Le Petit DejeunerThe Belgian waffles are so spectacular here that on Saturday mornings
people can be seen lined up along the street, patiently waiting for a table.
The waffles must be spectacular in order to compete with the other outstanding breakfast dishes, which draws diners from all over Toronto.
A true Belgian chef brings a European twist to all of the meals at
Le Petit Dejeuner, which is fast gaining a reputation for their signature dinner dishes as well.
Dinner dishes include: fish and chips made with tilapia and real frites; savoury crepes with various fillings; and an excellent vegetarian risotto.
The
famous weekend brunch includes Eggs Benny, Benjamin, Florentine, and Veronique. Their Croque Monsieur is so authentic that you will think you are in a cafe in Paris. Crepes, omelettes, bacon and eggs, and authentic apple pancakes round out the fare in the event that your are not there for the mouth watering waffles.
Located in the Old Town of York,
Le Petit Dejeuner is in the
Home Decor Shops, the
Sony Centre,
St.Lawrence Centre theatres and the
St. Lawrence Market. It is perfectly located for a great dinner after a day of shopping.
The restaurant has become an integral part of this very old neighbourhood - with a Belgian twist. You can bring your own wine to dinner (corkage fee applies) and if its a Thursday or Friday there is often a live band there to keep you entertained.
Chef Maes often runs
cooking classes at certain times of the year and it is well worth signing up for the course, which you get to eat.
