Waxed

A family Sunday breakfast was the order of the day. We tried Waxed in Sandy Bay and had a great time. Although we were unable to uncover the origins of the name, we were met with a smile and friendly service. Nice to see a happy face on a Sunday morning. We have come across some grumpy Sunday staff on occasion.

Waxed is open seven days a week and serve breakfast on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The menu includes a simple Eggs on Toast ($7), through to Eggs Benedict ($12.50), Eggs Florentine ($12.50) and Banana and Ricotta Hot Cakes ($13)

Hot Chocolate - delivered as requested: strong


My husband enjoyed the Big Breakfast. I don't remember the price but he commented he was happy to pay it when the meal was a good as this.

I had the half serve of the Eggs Royal; Mini Eggs Roy ($9), sour dough toast, smoked salmon, beautifully poached egg and Hollandaise sauce. Both the kids enjoyed their meals and chocolate milkshakes. One had poached eggs on toast; two eggs and two pieces of toasted sourdough, he reported this to be the best eggs he had ever had. The little bloke had a small serve of scrambled eggs. This wasn't on the menu but the staff were happy to oblige.

Coca Cola Apple Fritters with Hot Cinnamon Ganache and Vanilla Ice Cream
It's not like me to have such a small breakfast, but the opportunity of a half serve meant I could try the apple fritters. The coca-cola batter and cinnamon ganache, while not the sort of item you expect on a breakfast menu, were too intriguing to pass by. Although the cinnamon wasn't overly obvious these fritters were delicious.
A great breakfast enjoyed by all the family, great food, reasonables prices and friendly service with a smile. We plan to go back and try the dinner menu one night soon.

Now, that's what I call a 'big breakfast'. It looks delicious! And how about those apple fritters? What an unusual combination of flavours. Keep up the good work you guys! Mazza
