Had such a lovely breakfast here with my girlfriend!
She had been craving pancakes all week and I'll kill for a good Benedict just about anytime - enter Yelp. Eggspectation seems like a good choice so off we go on the subway to get into this downtown location.
She had pancakes (which were fluffy and delicious) and served with real maple syrup. She enjoyed them very much. The fruit on the side wasn't ripe.. made a bit of a face when she bit into it. Downer.
I had the Montreal benny with smoked meat and Dijon mustard. I had no idea Dijon would be such a wonderful addition to a Benedict but it really added a layer of complexity I'd like to continue seeing in future. That little bit of acidity went a long way. I'd highly recommend trying this out. Worth noting that my fruit, too, was unripe. Hardly edible.
Service was smooth, if a bit on the slow end. Had to call out to grab the check. No major complaints here.
Try the Montreal benny!
