Last Sunday I found myself in West End craving a bacon and egg roll. I know that German Dog House Sausages have a stall in the Boundary Street Markets that serves a decent bacon and egg roll. However, on this occasion I could not locate German Dog House Sausages, but was pleased to find that there was a stall, simply called "Fromage" that offered bacon and egg rolls. As the name would suggest, Fromage deal in cheeses, so them offering bacon and egg rolls is a slightly odd combination, but I'm not complaining at all. I ordered my bacon and egg roll and had to endure a lengthy wait. I'm not negatively commenting on the service at Fromage because many people had placed orders before me, and there was only one guy manning the stall. When my roll arrived I was not dissatisfied at all to discover that it was exactly the sort of bacon and egg roll one would expect to get from a small stall in a market. That's precisely what I wanted. There are only a couple of minor comments worth making. The bun was toasted. In my experience of eating bacon and egg rolls, this is rarely the case, but it neither added to nor detracted from my enjoyment of the roll. Second, the roll was of the variety that are dusted with flour. In terms of taste and texture, this is really neither here nor there, but it can create a little bit of mess when the flour mixes with barbecue sauce and oil. In conclusion, if you're in West End on a weekend and want a no frills bacon and egg roll, go to the Boundary Street Markets and find either Fromage or German Dog House Sausages.
