kara cheiko — Thu, 20 Apr 2017 20:10:24 +0000

It’s a great month to be a sports fan in Toronto. The Leafs and the Raptors are in the Playoffs and the Blue Jays are…playing. Silent wars are erupting around bars, as people harass the staff to put their favourite sport on. Google is being bombarded by player statistic search requests and everyone is walking around in some sort of fan gear. It makes us feel giddy that we’re a part of all the buzz. So, to show our support to all our teams, we’re offering 15% off to anyone who shows up in Leafs, Raptors of Jays gear on select game days. Check out our Facebook and Instagram pages for details.

But more importantly, our teams need our fans to support them, and our fans need all the energy they can get to keep up the buzz. That’s where we come in.

Power Breakfast

You may not be playing, but you still need your strength to yell at the TV when someone make a stupid play. For you dear fan, we have the Power Breakfast made with two XL eggs any style and bacon on the side.

Oh Canada

Whether it’s the Leafs, Raptors or the Jays that win, it’s a matter of pride for all of Canada, not just Toronto. So show your national pride by ordering an Eggs Benedict made with the ‘best’ peameal bacon.

Belgian Chocolate Monkey Waffle

When they win, you’re on cloud nine thousand, when they lose, you’re down in the dumps. We get it. No matter what you’re feeling, a fresh waffle sprinkled with icing sugar, bananas, and strawberries, covered in chocolate sauce will make your feel great!

Boom Burgers

All sports fans come with beers and burgers on the side. And we’d hate to break up a combo that works. All our BOOM burgers are made with 6oz steak and are so delicious that we couldn’t even pick just one for you to try. Whether you love cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, eggs or bacon in your burgers, we’ve got all kinds of toppings for you to try as you chow down and power up for the big game.

kara cheiko — Tue, 17 Jan 2017 15:30:06 +0000

The new year has begun and by now you’re probably well on your way into your new year’s resolutions. Maybe you’ve been strong and held steadfastly to your resolve. Maybe you’ve already fallen off the wagon a few times. Or maybe you’re on the verge of talking yourself out of the whole thing because…just because. We’ve taken it upon ourselves to be your resolution cheerleaders this year. Whether you’ve decided to lose weight, or get more sleep, or read more, or travel more, or follow your dreams, we think you should go for it. There’s no time like the present to find the best version of yourself.

And in the spirit of helping you become the best you, we want to help you eat better. Because you are what you eat.

So here’s what the healthier, fitter and better you should include in your diet.

Boom Garden Salad

5 Euro Cup Must Haves

kara cheiko — Fri, 24 Jun 2016 16:36:37 +0000

The Euro Cup has kicked off in style and whether you’re Italian, Icelandic, English, German or just straight up Canadian, you can’t deny that the soccer fever is catching! Everywhere you go, people are cheering and booing at the TV like their lives depends on whether their teams makes that winning goal. We are happy to say that we are no different. Our Italian blood is calling out to us, compelling us to show support and make wild gestures at the TV. In that spirit, we felt that we’d post 5 things you need to have at Boom Breakfast if you’ve got Euro Cup Fever.

BEER! Let’s just be clear about this, there is absolutely nothing in the world that brings soccer fans together better than beer. Whether you enjoy Mill St. Organic or the Mill St. Tankhouse Ale, you pretty much have to have a beer in your hand if you’re ever going to be considered a serious soccer fan. They also happen to be just $3 at Boom Breakfast throughout Euro Cup!

High Energy Omelette: It takes energy to keep up with the momentum in a fast-paced game like soccer, even if you’re just cheering. Thus, we give you our fresh omelette made with turkey chorizo, mushrooms, caramelised onions, and roasted red peppers. If that doesn’t get you pumped…well then you’re just being difficult.

The Banquet Burger: All sports come with a side of burgers, that’s just the way it is. So if you’re getting swept up by the action, what you need in front of you is a juicy sirloin steak burger topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and pickles. Take a big boy bite and remind yourself that win or lose the match, you’re still a winner when it comes to awesome meals.

Prosciutto Panino: In case you’re cheering for Italy, get into character with an all out Italian breakfast Panino made with Prosciutto, arugula, fior di latte cheese, tomato and olive oil. It’ll make game-time downright fantastico!

Chocolate Monkey: In every game there are winners and there are losers. Sometimes you might end up being on the losing side, but that’s okay because you can eat your sorrows and come out stronger…or at least happier. Have a go at our freshly baked waffle topped with fresh strawberries, bananas, chocolate sauce and powdered sugar. You can’t be upset after that, it’s just not humanly possible.

So do stop by at the restaurant where you can tell us all about your favourite teams, players and predictions for the Euro cup. Enjoy some great drinks, food and watch soccer at Boom Breakfast: the best breakfast place in Toronto to get into the spirit of the Euro Cup.

Around the World for Breakfast

kara cheiko — Mon, 02 May 2016 18:16:50 +0000

Like any food lover out there, we are travel junkies at heart. We like to try, taste, love and indulge in what different cuisines around the world have to offer, to create beautiful breakfast creations. We always hope with every bite you eat, you can close your eyes and be transported to another part of the world. So let’s take a look at all the places we like to send you, without ever needing a passport.

First, a little taste of home: Oh Canada

Oh Canada is an eggs benedict with two poached eggs, creamy hollandaise sauce, on peameal bacon, a fluffy English muffin and BOOM Frites. The Canadian spin on the regular eggs benedict comes with the addition of peameal bacon, which incidentally is native to our very own Toronto. We happen to think that peameal bacon is one of Canada’s most delicious achievements and we’re proud to serve it in any way we can.

Heading South: Broadway Bagel

We now head to New York’s Broadway street where bright lights, colour and glamour meet sophistication. Our Broadway Bagel is made with fresh Nanuk salmon, silky cream cheese, red onions and a drizzle of olive oil. It’s bright, colourful and sophisticated, just like its namesake.

Still in Manhattan: Manhattan Steak

Steak, we believe, is the food given to mankind by the god of awesomeness! It just so happens that New York got it right first; in fact, the restaurant to have made the best steak in America was traced back to Delmonico’s, which opened in 1927 and stayed open for nearly a century! Such joints carved out the legacy of New York steaks and we took a page from their books to create our Manhattan Steak, a 6 oz hunk of beautiful strip loin, grilled medium-well, with two eggs any style, BOOM frites, fresh fruit garnish and toast.

TexMex Fiesta: Huevos Rancheros Burrito

The traditional burrito made with meat, beans, rice, salsa sour cream and cheese wrapped in a tortilla originated in the United States by Mexican immigrants. We thought we’d bring the fiesta to the breakfast table with our Huevos Rancheros Burrito. With scrambled eggs, tomatoes, green onions, guacamole, salsa and BOOM frites on the side, you get all the flavours of Mexico, US and Canada, all rolled into one fantastico burrito.

Welcome to Tuscany: Tuscan Sun

Italy runs in our blood, especially with the Cappellano family leading the charge. So it’s no surprise that we’ve brought the incredible food-power of Italy to the breakfast table. Our Tuscan Sun is obviously one such dish. Prosciutto, a thinly sliced Italian ham, is the star of this dish, as it brings together the poached eggs, roasted tomatoes on rye bread and BOOM frites, creating a symphony of Italian flavours in your mouth.

Let’s go to Greece: Mediterranean Tuna Salad

The shores of Greece are calling your name. We put a breakfast twist to the traditional Greek Tuna Salad – by adding eggs into the mix! Our Mediterranean Tuna Salad is made with tuna in olive oil, a hard boiled egg, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onions and honey dijon vinaigrette dressing to give you that zing of delicious greek cuisine.

Canada, Mexico, Italy, Greece or the USA, we take you wherever your breakfast desires may lead. Order up one of our global inspirations to enjoy the best international breakfast food that Toronto has to offer!

Salads: The Ultimate Spring Food

kara cheiko — Wed, 20 Apr 2016 19:17:38 +0000

Spring has finally arrived and we’re all stoked! Spring is a time of new beginnings, healthy thinking and the end of hibernating in our homes. It’s the time of flowers, fruit, greens, marathons, BBQs and so much more. Typically, the health nut in us starts craving for more fresh food during this time of the year and we have just the right line-up for such a thing.

For instance, if you’re in the mood for something that reminds you of the soft sea breeze, warm sun and the sweet smell of spring, The Mediterranean Tuna Salad is all you need. Made with tuna in olive oil, a hard boiled egg, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onions and honey dijon vinaigrette dressing, this salad will take you to the shores of Greece and back in one bite.

Thinking of a hearty salad that will help you get back into shape as you shed off those winter pounds? Chick-a-BOOM is your best friend. Made with grilled chicken, bacon, feta cheese, hard boiled egg, lettuce, tomato, cucumber red onions, southwestern ranch dressing, this salad has just the right amounts of protein, fibre and vitamins to keep you fit and healthy.

A line-up of salads is never complete without at least one all-vegetarian offering. To that effect, we give you the BOOM Garden Salad, made with BOOM daily garnish, feta cheese, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onions and honey dijon vinaigrette dressing. If this doesn’t give you a spring in your step, nothing will.

Of course, there are those who can’t JUST have veggies in a salad, because it doesn’t seem like a whole meal without a generous portion of protein. For our carnivorous friends, we have the New York Steak Salad made with charbroiled medium well, caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onions and south western ranch dressing.

So if you’re ready to have a spring fling with our healthy, fresh and yummy salads, stop by at Boom Breakfast, the best breakfast restaurant in Toronto and Vaughan to enjoy your greens!

Say Cheese

kara cheiko — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 21:05:26 +0000

Cheese is really in this year. Not that it has ever been out, but with the upsurge in sales of cheese boards, cheese knives and gourmet cheeses, it’s really, REALLY in this year. It’s no surprise either. Unless they’re lactose intolerant, most people will enjoy any item placed on the table, as long as it has great tasting cheese all over it. We too are big fans of cheese, and truly believe that it uplifts any dish to new heights.

Our main supplies for our fine cheese delicacies come from Kraft Foods and Essence Fine Foods. We use all kinds of cheesy goodness to elevate our breakfast and brunch offerings including: monterey jack cheese, feta, fior di latte, aged cheddar and Swiss cheese.

Try some of our cheesy creations and tell us which type of cheese you love most at Boom.

1) Four Seasons Omelette

Dig into 3 types of cheese, all in one eggy bite. Made with fior di latte, monterey jack, cheddar and swiss cheeses with fresh arugula, this one’s sure to satisfy your cheese craving.

2) Cheese Meltdown Sandwich

There is no such thing as a cheese overload, and this sandwich proves it. Made with aged cheddar, swiss and monterey jack cheeses and fresh arugula, this sandwich will have you melt with delight.

3) Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Nuf said.

4) Clucky Cheese Sandwich

Kids can go either ways with eggs, but they never say no to cheese. That’s why it’s wise to combine the two, and then trick them into liking omelettes. Then again, if you’re just a big kid at heart, you can’t go wrong with an omelette made with one extra large egg, cheddar cheese, served with BOOM frites and fresh fruit garnish.

So the next time you order up at Boom Breakfast, the best breakfast place in Toronto to enjoy your cheese, you’ll know exactly what you want off the menu.

5 Breakfast Foods For Your Post-Workout Routine

kara cheiko — Tue, 08 Dec 2015 17:56:37 +0000

So, you’ve finally decided to bite the bullet and head to the gym to get in shape. Good for you. Now that you’ve made that crucial decision, you have to compliment your workout with the right kind of food to balance out the calories you burn with the calories you earn. The science and recovery of the workout process is as complex as reading War and Peace, however, it boils down to this: in order to optimize your results, you need a quick dose of protein and carbohydrates within 30 minutes of your workout, especially if you are trying to build muscle. At Boom Breakfast we pride ourselves in providing the best breakfast options for your workout, because we make sure that our meals are balanced, healthy and nutritious.

Here are some BOOM-tastic meals you should try right after your workout.

Breakfast Sandwiches

An egg sandwich like our Adam Spanglish is a perfect post-workout breakfast. There’s protein in both the yolk and the white of an egg, and this recipe uses a combination of the two to boost protein while keeping calories and fat under control. Eggs also contain zinc, which aids in metabolism and immunity, and vitamin B12, which supports cell production. Cheese and fresh veggies round out this meal to restore tired muscles and recharge your energy stores.

Omelette

As you now know, eggs are a great source of protein and help aid in muscle recovery and growth. Mix this up with an omelette and veggie combo for even better results, something like our Farmer Gianni. The roasted red peppers, spinach and onions in this omelette are packed with vitamins which will provide you with antioxidants, the best boost for your body, inside and out. Plus there’s a hit of swiss cheese to give it that extra yummy flavour profile.

Wraps

If you’re a lunchtime exerciser, this Tuna Del Mar Warp is for you. Tuna is low in calories, but high in protein and carbs. Hard boiled eggs are packed with protein, tomatoes have vitamin C and the avocado in the guacamole is a great source of fiber. All in all, you can’t go wrong with this one. It’s nutritious, delicious and will help boost your workout efforts.

Fruit and Yogurt

Want to keep your breakfast fresh, light and healthy after hitting the gym? Then you’ll love our Smart Fruit N’ Yogurt. The yogurt is a great source of protein and carbohydrates. It also contains bacterial cultures which a good for your digestive system. The fresh fruit provides you with vitamins and antioxidants, while the granola and honey account for protein, carbs and some healthy fat. Put it all together and you’ve got yourself a fresh, light and nutritious breakfast snack.

Chocolate Milk

Who would have thought that one of the best childhood drinks would become one of the best post-workout drinks of all times. It turns out that chocolate milk is even better for you than plain milk, water, or most sports drinks. It has double the carbohydrate and protein content, perfect for replenishing tired muscles. Its high water content replaces fluids lost as sweat, preventing dehydration. Plus it packs a nutritional bonus of calcium, and includes just a little sodium and sugar — additives that help recovering athletes retain water and regain energy. So next time you order chocolate milk off of our menu, we know that it’s not just because it delicious, you’re looking out for your tired muscles.
