| - This is one of those locations that I have walked past the last two years and never got around to trying. My main attraction to the storefront is the plastic food out front, which just looks so wonderfully Japanese to me. There is something about shiny plastic food replicas that really peaks my interest. Also, the amount of corn used on the food also made me think that it was a Japanese franchise. It is in fact not, but Canadian, and Montreal specific. The only other two location are at the Six Flags Theme Parks in the province.
This is a small cafe with only one worker that does everything, or at least at the times that I visited. You order at the counter and pay, and then they will call out your order for pick-up. Seating is limited to about three tables, with an excellent view of the street.
They are sold out of many items, like chicken salad and waffles. However, I ordered the Tuna Salad Crepe and it tasted much better than expected. The crepe was slightly sweet and crunchy, filled with tuna salad sandwich toppings; tomato, lettuce, corn, sliced processed cheese, and tuna salad. All of the items here are cheap, keeping most under $5.50 CAD.
Also, we ordered a Nutella covered plain crepe, it was perfect. These are not knife and fork style crepes, instead the hand held version. Most of the toppings are made in house. I watched the cook slicing the fresh strawberries before assembling them for the previous customer. Next time, I will get that chicken salad with curry topping.
