One of the reasons that I take all reviews with a grain of salt. Although I have to say that there's a circle of hell reserved just for people who cheap out on the cheese in an omelette. My friend was very wowed by her salad too—actually by everything she had on both visits. If you're inclined to give them a second chance go in the evening and have the cocktail that combines bourbon and maple syrup. Seriously yummy. I've heard their Croque Madame is also exceptional.

I only wish I had someone knowledgable to make my own site look this spanky! So congrats. I never had a chance to put it on my own site but I did stop by the Corner Suite for brunch two weeks ago and was underwhelmed. While the servers were polite and efficient, I was served lukewarm (really...almost cold) water in my tea and my entree was pretty lackluster. I ordered the thyme and goat cheese omelette and was left wishing they had sauteed some baby spinach and roasted garlic in there just to add some flavour...there was very little chevre (just a blob in one corner) and just a big mass of egg. The side salad was absolutely delicious but I think that I shouldn't be remembering the salad more than the main event! The cocktails do sound amazing and even got a mention in this month's Food and Wine, so I will have to give them another go after dark. First off…let me say, “How gorgeous is this new blog?”.
