So I placed an order order for egg waffles took about 10ish minutes that's fair. I heard about this place for. IG however I don't see the hype. I do understand very hard working couple in the back very polite and kind. I ordered sesame bubble waffle and matcha wanted to try. Total should have been 9$ however they charged me $10 not a big deal their tip or tax or maybe they didn't have change in cash. Black Sesame one came out crispy, matcha flavor wise wasn't too memorable. My friend wanted to order ice cream the lychee and ube was out. Settled for mango. They took time to decorate the ice cream apparently made in house. 3.98$ plus tax for 1 scoop. Price was decent they had some other deals such as original bubble waffle 1 for $4 or 2 for 6$. Special drink items 1$. For cheap eats in the area it's good. Nothing overly memorable. Hard working family appreciate the hustle.

Their egg waffles are always freshly made and its crispy, it's legit bomb! My kids love them and so do I. The owners are super nice and sweet. When they see my kids, they would offer them a little treat like candy or freezies. They offer a variety of drinks and desserts. Ice cream is offered in many different flavors. Original egg waffles are 2 for $5 which is the cheapest I've come across, no where else beats this price. I keep coming back here because of their great service and the prices are really good. If you're craving for some dessert or even a drink I would highly recommend this place. So far they are closed on Tuesdays and sometimes they are closed for a period of time due to vacations.

For the flavour, I prefer a more eggy taste which would be closer to the ones in HK. The biggest down side about this visit was the batter wasn't mixed very well. I could feel the grains meaning the batter wasn't smooth. Overall, this is still a positive review as I had decent experience from here before.

Great spot for Hong Kong-style egg waffles…read more We tried the salted egg egg waffle and the Hong Kong milk tea. The egg waffle was freshly made and filled with salted egg filling, making it a really good savoury snack. The Hong Kong milk tea was a bit too sweet for me though, so I'd probably ask for less sugar next time.

I got the Rosé Bacon Penne Pasta, which had gochujang in it and it was the perfect level of spice! I've always wanted to try it, and now I'm dying to come back to have this dish again. The only thing I would say is that it's a bit of a small portion for its price, but was still worth it to get.

I would definitely recommend it and would be happy to come back again.

Although this is a busy brunch restaurant, the turnover happens fast, and we have never waited more than 30 minutes for a seat. Starving Artist has a wide array of coffees and teas as well as waffles and 'Bennies. We have tried quite a few of the drinks during our visits, and we have tried many of their signature dishes. The staff are great and always accommodating and very patient when my kids can't make up their minds about what they want to eat or drink. The servers have helped my kids on more than one occasion make up their minds. This is a great place for breakfast, brunch or even late afternoon coffee, and we try to go at least once a month.

Visited around 10:45 a.m. on a Tuesday. The café is tucked beside Shoppers Drug Mart, with plenty…read moreof parking available. You pass through a charming patio to enter, which was shaded nicely thanks to the size of the Shoppers building. Given the recent heatwave, we opted to sit indoors. We were greeted at the door and offered the choice between a two-person table tucked farther inside or a four-person table closer to other diners. We chose the smaller table for a bit more privacy and ease of conversation. Menus were provided right away, followed shortly by tap water. When our server checked in to ask about drinks, we let her know we were fine with just water. Later, when we were ready to order, she came promptly when we called her over. A standout moment: we ordered just one smoothie, and she kindly asked if we were sharing, then offered to split it into two cups without us even asking. A thoughtful and appreciated gesture. The Pineapple Banana Smoothie was a highlight. It was perfectly balanced between sweet and tart, and incredibly refreshing. My sister ordered the Halloumi Benedict. She noted that while the waffles leaned toward a sweeter flavor on their own, the combination of waffle, egg, and halloumi was well-balanced and worked beautifully together. The egg was jammy and spot-on in terms of taste, texture, and presentation. I had the Fully Loaded, which features a potato waffle topped with bacon bits, sour cream, chives, and cheese. It leaned a bit salty, but not overwhelmingly so, still quite enjoyable overall. I loved the potato waffle which has the slightly crispy edges but was soft to bite with a texture that resembled mash potatoes. As someone who isn't usually crazy about waffles, which was such a nice alternative. Each of our mains came with a side salad (lightly dressed and refreshing) and a choice of fruit salad, maple baked beans, or potato salad. We both chose the fruit salad, which was impressively varied with orange, grapefruit, watermelon, blueberry, blackberry, and banana. Note: Payment is cash or debit only.

I ordered their chicken kaarage with mochi waffles. The chicken was fried with a light batter. Crispy on the outside and the meat (chicken thigh) was moist and juicy.

The yuzu sauce was refreshing paired well with chicken.The dish came with a side of salad which helped balance out the heaviness of the fried chicken and mochi. We also ordered their pistachio souflle pancake and it was delectable. It was light, airy and fluffy. The pistachio sauce was creamy, nutty and aromatic without being too sweet. I also liked how it came with fruits on the side. I also ordered their hojicha latte, which was one of the best ones I've had. It was smooth, creamy, and had just the right amount of tea flavor. The milk foam had the perfect velvety texture and it came with a pretty latte art. Overall, I really enjoyed the brunch they offer here. It is a pretty simple cafe, so don't expect it to be all decked out because it's not those instagramable cafes. But the food were solid and it's a great option for a small group brunch as they don't have many tables and they don't have large tables at all (the best is to 4 people or less). Staff is very limited but it could be because we went on a Thursday and it wasn't busy. They have a QR code for you to scan and you can order directly from there and food came fairly quickly shortly after we placed our order. I would definitely return when I'm back in town.

I ordered the Wafu Carbonara after seeing decent reviews on Yelp, with the only critique being that…read morethe dish could be a bit dry. Hoping to get ahead of it, I requested the kitchen make it "more saucy." That was a huge mistake. Instead of actual sauce, it tasted like they literally just dumped water into the dish to thin it out. What arrived was a bland, watery, and completely tasteless mess. It was so flavorless that I had to aggressively add my own salt and pepper just to make it palatable. The photo speaks volumes--it was completely ruined. The service was cold and entirely hands-off. Our waitress took our order and then performed a total disappearing act. She never checked back in on us to see how the food was, and we literally never saw her again for the rest of our meal. The Verdict Between a ruined $22.50 plate of pasta and non-existent service, this place is a hard pass. Will not be returning for brunch.

The marshmallow toast had a warm, crunchy crust and a soft, marshy filling that was really satisfying. The mango shaved ice was packed with lots of ingredients, creating a fruity yet creamy flavor.

Food 3.5/5 Service 3.5/5…read moreAmbience 3.5/5 A busy and popular dessert and snack spot at the First Markham Place. I've been here a few times mostly earlier evenings and it's always busy but we always manage to get a table without waiting long to be seated. We ordered the deep fried peanut butter French toast bites, mango shaved ice, black sesame egg waffle. Our fallback and favourite is the mango shaved ice #1, deep fried peanut butter toast bites #2 and last is the egg waffle. The egg waffle is quite hard and it misses the mark of most egg waffles. I wonder if it becomes hard or has to be cooked harder because of the ice cream topping. I wouldn't order the egg waffle here again. I find that the desserts are reasonably priced compared to other Asian dessert stops in the area. The menu is extensive and has more cold desserts than warm desserts. Service was pretty good considering how busy it was on Friday evening and we were always able to get the attention of a server. Expect that seating is tight on popular evenings.

The sweet and spicy sauce goes great with the creamy quail egg surrounded by a bit of crispy batter. The siu mai was just ok in my opinion and the meat could have used a bit more seasoning. It felt more like a hybrid between a traditional Chinese wonton and siu mai - wonton skin on the outside and looser filling than a traditional siu mai. It was ok, I wouldn't say it's that worth. The service was nice, the employee was helpful in explaining items I was unfamiliar with. From what I can tell, this is a good place if you want to try out some Filipino snacks! They have savoury and dessert items available and I would probably go back and try a couple of more things.

Came here after dinner for some croffle and ice cream. This place was quite busy on a Friday night,…read morethere was about a 15min wait. The hostess took your name and number, waited by the lobby to get called in. The restaurant is bright with tons of seats including patio seatings. Our server was Ayman on his first day and he was truly kind and you can feel customer service when he spoke with you. We ordered a croffle but he brought in a waffle so it was a wrong order. We asked if we can just have the waffle and he got the okay, after the croffle came. The mistake wasn't really his fault since my friend had a thicker accent where croffle and waffle sounds quite the same. I would say the croffle isn't as good as the croffles in Cups which is why I was craving for it for dessert. That's the reason for one star less. Otherwise everything else is great! Pricing is on the higher side by the way but the portion is ginormous. I'll be coming here again after a small appetizer at a restaurant then here for dessert! Rating 4.2/5

We were greeted by the waitress and we ordered the bisco fever Belgian waffle. It took a while for the waitress to come back to take our order, I noticed she is the only worker on the floor and was tending to every table so the last couple of times it was the same thing, everything took longer to get the waiter/waitress' attention. One thing I wish is that there is another worker so that it doesn't take so long to order the dessert or get water. This was my favourite Belgian waffle, it had blondes, biscoff sauce that was nice and warm, biscoff cookie crumble with honey vanilla ice cream. Everything worked well together and tasted amazing. I loved the warm and crispiness of the waffle. It was definitely the star dessert at demetres! It was presented nicely with icing sugar and sauce over the waffles. I would most likely order this waffle again next time!
