So I have been living under a rock and have not heard of all this hype about Lady Marmalade. In my mind, I was just in a comfy restaurant catching up with a friend over Saturday brunch. Apparently there was a 40 minute wait for seats which I missed because I arrived late. Yes, I'm a terrible friend but that also means I experienced Lady Marmalade at its best... no lines!
I ordered the beet, carrot, apple and ginger juice to start. It was sweeter than I expected but the 'healthy goodness' of it felt like I just fed my stomach a vegetable patch. Following this wise choice, I went for the scrambled tofu which came with home fries and a salad. The proportion was big and everything tasted fresh and flavourful. I have never had scrambled tofu before so I don't have other comparisons. I did manage to sneak some of my friend's huevos rancheritos and it was delicious! Also, a shout out to the bread that was on my plate- it was very good bread. The service was very friendly and quick so that is worth a mention.
Overall, I enjoyed my experience but I don't know if I would now go home and build a shrine for the restaurant. You will leave happy if you go to Lady Marmalade to simply enjoy the food and the company of your loved ones- forget about expectations.
