| - I agree with the previous reviewer, Erin G. I can't believe Brasserie isn't busier at brunch time! Although I am reluctant to tell others about Brasserie because I appreciate being seated immediately, and not having to wait in a line outside!!
My bf and I had friends staying with us from Edmonton, and we wanted to go out for brunch on Sunday. We arrived around 11 am and there was only one other person in the restaurant! As we got to the end of our meal, the restaurant got busier, but still not even close to 50% full.
Between the four of us, we ordered two different kinds of eggs bennies, french toast, and cobb salad. The potatoes on the side of the bennies were my absolute favourite kind, sliced in circles and baked or fried, like beefy potato chips! I ordered the cobb salad, which looked and tasted great. I wish I took a photo to show how pretty the salad was! The salad had mixed greens, egg, avocado, bacon and crab cakes. I think cobb salads traditionally have ham? The substitution for bacon was an excellent decision.
The restaurant interior has a contemporary style, and they take advantage of the great view onto Kensington Road with huge windows on the north side of the room.
I will definitely return to Brasserie for brunch, and intend to try out the dinner menu too!
