Has anyone else been going to Brassaii? I went twice many months ago and was put off by the inattentive and mildly arrogant staff but I think the restaurant is beautfiul...

Love it! Especially sitting outside in the summer. As far as staff and ambience - oh and food, we have always enjoyed ourselves tremendously. I really think you hit someone on a bad night. The only downside we have experienced with the place is that the other tables can feel TOO CLOSE sometimes.

Love Brassaii too, although I find it to be a bit rich for brunch. One cannot overlook brunch at Thuet - awesome french toast, or try the house made smoked salmon. Less expensive and very good is Dessert Trends on Harbord - especially the apple pancakes, or the crispy crab sandwich! The Drake has been turning out awesome baked goods and other dishes like fab eggs benny (1000 X better than carousel BB), chicken wings and waffles, buttermilk pancakes.

re: Sugarcube
Going to disagree with you on Musa. Just came back from it. Not *bad* - but certainly no better than mediocre. Waited at door even though tables open and no one ahead of us. Once seated, very slow service. Noise level **far** too loud. Dishes that did not come together; quality and flavour just OK. And for brekky, the lamest toast I've had in a long while. Cold, soggy and very ordinary.
I'll try it once more in case this was an off day for them, but it was at best mediocre.

re: kathleen
I've got to disagree on this one. We've given it a number of chances since it opened a few years ago, then we finally gave up. The cooks were never able to keep up with the orders. We often waited upwards of 45 minutes to an hour for food that was never very good. A few nicely arranged pieces of fruit on the plate cannot disguise mediocre food.
