Brunch in Montreal's Quartier Des Spectacles

Eggspectation resto cafe Joshua Sham's favourite Montreal brunch spot
This Eggspectations location in the Quartier des Spectacles, Montreal, QC exceeded my expectations with both their cleanliness, service and quality of food.

Joshua Sham is a brunch reviewer from Toronto, ON.

I have exceptionally high standards when it comes to breakfast / brunch because it's not only my favourite meal, but I eat brunch at least two times a week. As a rule of thumb, I judge a brunch restaurant by their ability to make over easy eggs and I was not disappointed. I ordered their high rise pancakes (4.5 of 5) and was pleased that it was served hot, had plenty of flavour and offered more than enough to fill my stomach. Unfortunately, my friend said that the breakfast poutine was (1 of 5) mediocre for both breakfast and poutine. Given the large selection of great breakfast options leave the poutine to lunch or dinner. The California Dreaming (4 of 5) was decent but failed to provide any WOW factor. The Yolk Around The Clock (4 of 5) was fun and above average for a cheesy dismantled breakfast sandwich bagel. The Eggs Florentine (4 of 5) was delicious and did not disappoint.
