Why do we love breakfast so much? Maybe it’s because the first meal of the day is a fresh start, or possibly because breakfast is an invitation to have sweet and savoury items on the same plate together. Some of us enjoy a light meal of toast and coffee, while others love a plate full of delectable treats. Whatever your choice, there is something for everyone at Mississauga’s breakfast restaurants. Take our advice and start your day off right with one of our delicious Look Local Mississauga recommendations!
