Le Twist
After seeing that Café Diana closed its doors on rue Montcalm in Hull, I was wondering if some establishment nearby would take its place. Sure enough, one of my favourite restaurants in the area has taken up to the task with style.
Le Twist at 88 rue Montacalm (map) started to do weekend breakfasts in late November and I’ve been there three times since. They are famous around here for their yummy burgers and I was eager to see how they would do with breakfast.
I found out about Le Twist doing breakfasts after I saw a small flyer on my windshield after doing some groceries at the IGA in town a few weeks ago. I was pretty pumped up about checking it out. I headed out on foot the Saturday after that and stopped into a local dep (see the first urban dictionary entry on what a “dep” is here) to pick up a Journal de Montreal. Once there, I found it almost empty and took a spot near a window so I could get good pictures.
As you can tell from above, I ordered the eggs Benedict.. not shown is the side order of toast for the mopping up exercise after eating this kinda dish.
Most of their breakfasts come with a side of salad which is refreshing change from what I’m used to. Not sure if I like it, but it is different.
On my next visit I forgot my camera. I kicked myself. Ouch. Le Twist was still pretty empty, but a bit busier that time..
The pic above is from last weekend. It’s a Croissant croque - madame and it was yummy!

Salad with breakfast…….very strange. But everything else looks very good!
