When people picking or discussing popular weekend breakfast spots, Bistro Alegria is not a place that often gets mentioned. I believe a lot of people are unaware that this restaurant, often thriving and bustling with customers most nights would serve big hearty breakfasts early weekend mornings. Bistro alegria is probably one of my favourite places to have dinner and currently the only restaurant I visit multiple times in a year. The food and dessert are all made by the chefs in house and is consistently spectacular.
Despite knowing about breakfast at Alegria for a while now, this was actually my first opportunity to make it out there on Sunday morning. The menu is considerably smaller but offers all the favourites with a Mediterranean twist.
Spanish omelette with jamon, feta, confit potatoes and roast capsicum
The Spanish omelette was served in a decent sized paella pan and filled with generous amount of jamon and the confit potatoes were full of flavour. It was a big meal and must of contained about 4 eggs and was served with a thick slice of grilled sourdough. It definitely more than I could ever eat for breakfast...or any other meal for that matter.
Mediterranean Breakfast
Alegria's version of the big breakfast was definitely big. There were thick slices of house made honey bacon, juicy heirloom cherry tomatoes, fresh avocados, watercress, mushrooms and haloumi and two massive slices of grilled sourdough.
The food here is amazing, and serving sizes are always gigantic; big eaters don't need to worry about being left hungry after a meal. The coffee here is pretty average, but you wont really have room for anything else after a breakfast. Their tea selection is pretty unique though if you're after a hot cuppa.
