We dropped by to check out this Frankenstein of a creation we saw online. It was an espresso in a donut. Yup you read that right! Space is a little smaller than the old location but they now sell vinyl and books. The barista is a awesome. Super friendly and makes good coffee. There's a lot of different drinks you can get, the food menu looks a little limited at the moment but they're working on it. They're also working on a liquor license as well. Here's a pic of the donut coffee. The donut is really dense at the bottom but light on the top. There's also some Nutella or similar spread inside the donut. I'd say, I might get this again as they're willing to put any drink inside. I found the dense part of the donut heavy, so donut tops only for me! Hopefully they expand the food options, will be back though.

I had a flat white and a cheddar bacon scone. And they were so good! My decaf flat white was almost sweet without adding sugar! It was great! The scone was also delightful and came with butter.

I can still feel the formed butt divot of those before me, but at least they are ok to sit on for more than 2 minutes. A dry cappuccino came out very wet, as in way too much dairy; so disappointing, as we we pay a lot for the joy of a good coffee these days, but seldom get them. (...And this is why we rarely go out for coffee anymore. What we make at home is more reliably consistant and good.) A general observation, not specific to Bridgehead: corporations are, in my opinion, ruining the once lovely experience of going out for a delicious coffee

Little Victories didn't have Earle Grey tea which is not the end of the world. They didn't have a washroom which was problematic. $5.95 for a small paper cup of tea! The service was snooty - they questioned my choice of sweetener? Anyway, the ambiance is beautiful but wooden seats were uncomfortable... to say nothing about the lack of a washroom. All-in-all, a bad experience. I don't recommend Little Victories. (My regular coffee shops: Bridgehead - good, and Les Moulin la Fayette - fantastic!)

I thanked him and advised him that I was actually looking for food now and was about to leave, but then he said it was ok that he could make my food now. How nice is that, eh? I ordered 2 half chicken dinners. So the price was $13.55 each and I was prepared to pay this, but it turns out they were having a buy one get one free offer, which wasn't advertised anywhere, but hey, I took it. Awesome! So you get to chose your sauce for the chicken. I got Original, which is spicy, and I got my husband the Medium Sweet, since he likes less spicy than I do. The chicken came on a bed of rice with vegetables. The wait was about 35-40 minutes. The food smelled so good on the car ride home, lol. The Original sauce is somewhat sour, but the spices in it give it a more unique taste. The Medium Sweet sauce was, well, sweet, which I prefer over sour, but it was less unique, as I feel like I've had similar sauces before. I did like the spiciness of my sauce though. It packed a nice punch. The flavour profile of the Original was unlike any sauce that I have tasted before, and I love trying new things, so I liked it for that. I would love the spiciness of the Original, but the sweetness of the Medium Sweet. The chicken was tender and juicy. The rice was just ok IMO. It tasted a bit dry. It was rice with carrots, corn, peas and green beans. Seemed like a frozen vegetables mix. Service was very friendly and courteous. The restaurant is in the basement of a low-rise with other businesses in it. Betsi Chicken is inside D'Afrique Restaurant and Bar. I suspect they have the same owner, just different branding since it's different food (Betsi Chicken serves African grilled chicken, while D'Afrique Restaurant serves traditional Ethiopian food, like curries with injera). Street parking only.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Delicious bubble tea at this shop…read moretucked into the corner of a plaza. No real seating so I'd say takeout only. The Long Version: Bliss Tea opened up where Sip Tea used to be on Merivale Ave. I think they just rebranded because their drinks taste similar and when I entered my phone number to collect points, it already knew my name despite it being my first time there (I had an account with Sip Tea. Mind you I lost all those points and had to start over with Bliss Tea). I got the Coco Mango ($6.49) and added Tea Jelly (an additional $0.80). I got 30% sweet because 0% was not an option. I also got less ice. My drink was delicious! It contained lots of real mango pieces, rich and creamy coconut milk, and the tea jelly had a nice tea flavour and good texture. The tea jelly is big blobs of jelly like the pudding jelly or herbal/grass/Mesona jelly that's also a bubble tea topping option. It's not neat little cubes or rectangles like coconut jelly. They have a self-ordering kiosk where you select what you want on the screen and pay by card. If you want to pay cash you have to order from the cashier, but you can only pay cash at the cashier. You can't order from the cashier and pay by card. So many rules, lol. There are instructions next to the self-ordering kiosk and on the kiosk itself so it's pretty easy to use. I was thankful for the instructions because the screen was all in Chinese when I started but there were arrows that pointed where to press to change the language. Once it was in English it was really straightforward. Service was quick. I had very little interaction with staff. They basically called out my order number and gave me my drink, lol. There's no real seating. There's this bench along the wall towards the front and 2 really short stools (one of which was on top of the bench). I think it's just a place to sit while you wait for your drinks. It doesn't look like a comfortable place to hang out for long. The shop is in a plaza, so there's free parking in the shared parking lot. I'll definitely be back to try out other drinks. (194)
