The Little Larder - Portico Building, 17/53-61 Macrossan Street.

If you are following this blog you can see we have been doing a lot of Sunday breakfasts lately.

For years The Little Larder has been considered the best breakfast place in Port Douglas.

It's roots go back to Soul & Pepper at Pier 319 years ago.

We got there on a Sunday morning at the advertised start time of 7:30am.

This was done to avoid the queues.

We ordered Eggs Bennie with bacon, The Original Onesie with extra bacon and coffees.

The coffees came first and were quite cool.

By 8 o'clock the place was filling up and the two chefs were getting their orders out but the wait staff weren't getting them to the patrons quickly. It was quite noticeable.

When we got our order the Original Onesie egg was cold.

Then I had a fight on my hands to eat the Eggs Bennie.

I know meals are put in stacks these days but I had trouble with the stack.

Firstly I dug the bottom Ciabatta slice out and put it alongside the one with everything else on it. I then tackled it. The knife was sharp but the crust was hard as was the bacon. The egg yolk and the Hollandaise sauce was going everywhere except on the Ciabatta which in turn was hard to cut.

It was quite a wrestle but it tasted great.

Eggs Bennie stack - $19

The Original Onesie - $12

We may return for lunch?
