In July 2009 when Lady Marmalade first opened, they promised "debit coming soon" - debit is still not available as of April 2010. Cash only. Luckily there is a TD a few doors down, and if you read this before or during your wait in the guaranteed…More »

  Update - 3/5/2010

The Chocolate Elvis (banana, peanut butter, honey and nutella) on an incredible pairing of egg bread slices is so, so good, but for $7 less I can make it for myself at home and skip the surly service that, along with too-long lineups on weekends, has…More »

Supremely yummy brunch options! I love Joy (and its sister restaurant, Over Joy - which is the upstairs portion) because it's off the beaten path and never overly crowded or hard to get a table. If you go, make sure you order Joy's Cheesy Eggs…More »

...and we're back. Service has returned to "I'm French, fabulous, and only partially care about you being here, but will still serve you with a modicum of courtesy and concern," which is a far cry from the former attitude of "I'm French, and I…More »

  Update - 11/28/2009

Regarding the "friendly servers who wait in the wings to serve you" - this has since changed and is the reason for my update. The friendly servers are long gone and have since been replaced with two new types: one is a surly, bitchy diva who acts…More »

NOTES:
