| - It's no secret that to get good brunch in this city you are going to be waiting. I was meeting a friend here and got in early, so I had to wait for her anyway and got a table after about 20 minutes or so. I then had about another 15 minute or so wait for my friend, and the staff were nice enough to let me hang and drink coffee while I did. Very cool decor, loads of kitschy stuff to look at making for a chill and cozy atmosphere. Menu isn't very big and yet I still struggled with what to get - everything sounded oh-so-good. I opted for the Great Canadian Cheddar with tomato which came on challah bread and chose greens on the side, and you can't forget the house-made ketchup! It sounds odd, but this sandwich reminded me not to forget about how insanely delicious cheddar is. I hadn't had straight up cheddar cheese this good in a long, long time and it was oozing out of this perfect challah masterpiece. The house-made ketchup is so tasty my friend asked for her own dish of it since she was using so much of mine. I asked for a side of fruit as well, which I was told was poached pears - I wasn't happy to hear this (not a huge pear fan) but got it anyway. Turns out, poached pears are nothing like eating a raw pear and it was really good - the pears were soft, juicy and sweet making for a perfect end to the meal. Dying to go back and try more, service was quick and accomodating as well. Be warned, they're cash only!
