text: Walking through the downtown core and into the Plateau on Sunday we were halfconvinced some worldimportant event had occured that kept everyone chained to the TVs inside their houses We were wrong and the crowd in The Resevoir at noon when we arrived proved it However a table for two was not hard to come by and we waited a mere ten minutes giving us plenty of time to debate our menu choices displayed on a big board behind the barnnIt was a difficult decision Health concerns pushed me towards a fruit salad that sounded scrumptious nuts and prunes how tasty yet i gave in to a carb craving and ordered crepes with a pear compote yogurt and maple syrup Rather unfortunately ten minutes after ordering our waitress returned to ask me if pineapple compote would be okay because they had just run out of pear le sigh I love pineapple but i am not a big citrus marmalade gal My plate arrived Three medium sized pancakes overlapping with a layer of jam and yogurt in between each and ample yogurt elsewhere on the plate Carb heavennnLuckily my companion did not give in to a carb temptation He ordered duck with bread and fried pancetta I stole a bite and although i believe i like my duck a little more done it was still very very tasty An unfortunate oversight no steak knives with the duck However the beverages fresh orangegrapefruit juice and my earl grey tea which they steamed my milk for were a pleasant addition Did i mention the plentiful freshlybaked bread with butter that should have been salted but that is a true preference thingnnResevoir needed to be visited The ambiance is superb and the food worth the money from to my crepes were and more than filling enough It has not supplanted A as my favourite breakfast place but it does have my recommendation
