| - Went to the Queensway Bier Markt for brunch/lunch last weekend to celebrate friend's birthday. We love to eat so the 3 of us gals ordered 5 meals to share.
We ordered from both the brunch and lunch menu.
To start we ordered the Bread and Butter grilled brioche bread, Gruyere cheese and black pepper popovers, compotes du jour for 6 dollars (on the brunch menu). I really enjoyed the compotes (berry was the best, then they also had a kiwi and peach/tangerine that were both yummy on the popovers. The brioche bread was just ok. Not bad but nothing spectacular... But I am a bit of a bread snob...
2nd item to start was the fondue found on the lunch menu for 21 dollars. Cheese and Lager fondue - Appenzeller, Emmental and Raclette cheeses, stella artois lager, granny smith apple, rosti croquettes, bistro bread (similar to a baguette). This dish was fun and tasty but very rich! Probably better with more people as we had to leave a lot of it. The rosti croquettes were awesome and the apples went well with the fondue. I also enjoyed putting some of the compotes from the previous dish on the baguette with cheese.
We then ordered 3 mains to share:
B and B breakfast sandwich for 16 dollars which is fried egg, alberta boar burger, maple glazed bacon, sherry onion jam, toasted classic bun, baby arugula salad, olive oil vinaigrette. This was one of the faves. The egg yolk was perfect (soft) and the maple glazed bacon was perfectly sweet.
Breakfast Greens for 14 dollars - 2 poached eggs, smoked bacon, sauteed mushrooms, butter lettuce, kale and baby arugula, grilled bistro bread was disappointing but could have been because we ate it last and it was cold by then. My friend had ordered it in the summer and said they were much better (better mushrooms and bread).
The 3rd main was the smoked meat flatbread pizza (14 dollars). House smoked beef brisket, sweet and smoky mustard, shaved cider slaw, emmental cheese, roasted garlic. I would rate this a 3. I enjoyed the brisket but felt the slaw was very dry. Still enjoyable but had higher expectations.
All in all a great experience, great service, yummy food and 100 dollars for all 5 dishes once you add tax and 20 percent tip. If you go for brunch, try the breakfast sandwich and if you have a decent size group, the fondue is fun. For 6 bucks the popovers and compote was yummy but beware there are only 2 popovers (and 4 slices of toast). Please note that I took pictures of all the meals listed above for your viewing pleasure!
Enjoy!
