| - Was a little hesitant to try this place, as it has absolutely zero curb appeal, and hadn't heard anything too exciting about it. Airdrie doesn't have a lot of breakfast places, so we thought we would check this new-ish one out.
It is way nicer inside than I was expecting, lots of tables and very clean. The menu is huge, with a bit of everything, about 5 different Benedicts, crepes, waffles, omelettes, and lots of combos.
I went with a combo plate that had a crepe with blueberries and cream, bacon,sausage, eggs and hash browns(?). Oh! And toast! It literally had everything, so you can get a huge meal without having to order anything on the side. I did leave a lot of it uneaten, but at least I got to try a bit of everything.
The hash browns are these deep fried potato discs. Not bad, but could only eat a few. The crepes are nice and thin, like crepes should be, not like the big fat dry ones at Cora's that are more like pancakes. The blueberries and cream inside was a delicious touch. Should have asked for my bacon crispy, it was a little wobbly for my liking, but each to their own. The fruit garnish on the side was a little sad looking, but everything else was really good.
Another nice thing about this place is they leave a carafe of coffee on your table, so you don't have to wait for the waitress to come around.
Overall, we were quite impressed with this place, and it will most likely be our go to brekkie place in Airdrie now. Sorry Cora's, your chubby crepes and jet fuel coffee have been replaced!
