Tango du Chat Pancake: Meringe Pancake with Mascarpone Cream Cheese & Summer Berries.
Not your typical American pancake. A lot thicker, fluffy with a base of maple syrup on the plate perfectly paired with fresh summer berries, nuts and a light and fluffy better than whipped cream sweet mascarpone cream cheese. Normally not one who loves pancakes, this dish was amazing!
Eggs Benedict: Homemade English Muffin, Poached Eggs, Proscuitto, Smoked Salmon Romaine Lettuce, Saffron Hollandaise Sauce.
The homemade English muffin had a very crispy bottom - excellent contrast to the texture of the egg and sauce. One piece had smoked salmon while the other had proscuitto. Both very good.
I would've ordered the French Toast, but they were sold out by then already! Great prices for excellent brunch food!
Brunch set comes with a beverage, coffee or juice of your choice. Iced Americano for me!
The owner likes to keep this place homey and quaint. Make reservations and you won't have to wait. Overall a very nice place for a pleasant brunch experience!
Just on the main street - passed by it all the time but finally tried their brunch and was extremely pleased! I am not even a huge brunch food fan - but this is somewhere I would come back to again!
What? Tango du Chat - great quality European style brunch food.
Who? Family with older kids, couples, friends who enjoy a nice atmosphere with great food.
When? Open 365 days a year. Brunch is served on weekdays from 12-3 p.m. and weekends until 4 p.m. However, they run out of ingredients on popular dishes, so book reservations for an earlier time slot!
Parking? Yes, there is a small underground lot just to the left of the restaurant. If there isn't a space in there, you will have to find elsewhere.
Cards Accepted? Yes

Perfect combination for a hot and spicy, cool and creamy, satisfying and filling snack to share!
A small cafe like place serving only 떡볶기 (DdukBokKi - spicy chewy rice cakes), 주목밥 (JooMokBab - rice balls mixed with ground beef, seasoned seaweed, sesame seeds and sesame seed oil), and 팥빙수 (PatBingSoo - milky shaved ice dessert)
Spicy and more spicy version of 덖볶기 (ddukbokki) along with 주목밥 (JooMokBab).
Each serving is in it's own bowl. Great combination to mix/dip the rice in the sauce of the ddukbokki. You can add however many eggs in the dukkbokki for 500won each.
The regular spicy version was perfect. Not too spicy, not too salty. Loved having lots of sauce along with the bits of sesame seed leaves for garnish. I normally don't love 주목밥 (JooMokBab) because it's too plain, but this one was seasoned nicely with bits of ground beef and just the right amount of seaweed and sesame seed oil to make it nice - and it was great dipped in the ddukbokki sauce!
미숫기루빙수 (MiSootGaru BingSoo) - My new favourite 팥빙수 for this season (so far)!
Super soft and flaky milk bingsoo with Misoot Garu (Korean grain powder) sprinkled in and around the shaved ice. Topped with soft, sweet cubes of rice cake, crunchy bits of dried dates and filled in the centre with (팥 - Paht) sweet red bean.
Ddukbokki - 3500Won, Each Egg - 500Won, Rice Ball - 3000Won
Black Sesame PatBingSoo, MIsoot Garu PatBingSoo, Strawberry or Mango PatBingSo - 7500won each
What? Korean snack and dessert
Who? All ages, anyone who likes ddukbokki and patbingsoo. The space is quite small with two patio seats on the street, but it is not recommended for big parties. I would say 2-4 people tables were the typical seating sizes.
