| - When you hear people talking about how awesome St. Henri is becoming, it has to do with the emergence of spots like this.
A quaint little cafe down the road on St. Antoine, Cafe Baci's is as charming as its owners. And although the restaurant might be small, the food it serves up packs HUGE flavour.
Apart from their standard brunch list, (eggs, open faced omelettes, pancakes?, meat, meat, meat...) it seems like they also have an evolving and ever changing list of specials. I went while these were World Cup inspired, and despite their tragic loss, went with the Brazil: scrambled eggs with chorizo salami, some awesome bun type toast, pomme soufflé (bonus points for this - they aren't easy to make), fruit salad, and yogurt topped with dulce de leche. For lack of better words: GOOOOOOOOOOL! And as if the food wasn't good enough, imagine my surprise when I got the bill and saw how reasonably priced everything was. Brunch like this anywhere else would have easily cost $20 or more. Oh, and where was this meal enjoyed? In the serenity of their backyard terrace, complete with a picturesque waterfall/fountain. Honestly, brunch doesn't get much better than this.
P.S. You get a free cookie when you check-in!
