| - Let me start by saying that I do not drink coffee.
If I were you, my next question would be, "why is this person reviewing a café?" and I wouldn't blame you!
Le Caravane Café is a really nice place located on Lacombe on the corner of Gatineau, right around the corner from Cote Des Neiges metro.
Though I don't drink coffee, I love any place that is open until 11 PM and serves food and excellent desserts. I don't know if the term exists, but this place is basically the quadrifecta for me: open late, check; serves dessert, check; vegetarian food options, check; serves milkshakes!!?? OK, where do I sign? Please take my money!
Add to that the fact that the staff is always friendly and welcoming, and i think they're starting to recognize me even though I've only been there a few times. This kind of personal touch goes a long way with me.
Now to the important bits, here are my recommendations for things not to be missed if you visit:
The salted caramel and white chocolate chunk cookie is a classic crowd pleaser here, and is well worth trying. The caramel saltiness is a perfect complement to the sweetness of the cookie and the white chocolate chunks. Your taste buds will thank you, trust me.
The White Chocolate Brownie Cake! The White Chocolate Brownie Cake!! The White Chocolate Brownie Cake!!! Oh My God!!!!! Words cannot describe the decadence of this cake. When I first saw it, I was drawn hypnotically to the words "brownie" and "white chocolate" but I ordered it with some trepidation because it looked like a cheesecake, and I don't like cheesecake. I could not have been more wrong - what appeared to be cheese filling was actually a white chocolate mousse, permeated with brownie bits! Topped with a mini brownie, and all of this on a base of brownie, I think I died and went to heaven, then I came back so I could do it all again!
Try a sandwich! So far I've tried the grilled vegetables and the tuna and avocado, and they were delicious! I can't wait to get there earlier enough someday to be able to get an Eggs Benedict, that'll be my next review.
Have a smoothie! There's a choice of around 8 different fruits, but don't be afraid to mix and match. My favourite is Banana, Mango, and Pineapple. I tried Banana, Mango, and Peach, but it was a little too sweet (a part of me just died for saying that, but it's true).
Check out the bathroom (not in a weird way!), they've converted a bathtub into a planter with a few different trees, I got a real kick out of that!
Le Caravane Café! I can't wait to go back!
See you there, maybe ;)
