So we’re hanging out at Maison Selby, this funky French joint on Sherbourne. We were here a couple years back for some especially good escargot, but now it’s brunch time, and they’re about to funk it up another notch. They’re taking this classic French sandwich, la Croque Madame, and turning it into a crepe!? Shuttez le phoque up ET fetchez la vache, bro!!!!
Of course, here on Triple B, we took it up another notch by adding a side of bacon. And man, their four-dollar side of bacon is enough bacon for two people — non-citizens of Flavourtown, that is. You’ve got ham and cheese on the inside (plus some spinach at the end for some reason), two runny eggs on top, and then that bacon giving it a nice little chew. Man, I’d eat that every day of the week!!!!
Now, I really wanted to order their cocktail called Sacre Bleu, add a bacon garnish and call it Tabarnak, but it seems they were all out of the ingredients last weekend. So instead I went with a Lemonade Stand, this tart ‘n tangy lactose sour from Indie Alehouse. A glass of this Lemonade Stand costs a lot more than a quarter, though — at Maison Selby, it’s $11.25, bro!!!!!!
