| - This visit was actually my second attempt here. The first time, we made the mistake of coming here right at noon with a group of 6 people. Of course, we were in for a long wait, so we ended up elsewhere.
On this visit, we came at 11am, with a group of four and were seated immediately in the back. We were seated in a cozy corner on couches, where we ate off of a coffee table.
For my meal, I ordered the Eggs Isabelle - Two poached eggs with house made hollandaise, fresh tomatoes and avocado spread, served with homefries and baby greens ($10). I typically go for an eggs benny when going out for brunch and this visit was no different. Unfortunately, I regretted this order after taking my first bite. The hollandaise was extremely bland so the whole dish was lacking flavour. I wouldn't recommend this dish. However, the homefries were amazing! Hands-down, some of the best homefries I've ever had. It was smothered in a special saue, without them being soggy. Delish!
My boyfriend went with The Traditional - 2 eggs any style, peameal bacon or sausage, served with homefries, baby greens and toast ($10). It came with two pieces of thick toast and the entire dish was nothing special. It was just a standard breakfast. But again, the homefries were to die for!
My friend ordered the Heaven on Earth - Wild berries, cream cheese and honey sandwiched between lightly tanned french toast, dusted with powdered sugar, served with a side of pure Canadian maple syrup ($10.50). I had a couple bites of this and I really enjoyed it.
We also ordered the Chocolate Banana Pancakes - Fluffy pancakes with chocolate chunks and bananas served with a side of pure canadian maple syrup ($10) to share. Since our server asked us if we wanted the pancakes for dessert, we expected them to come after our meals. However, after waiting a long time for our food, we realized they were probably waiting for the pancakes. Sure enough, everything we had ordered came at once. We dove into the pancakes immediately since we wanted to try them while they were still hot. These pancakes were definitely not the light, fluffy kind. They were dense and tasted more like a cake. Overall the pancake was just decent for me. I think I would've preferred the apple cinnamon.
Overall, I was a little disappointed. I loved the homefries, but for the most part, I wasn't too impressed with the dishes, although I do feel they do their sweet dishes better than their savoury dishes.
If only all brunch restaurants did their homefries this well...
