Never tried anything but their brunch which is amazing and different from anywhere else. Portions are normal (not for the mega big appetite) but food is quality! Very child-friendly for such an "adult" spot. They have crayons and toys for kids :)

Breakfast and brunch restaurant. Be prepared to do a line-up on weekends after 10am. Their menu is very different and more original from regular breakfast spots and definitely worth it! There's another spot on Mt-Royal avenue but I like this one better. Everything is good! A little pricier than your average 6$ breakfast spot.

Residents jog the trails on a daily basis. You can also bring your lunch and picnik pretty much anywhere. Summer Sundays are for laid back vacationers and locals, where you'll find people playing music and drums at the bottom of the mountain. There's a lake halfway to the top and all the way to the top you can find an observatory with the prettiest view of the city. In the winter you'll be able to cross-country ski your way through the many diverse trails.
