| - Took a gal pal there for her birthday brunch a couple weeks ago, and it was very interesting - they use coffee beans from a place in Vancouver that roasts them (name escapes me right now, I really shouldn't write reviews in the middle of the night). We had the charcuterie potpourri of animal innards (including HORSE!) in sausage sliced form which was delicious and interesting with the proper amount of pickled condiments and toasties. (On a side note, I'd like to know who their bakery is for those toasties - they were perfectly crisped and tender at the same time). We both ordered the eggs benny, even though I don't like a poached egg, (I had my egg scrambled) - it was divine. The little side arugula w/lemon vinaigrette salad that accompanied it was a perfect palate cleanser. And rather than order the dessert that did not excite me (it was a lemon meringue bar/tart type thing that day), we ordered another entree - the waffles with chocolate chips and bacon with caramelized bananas. H-E-L-L-O - heaven on earth. That was AMAZING. I've got photos somewhere on my iPhone and will upload them STAT. Portions are not large, but price point is good and thus, for 2 of us, we ordered 3 entrees and the charcuterie and by then, we had to be rolled out this tiny, quaint little cafe on Dundas.
