“the shakshuka had serious heat and the harissa base was complex like my taste buds were gonna crazy. seriously finally found a calgary brunch place that actually gets real spice”

“look the bread was so plain and boring tho - needed something with actual character to soak up that incredible spicy tomato sauce”

“ricotta hotcakes are like eating sweet clouds - super light wiht fresh berries and maple syrup. legit the texture is just right, fluffy without being dense”

“bacon side was overcooked to teh point where it was brittle and tasted like nothing would go back”

“ngl teh breakfast sandwich was literally perfect - runny yolk oozing everywhere over thick bacon in a perfectly toasted BRIOCHE bun simple stuff done exactly right”

“hash browns were soggy and pre made for sure!!! like tehy nailed the sandwich so the sides feeling like an afterthought is kinda frustrating chefs kiss”

“their turkey sausage breakfast bowl was great and it was clearly labeled halal on the menu which was awesome. legit staff actually knew what they were doing with ingredients and stuff so it was stress free solid”

“but halal options are pretty limited beyond the turkey sausage. would be cool to see more variety for muslim diners cuz otherwise this place seems pretty inclusive”

“yo tehir lemon ricotta pancakes were like eating clouds honestly, topped with berry compote that was the perfect balance of TART and sweet the kind of breakfast dessert that makes you wanna wake up”

“coffee was weak and bitter which is sad cuz the food is so beautiful!!! coffee should be on the same level when you're serving stuff like that trust me”

“for 16 bucks the shakshuka portion is realy generous and comes with tons of crusty bread for dipping. tomato base is rich and smoky and they don't hold back on the feta cheese ugh”

“coffee refills cost 3 dollars each which adds up fast if you're gonna sit there and linger over brunch”
