| - I remember biking pass Butterblume in the summer and thought 'hey, that wasn't there before!' before wandering in and speaking with a lady, who informed me that they've actually just opened two weeks ago. Well, I've finally made the time to go back and it's quite the delight!
Good: I adore the mini boutique and make your own bouquet idea. They carry Montreal brands, so extra points for supporting local! Butterblume has a charming interior that looks like it came out of a Pinterest account, which is very fitting for the Mile End scene. I came here for brunch and I've ordered the beets salad. It tasted amazing and looked incredibly pretty. Their cookies are also amazing, soft chewy and really rich. My sister ordered the roasted butternut squash, thyme, poached egg, pancetta & pumpkin seeds on bread, which is another flavourful dish.
Bad: Too bad the portions were a bit small because I still felt hungry after eating. I was not a fan of the ravioli, maybe because it looked an oversize wonton.
Bottom line: Definitely try it at least once. Maybe order a dish and another to share because the portions aren't exactly generous, but the food was so darn good!
