During the renovations, we didn’t eat well at all. We frequented A&W (it’s one of the only fast food places here), which is a very sad thing. No one should frequent A&W. Mostly we would grab a bacon and n’ egger (on a wheat bun, with tomato) in the morning. One morning, shortly after we had moved in, I was rushing around to get ready and grumbling about how I wasn’t going to have time for breakfast and I was craving a bacon n’ egger.
Ryan surprised me with a delicious toasted sandwich with a fried egg and tomato. It was so good.
Since then, we have perfected the breakfast sandwich. In our minds, anyway.
We buy kalamata olive bread. At first we could only get it at Safeway but the other stores must have missed our business because they soon started to offer olive breads too. When toasted, it has the best crunch to it. We spread a smidge of mayo (real mayo – don’t give me any of that “salad dressing”) and then layer on a fried egg, two slices of calabrese salami (good and spicy) and a couple thin slices of tomato. And a little salt and pepper.
Best. Breakfast. Ever.
We had it this morning for the first time in a while (thus the passionate description). I decided that I would make a second one and take a picture to post here.
But, um, a dog took it.

i can attest to how awesome these sandwiches are. it’s not just that i am bragging to have been privileged enough to receive one, but rather that i feel the a&w gut pain.
recently i was hired to do several hours of work for all of the a&w’s in southern alberta. needless to say i have had a few to many teen burgers and bacon n eggers for my liking in the recent past. all the reason to come visit you both and have another wonderful breakfast sandwich…assuming you’ll still have me
That sandwich sounds so awesome that I’m starting to drool a little.
