Victoria Trip - The Village Restaurant

We used to live in the Estevan Village area on Hamiota so on our return trip home for Xmas we drove through our old neighbourhood and noted the addition of The Village. It looked good but we already had many restaurants on our list to visit. Then friends of ours invited us to join them there a couple days before our departure. This is their usual Wednesday breakfast place. Boy, was I ever glad they took us there but now wish we would have gone way sooner as I want to go again! We went for the Eggs Benedict and are they ever spectacular! Served on potato latkes - amazing! I had the Italian Benny which is served with Portobello mushrooms on the potato latkes with a delicious pesto and topped with a great hollandaise sauce and green onions. The flavours were amazing! My husband had the Back Bacon Benny and it looked absolutely delicious. I want to return to try this one! The place was packed the entire time we were there. Even all of the outdoor seating was full - on December 31st - people were eating outdoors! And it seemed like many people knew each other and this was a usual gathering place. It was great! I wish the Village would have been in the neighbourhood when we lived here. We will definitely return on future visits.
