What a great view from this beautiful restaurant! I came here for brunch with a friend on a Saturday morning and it wasn't very busy at all. This surprised me as the service, food and view were excellent! And finding a good brunch place that isn't busy in this city is almost an anomaly. Our server did express that orders can take longer as everything is made from scratch. That's right folks! - Casual fine dining made in house, fresh and from scratch. As it wasn't super busy, we didn't find the wait very long at all.
We ordered some french press coffee that hit the spot and my friend had the Eggs Benedict with salmon and I had the Croque Madame. My friend said that the Eggs Benedict was absolutely delicious. The brown butter hollandaise sauce was to die for. This sauce is the real deal folks! Not made from a packet.
The Croque Madame was huge! and the chevre noir mornay sauce that covered the egg and cured ham on the french toast was absolutely delectable! The ham was shaved thinly and the over easy egg was perfect. The roasted potatoes were equally yummy. I still salivate thinking about it...
The view was so lovely looking out on the Bow River - definitely added to the tranquil ambiance of the restaurant. Guys and gals - this would be a very romantic dinner date and you can go for a walk in the park after.
I would definitely come back here again for brunch or dinner for that matter. Overall a big thumbs up. Thanks for the wonderful experience!
