Partisan, York 04-2021

Since it was the time of only outdoor dining, Partisan already had people at their two outdoor tables when they just opened at 9am. As we had a train departing around 9.20am, they were actually very nice about accepting my order by phone before they opened at 8.30 just to have it in time while we walked there. Nonetheless it still took them until about 9.10am to get us the food, but it was only a few minutes to the train so no big hurry.

When they gave us the bag they did say we've put it in a 2 paper bags as sometimes 1 paper bag breaks. Unfortunately they didn't tell us just how liquidy the Eggs in Purgatory was and  we put it in our backpack in not a flat enough position, and so unfolding it on the train discovered the liquid has torn through the bags and all throughout the backpack. Spicy tomato isn't the best thing to stain your items. I even clogged the train sink trying to wash it all out...

- Partisan Breakfast (two fried eggs, M&K herb sausage, smoked bacon and black pudding, vine tomatoes, home fries, mushroom, homemade smoky beans, sourdough toast and butter) £13 - excellent mushrooms, crisp salty bacon, sausage was fine. Bread a bit thin on the cut;
- Eggs in Purgatory (baked eggs, spicy Nduja sausage infused tomato sauce, topped with fresh parmesan and basil, served with Haxby bread) £13 - actually a really nice simmered rich tomato sauce, although not spicy. Sauce was everywhere.
