Brunch catchup with my friend Alexei to taste some of the new brunch menu items at one of my favourite restaurants in the Riley Park neighborhood.

Locally made Culture Craft Ginger Berry Kombucha to start off

Locally baked sourdough with housemade carrot butter, complimentary for each table.

The Skillet with potatoes, Swiss chard, brown butter hollandaise and a tomato jam, a hearty and delicous dish.

Beggars Banquet of the day that my friend Alexei had.

Artichoke with Southern Fried Artichokes, House Waffles, Pickled Shallots, Bourbon Maple Syrup, Mushroom Red-Eye Gravy that we both shared.

Berries & Meringue made with a toasted chickpea meringue, berries, sorrel, macadamia, a yummy vegan dessert that both shared.
