What we loved This bright and inviting atmosphere is perfect for those weekend brush visits. With little nooks and even a second level, this space is big, but feels so cozy and warm. If you’re looking for a brunch menu that is deliciously different than your typical eggs and bacon, this Lebanese restaurant is the place to try. This new brunch menu was launched in November, and is available only at their Kitsilano location on Saturdays and Sundays from 11:30 p.m. to 3 p.m.
