(suspicions proved to be spot on)


Special report from roving reporter Blesséd. Going to great lengths to review breakfasts.
 
All day breakfast available at the Clinical Decision Unit unless you're deemed to be Nil By Mouth.

The first thing to comment on is the overwhelmingly clinical nature of the ambience. The constant bleeping of machines was a distraction but the comfort of the furniture and the attentive nature of the staff were well above the standard of other local breakfast venues.


After the order was taken the food was very prompt to arrive, so promptly my suspicions were raised about a probable microwave re-heat.
The lifting of the presentation plate cover revealed a sausage, one rasher of bacon, beans and sautéed potatoes. Tea or coffee were available on request. (I opted of Tea as I find it more thirst quenching of a morning.)

Pros: The food was prompt and warm and came with an anti-bacterial hand wash napkin. The beans were separated from the rest of the breakfast and there was an endless supply of hot drinks upon request.
No bill was presented at time of departure.

Cons: My suspicions proved to be spot on, the meal was microwave reheated. The bacon was half hidden by the omelet, (no other egg options available) as a result half of the bacon was soft and incredibly salty the other half as hard as very salty leather.
The ingredients as a whole were low value and as a result the breakfast was a little bland.

In conclusion:
Bland but filling.
Great value.
Incredible service.
Clinical slightly cold by very clean ambience.

I'm not sure I'd plan to dine there again.
