From banh mi and burgers to sliders and reubens, the goal is to craft and catalog an archive of awesome that visitors and locals alike can reference when at their hungriest. They looked good, tasted amazing, and neither were reinventions of the wheel. I was amazed at how little shrapnel this beauty produced. Maple bacon. It could be crisper so that bites break up the pair of slices easier, but this stuff has great flavour and is quick to chew so no big deal.
Eggslut cooks their bacon a little longer. Bacon fat. Long live this droplet. Caramelized onion. Not that impactful. Be glad of it. It does its acidity and sweetness jobs without overwhelming the delicate eggs that ride on top of it. Soft scrambled eggs with chives. Fluffy and warm. A slice of processed American cheese. Adds viscosity and colour.
A very loose β almost liquid β garlic aioli, and lots of it! Could be better whipped and chilled. Note that The Doug is only available from 7am to 2pm at the Thurlow Street location. They also do a version called The Cascadia that sees mustard aioli and an over easy egg. Neither are available at the other 49th Parallel locations.
