This small place is tucked away on Denman Street, amidst a multitude of other restaurants. I might never have come across it by chance, had I not picked up a book that referenced it.

This place does not have the hype of some of the other more popular brunch places and thus will spare you the hour-long waiting lists. I visited around 1 in the afternoon on a Sunday. It has about 10 tables, half of which were empty.

The place definitely has an older feel to it, but I liked the quiet and the space. It was opened in 1977 by a french chef.

I ordered the Pacific Egg Benedict. It was presented very nicely and came with a small green salad and french fries. I enjoyed every bit of this simple brunch! The salad had a wonderful vinaigrette dressing and the 2 eggs each came on it's own yummy bread with salmon and asparagus. Fries were also very tasty.

This brunch plate was a reasonable $12 and so I would definitely come back to try more dishes when I'm in the area.
