| - Brunch in Montreal is a whole new ball park. I typically stay away from Brunch spots in Toronto, simply because I believe they charge ridiculous prices for items you could probably make just as good at home. BUT, in Montreal you have to eat brunch. These restaurants are packed on the weekends, as expected given the quality of the food they serve.
Whenever I get the chance to go to Petinos I always order one of the montegeries. This is simply a breakfast plate that comes with 2 eggs, 2 pieces of toast, a load of house potatoes, your choice of protein, baked beans & your choice of half a waffle. ALL OF THIS FOR AROUND $15.00!! I've heard everything else on the menu is good, which I whole heartedly believe but I can't let go of this dish.
Now the house potatoes come in abundance of not only portions but flavour. Wow, I don't know how they can get them so crisp & flavourful. The baked beans are amazing. The eggs you choose how you want them & go well with the wonderful, buttery, soft pieces of toast they give you. There are also a variety of spreads for the toast, from caramel to jams to maple syrup. And just when you think you've had too many carbs, take a bite of your protein.
Now I think the winner of the dish, is the waffles. Not only do you get a filling meal but you get to top it off with a Belgian waffle. They are so fluffy & good, it is crazy. The English cream isn't too sweet & so smooth. So so so good.
The price is amazing, the food is amazing & the wait is worth it.
