| - Trouble's a brewing at Cora's. The service is getting slower, the portions are getting smaller, and the flavour is getting... less flavourful.
Cora's was my go to place the next morning after a night on the town to eat a big delicious breakfast, but a recent visit with friends has been fairly disappointing.
The Rosemary Sunday comes with blueberry crepes. My wife ordered these, and they were pathetically small and thin. We are not picky at all, we never complain at restaurants, but for $10 she couldn't accept such a small portion. So instead of making bigger ones, she was given a third tiny one. I guess that's how they make them now.
I got the strawberry crepe, typically overflowing with delicious strawberries. This time I was given a more reserved portion lacking in flavour (though strawberries are admittedly out of season at the moment).
My friend got a Cora special. Nowhere near as full as how the pictures portray, or how they once were in the past. At least the potatoes are still delicious.
We still have hope for Cora's in Quebec, where they originated, and where we recently ate with the large, delicious portions we know and love. But given the constant lining up and waiting necessary to get in at this location, it didn't feel worth it this time.
Speaking of the line up, please treat it as such, fellow customers. Amazing how many people think they have a right to shove up to the front past the rest of us.
