Another early morning train journey; another plate of breakfast in a wee Dundee cafe. On previous visits to these parts I’d breakfasted at the likes of the Folk Cafe and Fisher & Donaldson. I was in a similar neck of the woods, but today stopped at Soo Delicious on Union Street.

Although the place initially looked like a fairly standard greasy spoon, upon further inspection it had some nice detailing giving it a homely feel. This was matched by the warmth of welcome from the wonderfully friendly counter woman, who was a joy throughout.

Upon finding a full breakfast on the menu, my decision was made for me. I chose tea, included within the overall price, because as yet Dundee hasn’t provided me with much coffee luck.

The things were soon with me along with a slice of extremely good buttered granary toast, which proved satisfying eating.

Highlights were a very good slice of black pudding, two suitably meaty sausages and profuse thick-cut bacon. In fact, there was barely a weak item across the whole plate. This pleased me very much.

So overall, Soo Delicious lived up to its name in no small measure. If you’re looking for a heartily tasty breakfast in this part of town I’d be pleased to point you in its direction. I look forward to visiting again.
