Cafe Comme Chez Soi (107 Fairmount Ouest): Last year at this time my favourite brunch find was La Cantine. I'm still fond of the place, but in the past few months, some of the details that made it so good have lost their shine. Luckily there are about 5 million brunch options within a 15 minute radius from home, and, ladies and gentleman, Andrew and I have found a new favourite. Cafe Comme Chez Soi is a tiny, tiny place, just up the street from Fairmount bagels. The food isn't gourmet like The Sparrow, but it's still pretty perfect and you don't have to wait 45 minutes for a table. The Comme Chez Soi breakfast has the maple syrupiest baked beans I've had in the city and they're never stingy with the fruit. The eggs benedict is wonderful, and today I watched as the cook whipped up the hollondaise sauce on the spot at the small stove in the back. Bonus: the people who work at the restaurant are kind and friendly. Guys, go here for breakfast! But don't go all at once - like I said, it's pretty small. And don't steal our table either.
