The County General

There was a whole lot of pressure on the restaurant that was going into the beloved Oddfellows space at Queen and Shaw.  Lucky for us, it's The County General.  From the owners of Splendido, this very wooden and cottagey room has everyone pretty pleased for brunch, lunch, dinner and late night eats. 

The photos posted here are from a recent brunch visit, where a group of us ordered almost the entire menu (minus the burger and a couple desserts).  What we did order was the English breakfast, the French omelet, the eggs benedict, the corned beef hash with pork belly, the croque madame and the fried chicken thigh sandwich with avocado chutney.  The last two dishes were our favourite, while the hash, served a little dry, would have been perfect with a poached egg on it.  The apple pie, served warm, worked as a nice light treat at the end of the meal.  Not on the brunch menu, the already famous pork buns, which means another visit is going to happen very soon.
