Montreal’s Bistro Français de Quartier.
- 950, rue Roy E, Montréal QC, H2L 1E8
Located on a picturesque corner in the plateau is Bistro Le Passé Composé. The exterior of this bistro Français just begs for you to come in and stay a while. Once inside, you’ll feel as if you have entered a warm home. Walls adorned with art (which you can purchase), people perusing the newspaper whilst sipping on a latté, and smiling waitresses greeting you.
I had heard about this place a while ago and decided to finally make my way over. The seasonal menu was intriguing, especially for a brunch place. I’ve grown accustomed to finding seasonal menus across Montreal, but not often enough for breakfast!
I urge you to try the panko french toast. It is heavenly. And their eggs benedict (all of them) are inventive and unique. They also seem to be known for their gourmet grilled cheeses, so I’ll be back to try those! We ordered the “Oeuf Poché Champêtre”- poached eggs, mini shitake mushrooms, parsley, smoked pork shoulder, and porcini sauce all atop brioche bread. Both the french toast and poached eggs were served with fruit and an adorable smoothie shot.
The amazing food was tied together perfectly with a splendid latté served in a bowl the size of my head.
If you haven’t yet, you need to head over to Le Passé Composé. Is there a better way to start your Sunday morning? In my opinion, no. But I’m always up for some healthy competition :). Send me your favourite MTL brunch spots! Comment below!
