At the crossroads of Mile End and Little Italy, Le Butterblume is versatile, just as good for settling into their cozy dining room for a weekend brunch or grabbing something quick at their adjacent grocery.
The food here is thoughtful without being fussy, a reflection of the seasoned talent in the kitchen. Since 2016, Butterblume has been turning out refined comfort food that draws crowds from across the city. Think fresh, seasonal ingredients elevated into dishes that surprise without overwhelming. Take their signature eggplant toast, served with roasted peppers, poached egg, creamy tonnato, and thin slices of coppa. Or the maultaschen ravioli, making even a simple lunchtime stop feel like an adventure.
And then there’s the brunch. The menu takes all those familiar breakfast staples you know and love and cranks them up: The lemon brioche with sour cream and dill is an excellent example, as is the puff pastry with confit salmon, where buttery layers hold a mess of poached egg, creamy goat cheese, and pickled beets together.
