| - Location/Service
Another recommended restaurant in Montreal. The restaurant is located on a corner lot - the name/sign is at the bottom, so you gotta look carefully. Parking is available on the street and around.
Inside decor is very plain and simple, but gives off a very nice groove and ambiance - especially for lunch.
Service is also nice, staff were friendly and quick with our orders.
Food
Came here for brunch, so ordered a few items to share.
Appetizer - donuts! Chocolate, custard and lemon. Outside is fried and inside is soft filled with each individual flavor. I really liked the custard, lemon is sour as expected and chocolate is chocolate. This was a nice starter to open the palette.
Mains - English breakfast - featuring a sausage, sunny side egg, beans, bacon and toast. Can't go wrong with this dish. Everything was done to the right level, very comforting - and I like the toast and potatoes on the side.
Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs - eggs were nicely done, very fluffy, a little bit creamy to taste. Salmon was also great, complimenting well with the egg - and combining it together with a toast gives a really healthy and light meal to it.
Buckwheat pancake - with cretons, fried eggs and apples. Apples were caramelized, giving off a very sweet savory flavor, substituting it well with butter/maple syrup. The pancake is different from the usual ones, not fluffy and soft cause of the buckwheat, but it's very light to taste and it mixed very well with the cretons, which was like a pork spread with onions and spices.
Overall it was very nice place to come here for lunch, price wise is a little high for me - since the menu items does not seem too overly astonishing for me. But really liked the vibe and the environment.
