Last Sunday I was in the mood for a bacon and egg roll. Unfortunately, these are not as prevalent as they used to be. I went to a place in West End that I thought I could get one from, but they were closed. So I went to the Boundary Street Markets in the hopes that I could get something there. One place was selling bacon and egg wraps, which I am skeptical about. Another place was selling bacon and egg crepes, which I'm even more skeptical about. Eventually, I came across a German Dog House Sausages stall that was serving bacon and egg rolls. The sausages looked quite good, but they were foot longs and I was not craving that much food. I ordered my bacon and egg roll and the guy cooked it up on the spot. There is really not that much that can be said for this bacon and egg roll. It was completely standard: fried bacon and eggs on a bread roll. The only thing that is really worth commenting on was the sauce. I like barbecue sauce on my bacon and egg rolls, which they provided. The only problem was that instead of a standard sauce bottle, or even individual sachets, the sauce came in one of those massive bulk buy sauce bottles you sometimes encounter. These types of bottles are so large that you have to use a hand pump to get the sauce out. These pumps are problematic because it is more difficult to control the amount of sauce that comes out in a single pump, compared to other sauce bottles. This meant that my roll was unevenly and sparsely seasoned, but this was preferable to having the roll completely lathered in sauce. However, this was not a major issue as bacon and eggs are tasty enough to stand on there own and sauce is not always necessarily required. So, was this the best lunch ever? No. Was it even the best bacon and egg roll ever? The answer is still no. However, I got almost exactly what I wanted. Anyone who has ever seen Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle should appreciate that feeling.
