10 Best Brunches in Montreal | Condé Nast Traveler

"It's impossible to ignore the fragrance at this bakery-slash-deli in Le Plateau Mont-Royal, where chef and owner Jeffrey Finkelstein bakes bread for some of the most notable Montreal restaurants, including Joe Beef and Moishes. Finkelstein began his career at the French Culinary Institute in New York before working at Per Se, The French Laundry, el Bulli, and Noma. His shakshuka, which comes with merguez, has been praised as one of the best in Montreal; his French toast features challah, a fried egg, maple syrup, and—the pièce de résistance—veal pancetta. Cap the meal with a warm piece of fluffy, buttery chocolate babka." - Karin Eldor
