| - If you're going to do brunch, this is the way to do it.
Parts and Labour manages to be completely satisfying and completely surprising at the same time. A difficult balance when it comes to breakfast foods! The space doesn't have your typical sunny, brunch-y decor (looking at you, Cora's), instead it's stylish! Go figure, I'm told they also rock a pretty good dinner menu as well.
I had the steak and eggs, scrambled instead of poached. My request was not looked down upon and just made the meal that much more enjoyable to me. It was a perfectly cooked and seasoned, medium rare steak on a bed of gorgeous French fires. The best? Dipping the fries in the shallot jus that slightly pooled at the bottom of the plate. Crispy shallots on top made a few bites soar a couple extra notches.
A sweet part of this whole deal was the service. Nothing was too fast or too slow. Everyone just seemed genuinely excited for us to be there. When our server asked how everything was, he said it in a way that actually meant/sounded like "How is it? Effing amazing, eh? Yeah, I know, right?! Good decision, guys"
It's the kind of meal and experience I would gladly wake up early-ish for again, to trek to Queen West and beat those Sunday rushes.
