I heard of this restaurant on Instagram & decided to make the trip to Montreal to give it a try. While I haven't had the chance to sample their dinner menu, I must say their breakfast options are outstanding. The wait time for service was a bit longer than expected, which might be due to occasional staffing shortages. As for the food: The peanut porridge was a perfect 10/10. The ackee & saltfish with boiled dumplings were also a 10/10. One standout item was the ackee & saltfish eggroll, a unique twist I hadn't tried before. It was incredibly flavorful & my personal favorite. Given that each order includes only three eggrolls, you may want to consider ordering a second set! I also tried their sorrel, which was perfectly made, especially to my taste buds, not too sweet, not too bitter, with a nice hint of ginger. Since my first visit, I've returned twice, & I look forward to exploring their dinner menu soon.
