| - Dr Generosity was one of the first brunch places I tried in the city - it might have actually had the honour of being the first, but heck if I can remember. There have been many since, but something about it leaves me with a soft spot for Dr. G. Maybe it's the fact that it's in my neighbourhood, maybe it's the daily specials... But it's got that something.
I've been a few times for brunch and once for dinner. For brunch, they have fantastic options, and there's daily specials. I love when restaurants have daily specials, it still seems novel after spending so many years in small cities and suburbs with nothing but chains as far as the eye could see (slight exaggeration). I've tried their Huevos Rancheros ($12), and though objectively they were really good, it was my first time trying the dish and I realized that it's just not my thing. On another visit I was blown away by their Eggs Florentine ($12). And you can convince yourself it's semi-healthy because it has spinach! Score!
For my one dinner there, I was a little surprised at the prices, they were a little higher than I was expecting though they certainly weren't outrageous. All thoughts of that disappeared when we were presented with two delicious pasta dishes. I had the Penne alla Vodka ($18) with smoked salmon and leeks in a rose sauce. Absolutely fantastic. And the good doctor lives up to his name - I had enough leftovers to take to work for lunch the next day! My DC ordered the Chicken Tetrazini Fettucine ($19) and announced that he wanted to bathe in the sauce.
All in all, great for brunch, lunch, AND dinner. Decent prices, fun atmosphere, good waitstaff. A solid choice that I'm sure I'll be back to.
