| - Daniel, the owner reached out to me after reading my previous review. I was invited to come back and try their menu again with a gift card offer. It was enough to cover my meal and drink/dessert. Definitely a nice surprise and generous gesture on his end as my last review was already positive. Lol.
I came here on Saturday at 11:30am with a friend and as expected, it was a crush. This place is POPULAR. I repeat POPULAR. Lol. Wait time was 45min this time but if you leave your number they will send you a text. So you can always pop over to Dollarama or Starbucks across the street to kill some time.
I had the Eggs Benedict - Charlotte again. Still a great pick and definitely recommend. Yum yum. I probably should have gotten a different dish but hey, I love what I love! Salmon is my kryptonite! This dish is pretty filling and tasty. My only slight issue was the eggs were cold by the time it got to me. A bit sad about that but kinda understandable because place was packed. Meanwhile, my friend ordered the Mini Traditional from their Mini Brunch menu because they weren't too hungry. Said it was good and hot but just wish they could have their meal on a bigger plate. More plate room was needed for the spreading of butter on toast! Haha.
I wanted to also try something new, so for dessert...I got the Creme Brûlée. The custard was good, but the topping could use a little work. My friend and I shared this and we both thought the topping was way too hard. I had to really press down to get the topping to break. Usually, you can just crack it with a tap or two of your spoon. So if they fix this, this dessert would be A-OK!
Overall, still a solid brunch place. Just note they do not take reservations after 10am. Online reservations has different cut off times. Anyways, next time I am in the area...I want to try their Heaven on Earth dish (french toast w/ berries, cream cheese, honey and maple syrup). Yelp pics make it look oh so tempting! Happy brunching!
