| - Went for a lovely brunch for a friends 40th. Really impressed with the refurb they did. We were seated on the porch with a view of the river and it was just lovely.
As we went on a Sunday they have free corkage, so we took 2 bottles of more expensive champagne to celebrate. The waitress was quick to make sure they were on ice and cold for when everyone arrived. Glasses were given to us straight away too.
As there were 6 of us we ordered and then passed plates around so everyone could get a taste. Had a couple duplicates of the below.
1. Soft Poached Mans Organic Eggs, with Smoked Red Lentil Hummus, Goat Feta, Sumac ($15). Great bread, hummus was a spread on the bread and the goats feta was delicious.
2. Sunny Side Duck Egg, with Toasted Sourdough, Grilled Merguez, Harissa Yogurt ($16). Ducks eggs are delious I discovered and you should too! Merguez sausage had amazing depth of flavour and the yogurt added the right balance to the richness of the duck eggs.
3. Duck Rillette eggs benedict, with buttermilk biscuit and mustard hollandaise ($16). Creamy slightly spiced hollandaise, duck rillette was more of a patty that they had grilled up under the eggs. Crisp but still soft and juicy. Great dish.
4. Driview Rabbit Perogies, with rabbit sausage, fermented carrots, buttermilk carrot puree ($18). This was a clear winner. The presentation was beautiful, and then you tasted the dish. Rabbit perogies are the only way forward as far as I am concerned. A most delightful treat.
We shared a dessert, cant remember which one, but know that it was gone in seconds.
Definitely a bunch on the higher end, but also higher end products and so well made with great presentation. This is the place you go to have a long leisurely brunch with people you enjoy spending time with. Find those people and go.
Reservations highly recommended.
