Rated as one of the top brunch spots in the city. Their menu includes some more interesting choices like 'coca cola brisket BJ’s cornbread' and 'fried chicken and grits' as well as the standard eggs & bacon and french toast.

I love to walk down Roncesvalles Ave on a sunny day. Roncesvalles is an old Polish neighbourhood but it's been quite gentrified in the last decade or so - now you'll find lots of coffee shops, eco stores and fruit markets on this street. My fave Polish restaurant is still there - Cafe Polonez serves up some delicious Polish food like pierogi and cabbage rolls if you're into that.
