A friend had recommended Can Can Brasserie. Since we were in Carytown for the day, we decided to have a late lunch at Can Can Brassiere. Our server Bucc was friendly, polite, and attentive.

My boyfriend had a beer while I had the Coconut Matcha Lemonade. It was sweet, bubbly, and quite refreshing.

We started our meal with a cup of Onion Soup Gratinee, which consisted of sweet and savory beef broth, onions, baguette, and melted gruyere. It was so delicious I left no trace of it (and that includes the melted cheese around the cup).

My boyfriend had a Cheeseburger topped with Gruyere Cheese and served with Frites. The cheeseburger was such a huge portion, he said he didn't need dinner LOL The frites were fresh and crispy and came with ketchup.

There were so many items on the menu that I wanted to try. I ended up getting the Quiche Du Jour, which consisted of lobster, bacon, and gruyere cheese quiche. It was serves with baby greens and shallots tossed in a champagne vinaigrette. The quiche was tall and wide and I could not finish it. As for the salad, I would have preferred pickled shallots over diced raw shallots or onions.
