| - Creperie Triskell was not open yet and we were famished from walking around the city all morning and needed some brunch quick. We happened upon this location directly next door to Triskell and were pleasantly surprised. I adore Square Saint Louis, and this eatery provided us with a view of the square and excellent food.
Everything here is fresh, including the waiter, and the juice. Seriously, everything I tasted at Bulle au Carre made me eyes roll back in my head. The buckwheat crepes were the best I have yet to taste; ultra thin, light, and crispy. I highly recommend the Goat Cheese and Tomato buckwheat crepe, which is served with a perfectly dressed salad. I wish that all Montreal creperies were created equal, but this one surpasses many.
There are also some sampler type dishes that are around $12 CAD and all inclusive, with fresh fruit with a drink (complete menu on their website). The Brunch Francais included a delicious baguette with house made fresh fruit jam, buttery crisp croissant, fresh fruit, fresh melon/berry fruit juice, and choice of hot tea or coffee. The breads here are crave-worthy, perfectly salted with excellent texture. The Brittany Brunch was similar, served with a lightly crisp egg, cheese, and ham buckwheat crepe. However, the item that stands out in my mind most is the Brittany Fig Pudding. Which is a dense lightly sweetened, creamy custard with a few plump figs at the bottom.
Every item here I tried was just heavenly!
