The White Horse
Poor KJ… her computer was suffering from terminal BSOD, or Blue Screen of Death. As you can see on the side here, it was some sort of pagefile problem. After 15 minutes of fiddling around trying to cure it, it began apparent that this wasn’t going to be a simple fix. So off we went for breakfast to mull over our options, KJ’s treat! Woot, this is the best kind of computer call… one that comes with a free breakfast!
KJ took me to the White Horse, not too far from the Ottawa VIA train station at 294 Tremblay Road. I was pretty impressed with the breakfast and they have great prices too!
I had the Rib Steak and 2 Eggs:
And KJ had the Two Eggs with Corn Beef Hash:
mmmmmMMmmm, yummy… Mine was $8.95 and KJ’s was $4.95. Very awesome.
Stay tuned, KJ’s computer is now fixed and I have to return it next weekend. Payment is another free breakfast!

Breakfast was indeed very good! As our Dr. Peabody has no doubt spent many hours slaying my Blue Screen of DEATH I will be only too happy to make a return trip to the White Horse this weekend. In fact I will buy Dr. P breakfast any place his little heart desires!
Dr. P, you are my Techie-Breakie HERO!!!

Hi,
Wow, that eggs with corn beef hash looks divine. Wonder where I can get something similar here… failing that, I’ll have to have a go at making it myself.

I love this place! Their standard breakfast special is also quite inexpensive, and the restaurant opens at 5am for all of you early birds out there reading…

Dr. P and I shared another very good breakfast today (Louie’s) which I am sure he will be featuring soon. More importantly he has restored “Honey”, my computer, to full health. The Blue screen of Death has been slayed! Mucho Mercies!!!
Anna, the hash was indeed great. You can also buy it in cans by Puritan, but it is hard to find. I also make it at home once in a while and it is easy to prepare. KJ

Well, based on the comments here I think we may have gone to separate restaurants (if you can call this dump a restaurant). I’ve frequented this dump twice (second time not by choice), and both times I left with harder arteries and a very high cholesterol count! A cheese omlette with cheese wiz was one breakfast, while the second was a so-called “breakfast steak” so thin I thought I was eating onion paper. So, would I ever try this dump again? NO! Would I recommend it to anyone? Only my worst enemy.
