The service at the place was excellent and both the layout and design are quite appealing, no row (i.e. blaring musing), and importantly the establishment is smoke-free. Upon arrival we were seated almost immediately and ordered coffees and juice which came within 5 minutes. After this we proceeded to our brunch which consisted of the two-person platter Paco Loco consisting of eggs, sausages, bacon, bacon jam, cheese, pancakes, and a salad with a lemon vinaigrette and avocado(which had in fact not been stored properly), the kadaifi, a salmon bagel, and a stack of lemon-berry pancakes (can’t quite remember the exact name of it). Presentation wise things looked quite appealing on the surface, the portions seemed fair, and they seemed to be made to order. Out of all the dishes the salmon bagel was the soundest and tastiest of everything. The kadaifi was underwhelming to say the least as it was extremely oily and somewhat burnt. Regarding the Paco Loco dish. The positive: The bacon jam was quite good The silver dollar pancakes were also tasty yet weren’t sufficient to make little stuffed crepes for the whole dish. (so, it’s both positive and negative) The sausage was delicious The negative: The bacon was significantly under-cooked The avocado in the salad was blackened, hard, and had a funny taste The scrambled eggs were far from scrambled. They had congealed into a “harder” mass making the eggs more like a broken omelet than scrambled eggs. Regarding the pancakes the combination and size was good. Quite a tart/tangy taste in the “sauce” and topping, but that’s what we were going for. The pancakes themselves were somewhat floury and quite flavorless. This can be remedied by ensuring every bite you have is covered in the topping/ cream sauce. The coffee was decent. The fresh juice / smoothie was a mix of various fruits and was bland. It almost tasted like it was 50% juice and 50% water or something. The total bill rang up a total of around EUR 50, so it doesn’t break the bank, but for the same money there are much better options. The establishment’s saving graces were a. the service and b. the ambience. It was quite disappointing because picture wise and review wise I had built the place up in my head and expected a good meal, and I got something...

I had a rather disappointing visit to this brunch restaurant this morning. The highlight of my disappointment was the so-called 'Hollandaise' sauce that accompanied my Eggs Benedict. I expressed my concern to the waitress about how it neither looked nor tasted like a proper Hollandaise but rather resembled a Béchamel sauce. To my surprise, she brushed off my complaint, insisting that their chef knows what's in it. What bothered me even more was her attempt to involve another customer, who conveniently happened to be a chef, sitting nearby, making it feel like an unnecessary spectacle.

I requested to see both sauces, and it was evident that the other one was indeed a Béchamel, while the one they presented as a Hollandaise was far from it. When I asked the neighboring diner if he noticed the difference, he simply claimed that 'every restaurant does it its own way.' In my opinion, there's a traditional way to make Hollandaise with three main ingredients, and flour or starch isn't one of them.

Furthermore, there was a problem in ordering a classical Eggs Benedict as it was not on the menu but at the end I received the salmon version without salmon, with bacon on the side.

We also ordered two different coffees, one medium sweet and one sweet, but they tasted identical, both sweet.

When I raised my concerns about the sauce to the waitress, she unconvincingly explained that it was their unique take on Hollandaise, less sour than usual. However, I would have appreciated witnessing the chef's preparation to understand their approach.

Regrettably, I didn't voice my dissatisfaction to the management, as the waitress appeared to hold a managerial role herself and was unresponsive to my concerns. Overall, my experience left me with a sense of frustration and disappointment, especially given the high expectations I had for a brunch outing.

Did I have a wow moment? Sure I did, but it was not on the food.

Do I recommend this for brunch? Definitely not. There are way better places to have real eggs Benedict.

Στην αξιολόγηση της πρώτης μας επίσκεψης προ πενταετίας (την οποία δε σβήσαμε αλλά έχουμε παραθέσει πιο κάτω) είχαμε βάλει 5 στα 5 έχοντας φύγει από το μαγαζί ενθουσιασμένοι με όσα φάγαμε. Πρώτη φορά επαναξιολογούμε μαγαζί πηγαίνοντας από την κορυφή στον πάτο.

Πήγαμε για brunch. Φτάσαμε περίπου στις 4 παρά τέταρτο το μεσημέρι και ζητήσαμε καταλόγους για να ρίξουμε μια ματιά όσο περιμέναμε τον τρίτο της παρέας. Μας έφεραν καταλόγους για κανονικό φαγητό κι όταν ήρθε ο τρίτος της παρέας στις 4 παρά 5 ρωτήσαμε αν μπορούσαμε να παραγγείλουμε brunch. Μας ενημέρωσε ότι μπορούσαμε να πάρουμε μόνο από τα γλυκά του brunch κι ότι η κουζίνα για τα αλμυρά έκλεινε στις 4. Έπρεπε να είχαμε φύγει εκείνη τη στιγμή όχι μόνο επειδή σε ένα μαγαζί όπου ο περισσότερος κόσμος πηγαίνει για το brunch ο σερβιτόρος δε μας ενημέρωσε εγκαίρως για το κλείσιμο της κουζίνας του αλμυρού brunch, αλλά κι επειδή δε δέχτηκαν να μας εξυπηρετήσουν για αυτό που θέλαμε παρότι ήμαστε έστω και οριακά μέσα στα χρονικά περιθώρια. Δε φύγαμε (δυστυχώς...) επειδή η ζέστη ήταν αφόρητη, εμείς ήμαστε κουρασμένοι και εκεί που καθίσαμε ήταν αρκετά δροσερά.

Το κοκτέιλ που πήραμε ήταν τεράστιο σε ποσότητα (τέλειο για 2 άτομα), καλούτσικο γευστικά αλλά ήρθε σε ραγισμένο ποτήρι, οπότε το γυρίσαμε πίσω και αντί να μας φτιάξουν άλλο για λόγους υγιεινής και ασφάλειας, απλά μας το μετάγγισαν σε άλλο ποτήρι. Οι γλυκοπατάτες με την τρούφα ήταν θαυμάσιες (και μόνο για αυτές είναι το ένα αστέρι της αξιολόγησής μας), αλλά ήταν κρίμα που σερβιρίστηκαν με τεμπέλικη σως (μαγιονέζα) και μάλιστα σε πολύ μικρή ποσότητα. Πόσο δύσκολο είναι να φτιαχτεί ένα ξινό/δροσερό dip; Η πίτσα που πήραμε δεν ήταν κάτι το ιδιαίτερο, χωρίς ίχνος ειρωνίας/αλαζονείας θα πούμε ότι στο σπίτι φτιάχνουμε πολύ καλύτερη και με πολύ ανώτερο ζυμάρι. Χειρότερα όλων τα pancakes. Τα δικά μου, τα Lila Pause, ήταν τα πιο στεγνά και πιο απαράδεκτα pancakes που έχω φάει ποτέ, σε σημείο που αναρωτηθήκαμε από πότε είχαν ξεμείνει. Παρότι πεινούσα πολύ, με το ζόρι έφαγα δύο πιρουνιές και μάλιστα τη δεύτερη την έφαγα μόνο για επιβεβαίωση, επειδή αδυνατούσα να πιστέψω το πόσο χάλια ήταν... Η κολλητή μου επέλεξε τα Light-Lemon-Berry που της εκθείασα επειδή με είχαν εντυπωσιάσει την πρώτη φορά που τα δοκίμασα, αλλά και τα δικά της είχαν εξίσου χάλια ζύμη, με τη μόνη διαφορά ότι τα δικά της είχαν και μια ξανθιά τρίχα μέσα. Ενημερώσαμε τον σερβιτόρο ο οποίος τα απέσυρε και μας ρώτησε αν θέλαμε να μας φέρει κάτι άλλο, αλλά μετά από το ραγισμένο ποτήρι, τα στεγνότατα pancakes, την τρίχα και το γεγονός ότι τρώγαμε διαφορετικά φαγητά από αυτά που πραγματικά θέλαμε να είχαμε παραγγείλει, ξενερώσαμε και δε ζητήσαμε κάτι άλλο. Εκ των υστέρων σκεφτήκαμε ότι έπρεπε να είχα επιστρέψει και τα δικά μου pancakes αφού ήταν πολύ κακά και δε φαγώθηκαν. Ωστόσο είναι ενδεικτικό του χαμηλού πλέον επιπέδου του μαγαζιού το γεγονός ότι δε ρωτηθήκαμε καν αν ήταν όλα καλά με το γεύμα μας, ακόμα κι όταν είδαν ότι ένα πιάτο έμεινε σχεδόν ανέγγιχτο.

Γενικά πολύ δυσάρεστη εμπειρία και η αίσθηση που μας άφησε το μαγαζί ήταν αυτή της παραμέλησης. Από τα πιο χαραμισμένα 40 ευρώ που έχουμε ξοδέψει ποτέ.

7.8.2024

(Πρώτη αξιολόγηση:

Μια άριστη εμπειρία brunch! Τα lemon-berry pancakes ήταν τα νοστιμότερα pancakes που έχουμε φάει στη Θεσσαλονίκη και τα μόνα με φρέσκα φρούτα του δάσους και το chicken sandwich καλό και ποιοτικό. Ο υπεύθυνος που μας εξυπηρέτησε μάς έφτιαξε τη διάθεση και είναι ο ιδανικός άνθρωπος για το πόστο. Το μαγαζί πεντακάθαρο, άψογα οργανωμένο (υπήρχαν μέχρι και υγρά μαντηλάκια στα τραπέζια) και με τέλεια μουσική στη σωστή ένταση. Το συνιστούμε ανεπιφύλακτα και σίγουρα θα...
