I guess i just don't get what all the fuss is about.
For our last Toronto meal, we had our hearts set on Crepes-a-go-go, but sadly they didn't open until 10:30. Since we had to leave for the airport at 11, we were going to have to find our crepes elsewhere. We asked our hotel concierge to point us toward a good brunch spot and he recommended Cora.
First of all, it is my own personal problem that picture menus drive me crazy. I do not blame Cora for my own inability to read pictures. But the crazy fonts and all the colors and pictures... Wow. It's like instant ADD. I managed to order a Nutella and banana crepe while mom ordered something with French toast, eggs, and lots of fruit. Second of all, here's the thing about this "lots of fruit" schtick: it's all melon. I hate melon. Would it kill Cora to throw in some grapes, maybe even some berries?
Anyway, all the food we ordered was extremely unmemorable. Neither of our breakfasts justified the huge lineup of hungry diners outside when we left; the service was OK but the food was just so-so. Maybe it's just a Canadian thing that I just don't understand, but I'll find somewhere else for my crepe fix next time.
