| - This terrace brunch is everything you want from a terrace brunch! Sipping on grapefruit cider mimosa, drinking coffee from little glasses (what's with Montreal and serving coffee in glasses?), and taking bites of delicious food that combine taste, texture and aroma.
I got the mushroom tart. The description said braised beef. I was expecting something like a quiche with a bowl of braised beef and somewhere a fried egg, perhaps. What I got was nothing like that! On top of a thick hummus-like bean paste that was drizzled with olive oil, sat a small disc of thin-layered pastry, filled with think later of mushroom, atop which sat two discs of super tender braised beef, and everything was topped with a fried egg. there were chunks of tomatoes sprinkled with a really tasty salt positioned under the pile, stuck into the bean paste or on the plate displayed to the world. Every bite, whether it's just one of the ingredients or a combination, was very flavorful. I took a long time to finish my meal and it was well worth it.
My brunch buddy got a plate of bean stew, topped with fennel, ricotta, potatoes, and 63-degree eggs. Doesn't sound like much, but it was really really good!
Definitely a good location to venture out to if you are in the city. Everything on the menu looked awesome! Try a few!
