| - Tried Kitchen 73 for the first time today as my wife and I have been desperately trying to find a decent brunch place in the West Island for a while now... and let me tell you, we finally found it! This place beats nearby competition like Allo Mon Coco, Petino's, Ben & Florentine, etc... first of all, the service was professional, courteous, fast and very friendly. I noticed the owner going from table to table asking patrons whether there's anything he can do to make their stay/meal better. That's almost unheard of in Montreal as most restaurant owners have become extremely pretentious lately. After we quickly got our coffee, we ordered our main meals (smoked salmon eggs benedict with St-Viateur bagels and Egg White Omelet with smoked salmon). The eggs for my benedict were cooked to perfection (not too runny, not too overcooked). The egg-white omelet was light, fluffy, and delicious. We especially loved the side of fresh fruits, which all tasted sweet (melons, strawberries, kiwi, pineapple). Other places usually just give you a slice of orange sitting on top of a lettuce leaf. Not here! The ambiance inside is also welcoming with a clean, modern/contemporary look. I hope this place lasts for a while and doesn't become as snooty as Allo Mon Coco just down the road.
