In my first blog about Stacked Modern Diner I had been there for lunch but upon seeing their breakfast menu vowed to return and bring Megan. As a reminder, Stacked is located at 15388- 24th Ave in Surrey, BC. I won't waste your time with the usual intro to the establishment, let's get to the issue at hand, or mouth in this case.
Smoked Salmon and Eggs- Megan ordered the Smoked Salmon and eggs. Basically, a foccacia bread toasted with two scrambled eggs, home fries and topped off with a lightly smoked lox style salmon. Meg reports that the flavour was good and the eggs were cooked well. This also came with two slices of toast so the overall carb count was pretty high according to our intrepid test eater. At $10 the portion was reasonable and the quality good.
Spicy Sausage Hash- Home fries, peppers, onions, spicy sausage topped with scrambled eggs and a light and tasty hollandaise sauce. Came with sourdough toast and home made preserves. The eggs were well cooked, the potatoes tasty, and the sausage was a nice and flavourful slightly dry chorizo style sausage. It was a decent portion for the $11 price.
Coffee- Stacked serves Saltspring Island Coffee with a feature blend each day. The day we were there it was a dark roast that even with a sweetener and generous milk had me talking slightly faster than an auctioneer at a livestock auction.
The service on this day wasn't outstanding, but this isn't the type of place you go to eat quick and get out. Expect the slightly hippy-ish waitress to have a flashback or two and forget where she is, once she shakes off the haze of patchouli she'll remember that you are there and top off your coffee. Embrace the slower pace and friendly, laid back atmosphere and breakfast will be a good time.
