| - I had one of the BEST brunch experiences of my life here awhile back. We were wandering the Dundas-Ossington hood slightly hungover, trying to figure out where to plant ourselves for brunch this time. This was a longggg while back, before The Federal and The Guild had opened, when Dundas Street was horribly underserved in the brunch department.
We stumbled into the Dakota and came upon... BLUEGRASS BRUNCH. It. Was. Awesome.
We walked in, and it felt like I was on a farm and my fictional farm mother had just rung the farm brunch bell. We were seated at our picnic table and they promptly brought out large plates with piles of eggs, hashbrowns, pancakes, sausages. You know, all that good brunch stuff. Whenever we ran out, they brought over another piping hot plate of what we'd run out of. Plus, there was a live bluegrass show (hence the name, "Bluegrass Brunch").
The food wasn't good, but I had such a GREAT time. It's not a place to take your foodie friends, but it's a place to take your fun friends. If those two groups overlap, then hopefully they can forgive the less than stellar food for the super awesome atmosphere.
