Sparrow Montreal

Although this place has been around since 2009, I've been a regular visitor for over a year only. And what a place!

The decor enchants me, delights me, everything pleases me greatly. Words fail me to describe the effect it has on me. Looks like another time, in another city, a little out-of-time. The wallpaper, the wooden furniture, the glossy black bar, everything not to mention the beautiful bathroom, charm me.

I often stop by in the late afternoon for a drink with friends and I end up tempted by the menu. I very much enjoy their butter chicken.

I finally tasted their famous brunch - there's always a line of trendy hipsters on weekends and as it's not possible to book, I often had to turn around. At last! I chose a classic: eggs benedict. Wow! It was served with a side of delicate homemade tater tots, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. I accompanied the dish with a delicious creamy café au lait.

However, you need to be hungry because the plate is well stocked.
