| - For those who walk along St-Denis regularly, multiculturalism takes a whole new meaning: there's everything, for everyone and for every wallet. Grain de Folie doesn't have much "folly" to brag about, but they do decent food at great prices.
Adventurous eaters and food snobs should stay well away because Grain de Folie is anything but adventurous. Food is conventional and made with a modicum of care.
I am usually the last person in a group to notice slow service, as my brain keeps me entertained enough. A couple of times, though, I noticed the slow service at Grain. Given, it was on very busy days (a full house is a rarity at this joint), so it's probably due to under-staffing.
Make no mistake - under-staffing denotes lack of ambition. I say Grain should get some pepper up their bum, some ambition into their spirit and some spice in their menu. Variety, experimenting, eccentricity - if you call yourself by a name that says "folly", live up to it and staff yourself accordingly.
