New Hot Brunch Spot In The City: Cacao 70

When Monday mornings start with chocolate and brunch, you know you’ll have a terrific week ahead.Today, my girlfriend Meli and this mama decided to plan a girly date having a sweet and salty brunch at the newest Cacao 70 location, Galeries D’Anjou.If you haven’t lived a Cacao 70 experience yet, first: excuse MOI? second: you gotta run here.This place began a few years back as a chocolate bar (I remember our first visit here when Nico was a tiny little baby) and today, they became a factory, a sweet house, an eatery and a dip shop across the country.Bonus points: they have the most beautiful tiles, ever.

This new hot Brunch spot in Montreal serves both sweet and savoury plates, from ice cream waffles, dipped ice cream to scrumptious omelettes and on point coffee, as always.  Even though I am more into salty things than sweets, I do love mixing a bit of both from time to time, especially when chocolate is involved, duh.This new location and sweet house serve chocolate everything and what’s best: all-day brunch!We adored the counter-style concept, and whether you are in the mood to do a casual brekkie any day with your friends or a cute date with your loved one, or even a family adventure (oh hello, sugar high!), this is THE place.What we tried (and trust me, it was such a perfectly sweet moment!):Salty– Omelette du bonheur: zucchinis, red bell peppers, spinach, tomato, green onions and goat cheese.- Omelette du lendemain: bacon, red bell peppers, green onions, cheddar cheese, and pesto.all served with potatoes, fruits, and a small chocolate fondue.Sweet– Waffle le blackjack: a waffle with a vanilla ice cream cone, chocolate with sesame, whipped cream, creme brulee cheesecake bites, strawberries and black sesame seeds.- Sweet Pizza: a quart only, triple chocolate (black, white and with milk), strawberries, bananas and chocolate fondue.yes, this was pretty darn epic.

yeeeeesssss! so sweeeeeeettttt

Casually having a food coma, with no regrets.

This waffle Le Blackjack was NO JOKE!
