| - I was pointed in the L'avenue direction from co-workers, friends and the Yelp community. I was a fan even before arriving in Montreal.
I got off at the Mont Royal metro and eagerly walked down Mont Royal looking for the L'avenue sign. Surprise, surprise there was a wait... I got there at about noon on a Saturday. With rain & hail, it wasn't pleasant.
Nonetheless, I waited it out because I've beent old that the wait was worth it. I ALMOST gave up at the 40 minute mark, and even went to the nearby Second Cup to refuel.
I'M SO GLAD I WAITED.
I ordered the Steak & Eggs benedict, and it was to DIE FOR. You get 2 perfectly poached egg, over Angus Beef steak and hollandaise sauce... with delicious potatoes. Best eggs benedict I've ever had.
So, end story, if you can go during an off-time (i.e. weekdays), then go to L'avenue for brunch. And if you can only go during a busy time (i.e. weekends), then STILL go to L'avenue for brunch. Best decision I made during my visit to Montreal.
