My favourite café in Montreal hands down. It feels so cozy & homey, perfect for catching up with a friend, journaling, drawing or just sipping on some really good tea. I always get the Persian Fog & it never disappoints. It's a perfect balance between sweet & salty. I've also tried the Persian Fragrance tea which is another great option & the Chicken Koukou. Not a huge fan of the chicken Koukou as I found it to be a bit bland, but that's a personal preference.
