Petit Dejeuner

*see below post for info about the resto*

Came here for a quick lunch/brunch. There was a short line up at around 12pm. We waited maybe about 15 mins. Then around 12:20 there was no line up, and then another one when we left at 1:30pm. But they serve food really fast.

I have been here for lunch a few times (and each time ordered something from their all day breakfast) but brunch here offers a really good selection.

I am always drawn to the Eggs Benedict each time I go to brunch. I feel it's something I can't make at home, because of the hollandaise sauce. The Benny with Vodka Smoked salmon caught my eye ($14) but as you scroll down, they also have Waffles, with the Benny of your choice. The best of both worlds! ($12.95, but you only get one)

We both ordered the waffles with the benny.

The eggs benny was on top of a smoked salmon. The hollandaise was creamy and lemony. The egg was poached perfectly and liquidy when opened. I wish there was more than one.

The waffles were amazing, and I glad I tried it. They were light, crispy, and thin! So delicate.

It was a perfect ending, and complemented the apple salad side.
