Sausage + Egg

After smashing through Berta’s sandwich menu a couple of months ago, I finally had a free morning to come back for their breakfast muffin. After some back-and-forth, I landed on the sausage and egg and couldn’t resist adding the hash brown on the side. I’ve been eyeing that hash for ages, but usually talk myself out of it because, you know… calories. Today I chose joy.

Now, onto the muffin. The egg was cooked perfectly. Jammy yolk, not too runny, no messy situation. The sourdough English muffin was great too! Nice chew with a slightly firmer outer shell. The beef sausage was herby and fairly lean. Paired with the melted Emmental, it all came together really nicely. Flavours were balanced and tasty without being over-the-top, and the special sauce was used with restraint — just enough, not drenched.

Very glad I ordered the hash brown on the side instead of stuffing it into the muffin. That sauce was unreal. Very animal-style energy. I dipped everything into it, including the muffin. The hash itself was soft inside, well-seasoned, with that salty, furikake-style topping doing the most. No wonder the hash brown stands strong on its own. Super yum.

Absolutely worth waking up for!
