Super chill Persian-inspired cafe on Wellington.
They have poetry/Spoken Word shows on Fridays & it's doing it's best to establish itself as a neighbourhood cafe & I really hope they succeed. They serve brunch on weekends which include items like bagels & cream cheese but also muhammara, baked eggs in a garlicky tomato sauce with pita bread. This is one of the few places where I've seen rosewater lattes which I love sipping on everytime I'm here. Since we just came out of autumn & are heading into winter, you also of course have pumpkin & pistachio lattes as well. They make smoothies with Medjool dates & a lot of the pastries here are based on almonds & pistachios. There are a few plush seats in the front & the terrace opens out onto the street during the summer, with Spanish guitar, or Arabic & Persian folk music on the sound system. Service is super chill & friendly. I love speanding time here & just catching up on reading, writing when the inspiration hits.

This café is a bit more of a walk from my place but i find myself coming back more & more because of its charm. Great selection of pastries (including gluten free options), & brunch items like sandwiches & good tea & coffee options. They've got a large selection of seats 2 including arm chair sofas in the front. They've also got a self-serve water dispenser with cups & even some books/magazines to flip through.
I got the chocolate cake slice I got was soft & moist with a slightly textured exterior & the hot chocolate was decadent & rich. On a different occasion i came with a friend & have tried both the lamb sausage sandwich & the hummus sandwhich. The hummus sandwhich was great but could have been slightly more filling with more toppings/sauce in there while the lamb sausage sandwhich was really juicy, filling & flavourful. I'm definitely looking forward to make this cozy spot a go to in the future.

Bel endroit tranquille pour les gens voulant travailler ou encore relaxer. Leur carte de dessert est bien remplie. J'ai trouvé le coût de boissons chaudes un peu plus cher qu'ailleurs mais le café & le thé sont de bonne qualité. Je ne recommande pas les sandwichs, que j'ai trouvé cher & la sauce rosée piquante. J'ai commandé celui au merguez qui était bon mais sans accompagnement. & on goûtait peu la seule merguez à cause de la sauce. Je m'attendais à quelque chose de plus étant donné le prix. Le sandwich au poulet, que mon amie a commandé n'était pas supposé être piquant, mais comme il avait de la sauce rosée, il l'était. Il y avait aussi des ingrédients qui n'étaient pas dans la description, comme des olives, que mon amie n'aime pas. Service adéquat & gens sympathiques.

Je suis allé là-bas spécifiquement pour un couscous. J'avais entendu de bonnes critiques à ce sujet, alors je me suis dit "essayons !". Eh bien, quelle déception. Le couscous était correct. Ce n'était pas mauvais, mais ce n'était pas excellent non plus. Son plus gros défaut était qu'il était trop sec : le poulet trop cuit, pas de sauce... J'aurais pu m'en contenter, mais pas pour le prix auquel ils le vendent. 24 $ pour une portion pas si grande... Le ratio n'est pas bon selon moi. Je peux facilement trouver un meilleur couscous en centre-ville pour moins cher... ------------------------------------------------- I went there specifically for a couscous. I have heard nice review about it, so I was like "let's try it!". Well, what a disappointment. The couscous was ok. I wasn't bad, but it wasn't excellent, neither. Its biggest default was that it was too dry: chicken too much cooked, no sauce... I could have been ok with it, but not for the price they are selling it. 24$ for a not that big portion ... The ratio price/quality-quantity is not that good. I can easily find better couscous downtown for cheaper ...
