"It’s not uncommon to see a queue snaking out the door at this adored Old Montreal restaurant, which really is worth the wait. In the morning, patrons go for chia pudding, a panini filled with egg salad, speck, and cheese, or a sweet ricotta plate served with brioche bread. Part bakery, Olive et Gourmando’s pastries — croissants, muffins, scones, and more — are equally delicious and perfect for breakfast on the go." - Valerie Silva, Holly Tousignant
