The sun is rising & there are a sprinkling of us tourists roaming around Quebec City ahead of the crowds. This was the first cafe I saw opened this early so I popped in. I had the Croissant Smith & a grand mochaccino. The staffer was bi-lingual so I asked in English if she could warm up the sandwich. Obvi something was lost in translation as the top of the croissant was barely warm to the touch with the ham & cheese still chilled. Oh well, it's food & it's edible. I sat outdoors to feel the sunrise to watch others walk through this historic part of Old Quebec known as Place Royale. The area was founded in 1608 & has a wonderful mix of buildings & stone street with French & British influences. What a lovely start to the day.

Un café de type standard à Québec . Rien d'extraordinaire. Il faudrait revoir la propreté des tables.

Pratique pour le petit déjeuner. Petite terrasse dans une cours, agréable. Il y avait la queue mais le service est rapide. Du choix (sucré & salé) & de bonnes choses!
