I spotted this on my stroll up Yonge Street last Wednesday.

Nothing like a stiff shot of vodka to wash down your all-day breakfast!
Best wishes,

Maybe it loses in the translation, but who serves breakfast "all day" when it is defined as five hours between 11am and 4pm?

Re: Signs of the Times
My fav meal is breakfast; wether cereal, oats or a good english breakfast with bacon, eggs and toast!
I can eat breakfast any time of the day!!
Now I just got to work in when I can eat my pasta and pizzas, steak and chips and baked macaroni.

I suspect the All-Day-ness relates to those Torontonians who get up at half-ten, have a leisurely breakfast, and are in the pub by four pm. That is all day for them!

My wife's Mexican food stall at the local Sunday markets serves breakfast "all day" as well, but we have an excuse. The markets close at 4pm.

Yes, and it came back on me, too. We had a freeze last night. I think it might be the latest freeze in the year here on record.ChrisGreaves wrote:You had to jinx the weather, didn't you Bob!BobH wrote:Where did all the snow go?

Re: Signs of the Times
All Day Breakfasts! Ah! The Little Chef chain of UK roadside restaurants were renowned for their all day breakfasts - and the only timing criteria was that the restaurant needed to be open! Sadly, Little Chef's are becoming few and far between now having suffered badly from both the financial crisis and the intervention of Heston Blumenthal (spelling?). Most are empty derelict shells now, although a some still exist and serve a breakfast fry-up all day! - they used to do a pretty good 'beans on toast' as well!
Bring back the 50's/60's, when Mum and Dad, plus the kids, used to drive to their 'local' Little Chef for their Sunday dinner (and often queue for the privilege) - highlight of the week!!

The longer the term, the more you save!
I think my calculator needs a software upgrade, because it tells me that 5 x $91.70 is $458.50, thus I'm not getting a great discount IMHO...
