Changing Times

Brunch Tower for 2



 

Korean seafood soba bowl

Pancake Cheese Burger

Community Burger

We went to Next Door restaurant with some old friends a few weeks ago.  It was a lovely restaurant and here are our food photos.  The brunch tower is a favourite.  The cold soba noodle bowl had lots of seafood but to me it was just okay, perhaps some of the flavouring could be improved.  The good part is that son K ordered a pancake burger as we didn't realize it was literally a pancake burger.  He asked if they could substitute real buns and the waitress just brought him their real burger platter.  There was no extra charge for the substitution.

We were the oldest people in the restaurant aside from son K and one other table (changing times).  Our conversation: implants, crowns, root canals, cataract surgery and travel (oh well).   It was good to get together with old friends.

  6. It does look to have some very intriguing things on the menu. I am not a seafood lover, so I probably not like what you ordered. Thanks for the wonderful post!

  7. That is funny about the pancake burger. And interesting to know that you all were the oldest people there. It seems here most of the younger crowd either does take away or has doordash pick it up here. Thanks so much for the photos.

  12. The Brunch Tower looks impressive, and it's nice they were so accommodating with the Pancake Cheese Burger substitution. It's true, dining out often highlights changing demographics, but good company makes any setting enjoyable.

  15. Even if people never actually looked at us, they could tell our ages by the gist of our conversations, can't they? Oh, and that food looks wonderful! Blessings, Christine!

  21. Conversations when we get older make me smile when remembering my parents who talked about such things and I rolled my eyes. I have apologized to their memory a few times now 'I'm there!'. All the food sounds good.
