I heard about Vendome's reputation as one of the best brunch spots in Calgary during their renovations. When they reopened I was eager to try them out. As of this review, I have had brunch at Vendome twice. Both times, the line to order wrapped around the bar to behind the front window seats. The wait isn't too long - about 10-15 minutes. Both times I went, I ordered their gravlax salmon eggs Benedict (it was that good!) and Mighty Leaf jasmine tea. The hollandaise sauce is rich and buttery, and the portion of salmon was generous. I also loved how they changed up the traditional English muffin with toasted panini bread. My only qualm is their macarons were not fresh when I had them. They were rock hard and could not be eaten without breaking one's teeth.
