This is where it all began for my hubby 14 years ago? (And at a fine dining resto)....started off as a dishwasher while attending cooking school, worked his way up to be offered his own kitchen to run but turned it down and to go back to school.
*a long time ago*
In an effort to impress, while I was waiting for his shift to end, the cook (my boyfriend) served me "Montreal Smoked Meat." This homesick twenty something stared at the fried meat and just about cried. Since then, the menu is a little more accurate. Just a warning though, MTL smoked meat is not fried!
*Current*
We ate dinner here weekly (years after he left for school and new owners took over). The food was consistently really good. I especially liked the veggie burger.
*tips*
- Try a weekday for breakfast/brunch/lunch unless you are ok to wait (expect line-ups).
- If you are noise-sensitive, avoid weekend brunch or bring ear plugs!
- Super cute place for a weekday breakfast/lunch/dinner or dessert date!
