Lgros Brunch At Lgros Luxe

Well, as some of you may know, I'm not really a fan of brunches. Mostly because egg, potatoes and bacon becomes kinda boring after a while, and I can make it at home. However, I enjoy eating at places which reinterpret brunches differently, at this place is one of them.
Berryjito? A drink that my SO ordered, Berry of the day, muddle with rum and mint. If this is your thing, its pretty good.
 What is the national alcoholic brevage of Canada? There is no definitive answer to this question, but I would argue that the Bloody Caesar is a good contender. Delicious, salty, tomatoey, a bit briny (from the seafood), with a good amount of spice. Delicious.
 Avocado Fries, a delicious, creamy concoction.
 Vegetarian burger+bacon. Really good, surprisingly enough, I was expecting a boring falafel-like patty, it was surprisingly nutty, crunchy, not full of grease, and delicious. Amazing burger.
Has browns with curried cauliflowers and eggs. Yup, delicious, reminiscent of Aloo Goobi, but crunchier. Fun dish, delicious and cheap too. This is actually a better price value and way tastier than the boring breakfast joint that is omnipresent in Quebec. 
This was an almost vegetarian meal, and it was delicious, would gladly return there.

Not a fan of the name tho, I guess we can't have everything in life.

Coffee Indie Passport: Soviet coffee and Russian doughnut at Chez Boris

Soviet Coffee:
Just like in other Communist country, milk and sugar was a rationed good, so people had to find substitute, condensed milk was usually what was used. The coffee here is a great, subtle coffee, with a hint of sweetness. Solid coffee.
Russian Doughnuts! Not as sweet as their american counterpart, they are freshly fried. They might be the best doughnuts in town. 
Iced tea, a cold, thirst quenching fruity tea.  
Would glady return for some tea and doughnuts ;)
