Food Battle 1 - Bagels

The Great Canadian Bagel v/s Treats Coffee Emporium

Another morning just started, as one wakes up for breakfast with only a few places open at that time of the day. But one is in a hurry for early morning classes, one could go to another place and order a traditional breakfast known as The Big Breakfast."

This "big breakfast" meal consists of 2 slices of toasted bread with or without butter, 2 sausages or bacon strips, 2 eggs to the person's style and 2 hash-browns. Despite being highly appealing, it takes quite some time for the order to be processed and to be ready. Therefore it is not what one will be looking forward on a hasty morning. What one needs is breakfast on the go. It needs to be ready very quickly while being cheap and fulfilling. One possibility are the bagels from either The Great Canadian Bagel or Treats Coffee Emporium.

The Great Canadian Bagel

Those bagels are not as cheap as I expected

And as I pay I always feel cheated 

They do things very fast almost like an assembly line

Perfect when I am in a hurry or on deadline

One can pick from a wide array of topping

Enough for some top notch advertising

Same goes for bagel choices; anything you need

Whole-grain, plain, herb, cheese, poppy, sesame seed 

A decent place for breakfast in the morning

But eating bagels all day will be surely frightening 

Treats Coffee Emporium

Bagels for breakfast at Treats are the cheapest

As I wonder whether this bagel place is the best

As expected, they process orders at a very fast pace
Maybe something they learnt from another place
However the choice of bagels are restricted

Which at times have left me dejected

It feels like a greenhouse with to lots of windows

Sitting, eating while watching other hasty fellows

However it does fail and with a big crash

 I can only pay using meal plan card and cash

Breakfast on campus is definitely one unique experience. I ate at those bagel places but somehow I would still prefer "The Big Breakfast" which unfortunately is not served at these two places. But regarding to bagels alone, the difference in prices vary between about $1 or $2 but when you compare the wide array of choices that The Great Canadian Bagel offers, it is no wonder. Both of them offer coffee for around $1.50 extra which I always pass. "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day" my parents always tell me, it is true but as long as I can get myself some cereals and milk, I can say goodbye to bagels.
