Spécialité à tester qui vaut le détour. C'est super bon! Pas mal de choix dans les propositions, du sucré mais aussi du salé. C'est chaud, c'est délicieux & on s'en met partout mais comme ils dise?t'messy is good'!

Spécialité à faire à Montréal, avec plusieurs options de garniture sucrés/sales. De manière personnel, j'ai apprécié même si ce n'est pas mon dessert préféré.
A noter les tables n'étaient pas forcément très bien nettoyées mais peut être que nous sommes venus au mauvais moment.
