The Good
We thoroughly enjoyed the Full Angus and Bon Breakfast. Mirroring the traditional Full English Breakfast, the giant plate had it all. Two perfectly poached eggs were accompanied by delicious pork sausage, thick cut bacon, sautéed mushrooms, potato hash, ham hock beans, roasted tomatoes, and of course black pudding. Our favourite was definitely the ham hock beans, with a rich, appetising tomato base and such tender pulled ham hock mixed within the baked beans. The sausage was also full of flavour, and exceptionally juicy, which was contrasted by the lean, lightly smoked bacon.
The Mixed Mushrooms Omelette was also enjoyable though definitely less spectacular than the full breakfast. Simply presented, a generous helping of juicy sautéed mushrooms hid away within the light, silky omelette. The flavours were simple though enjoyable, well paired with a slice of toasted sourdough. Though a tad of chilli or some goats cheese would’ve really brought this dish to the next level.
The Mediocre
Nothing.
The Bad
Nothing.
The Verdict
Angus and Bon artfully brings old school glamour to the modern Prahran. The immaculate attention to detail and emphasis on quality is evident from start to finish, and while their breakfast menu isn’t overly creative, it’s bound to transport you to what a Sunday breakfast in England would’ve been like, half a century ago.
