Country Style from Cayuga Menu

"We drove to Selkirk to walk the Wheeler's Trail in the provincial park. But with all the recent rains, the trail was too muddy. So we walked along Lakeshore to get in our morning steps. Then back to Selkirk for breakfast, we read a review last year about it and always enjoy breakfast out. Good server, good coffee, good home cooked food. My husband always orders his eggs over medium, and the yolks always come out too runny or too hard. Not this time they were just right! Really good bacon too, with a smoky aftertaste. The review also mentioned that they had great carrot cake, so we ordered two pieces to take home. Carrot cake is our favourite dessert, we order it whenever we see it on menus, so feel we can judge the offerings pretty well. I don't know what the reviewer was eating, but this was truly the worst carrot cake we have ever had. The texture was weird, very granular, almost as if made with cornmeal. It wasn't listed as gluten free, which can have a weird mouth feel. Also missing were the lovely combo of spices that you usually find in carrot cake. It was very dry. However, the cream cheese frosting was excellent. SO if we lived closer to Selkirk, this would definitely be on our list of regular breakfast spots. The carrot cake not so much!"
