Went out for brunch at Le Select Bistro on Wellington this morning. The area is really quiet during the day on weekends and the food is amazing. The menu is very French and the dishes are well executed by a skilled kitchen. The front and back terraces are beautiful as is the decor inside. The white tile in the bar area and the chairs outside look like they may have come directly from any number of bistros in Paris.
I had the seared fresh foie gras served on a thin French toast with flambe pears, a cocotte egg and a Port maple sauce. Certainly not light fare, but it was excellent. My girlfriend had apple cranberry stuffed French toast which was also really good and everyone's plates looked great as they went by.
It was about $70 for both meals, a great dessert and a few drinks. It's a great place to spend a few hours on a nice day and only a short walk from Queen west shopping
