend. We all decided that breakfast on Saturday would be a great idea, now that the weather is becoming a little warmer. But where to go? Some of our favourite places have sadly closed, so we started looking. Lynne discovered that Franck Dangereux is now providing breakfast at his restaurant, The Food Barn (in Noordhoek), and so we booked a table for four
Our table was booked for 9.30 and we were given a warm welcome
The breakfast menu is interesting and is not filled with lots of the conventional choices
Two of us plumped for the Mexican Eggs Rancheros;
a base of nicely spicy kidney bean chilli, topped with grilled cheese and two poached eggs
This was much enjoyed and the plates were scraped clean with the large slice of sourdough toast that accompanies it
and the Eggs Benny -
two poached eggs on a crisp potato rosti, enrobed with a perfect hollandaise sauce and sprinkled with chives,
was accompanied by smoked trout and some baby tomatoes
It is an all time favourite and lived up to expectations
As Pop Larkin says in The Darling Buds of May (Great fun and you can watch it on Britbox),
breakfast at The Food Barn was Perfick!
The bill was R290 a couple. We were rather tempted to stay on for lunch ....
