Toronto ON
As we still haven’t found a great Benny yet here in Hogtown and we are now on day 5 it’s about high time to get that issue resolved.
Ma Maison is trying to do what Cluny did in creating a little slice of Paris in TO, just not quite as well. Props for trying though. It is a lovely little café.
The latté was lovely. I really think Starbucks needs to start properly training their Baristas and demanding consistent quality. Great foam and proper tasting espresso. Nicely done.
The Eggs Benedict was very good as well. The peameal bacon works so much better than your traditional slice of ham, the eggs were poached perfectly and it was on a croissant. Not the usual English muffin but excellent.
I also decided to give the pistachio cake a go even though it was 10am.
I probably should have skipped it. Not due to the early hour, due to its freshness. Had it not been in the display case for a few days it would have been great. Unfortunately it was quite dried out. You win some you lose some.
So if your on Bloor near Jane and your hankering for a pretty good Benny and latté check out Ma Maison.
