Brunch and other good things

[mousme]

Okay, so this week brunch will take place as usual at 10:30am at the Eggspectations at the AMC Forum.


However, since a number of people have complained about prices (and I admit, I find them a bit steep too), I want suggestions for a different brunch venue. Obviously, this applies to the Montrealers on my friends list. Sorry to all you out-of-towners, but you lack the local knowledge to help me out, here. ;)

Here are the criteria:

A) Fairly central location to downtown, or really accessible by metro. I don't want people getting lost on the bus or anything. Brunch is not meant to be a hassle.

B) Reasonably inexpensive. $10 and above is what we spend at Eggspectations, so anywhere that can offer decent-quality food for less is welcome.

C) A reasonable amount of variety in the menu. Not everyone wants eggs and sausage for breakfast. :)

Basically, use your common sense when making suggestions.

In good weather you could picnic.

Yeah, but we live in Montreal, where there are two seasons: Winter and Construction.

That makes possibly eight weeks out of fifty-two that we could reasonably picnic. Picnics also take a lot more planning. Not the best option, but good every now and then.

And we're right in the middle of those eight weeks - why waste it?

The Old Port is great for that, especially near Square Victoria. I used to picnic every lunch that it was nice out when I was working in the area.
