Fronds Bistro on the Beach

Address:  14989 Marine Drive, White Rock, B.C.
Website:  None
Date Visited:  6 February 2011

We were looking for a place for breakfast along the White Rock beach area and noted that most restaurants were closed on a Sunday morning.  One place that was open was Fronds Bistro, so we decided to go in to try.  Not that we had a lot of choice!

Once inside, we found the place to be small but nice and clean.  However, the chairs need to be reupholstered as the seat portions were sagging.  We had to sit up straight in order to be high enough to enjoy our meal.

Meena, our server, was friendly and responsive, coming to greet us and to take our drink orders immediately upon arrival.  Thank goodness, as on this cold winter day, a cup of hot coffee was definitely needed!

Ordering breakfast, I wanted the crab cake eggs benedict but was told that they ran out of crab cakes.  I had to settle for the classic breakfast of eggs sunny side up, bacon, whole wheat toast and potato cubes.  The eggs were too well done for my liking.  Meena told us that they bake their own whole wheat bread, which tasted good.  Surprisingly, also tasty were the potato cubes.  Over all, breakfast was acceptable but the items selected do not require a lot of cooking skills.  I will have to return to try other items on the menu.
