Brazen

📍Coordinates: Banff, Canada

My family says this restaurant serves the best burgers they've ever had 🍔. Banff is a tourist area, so prices aren't cheap. Dining at a restaurant here starts at around 500 to 600 NTD per person, but the quality is very good. Even randomly chosen restaurants have high ratings, and every dining experience has been great during our stay here!

This restaurant, Brazen, was also chosen randomly. The decor is elegant and beautiful, and during this meal for four, we ordered:

• Avocado Toast (CAD22)
  Whole wheat toast topped with half an avocado 🥑, a soft-boiled egg, and lettuce—this is one of my favorite breakfast choices. After all, avocado is really delicious! It blends with any food to create a creamy and rich texture; it's a perfect match with the soft-boiled egg yolk! The meal comes with crispy roasted potatoes 🥔, which are also very tasty. The small potatoes have a chewy texture different from the larger potato chunks. I finished them all because they were so good! If you want a healthier option, I highly recommend this 👍.

• Mount Royal with Cheese (CAD26)
  This is a huge burger with a 6oz Angus beef patty and bacon 🥓, and it's what my family couldn't stop praising. The beef is large and juicy, with melted smoked cheese and chips—it's simply indulgent 🤤. It also comes with crispy, chewy small roasted potatoes. If you want a happy and guilty pleasure, I highly recommend this 👍.

• Steak Sandwich (CAD26)
  The bread for this sandwich is the chewy kind, paired with a 5oz Angus steak. It's the same Angus beef, but this one feels more like a steak than a juicy burger patty. It's cooked medium-rare, very tender and tasty. The onion rings inside are fried in a unique way, with a very thin crispy fried coating, adding a different texture when eaten with the steak. I highly recommend this dish as well.

• Latte (CAD5.5)
  The latte came with a plate full of sugar packets, which made me laugh. The foam on top was dense and creamy, and the coffee itself was quite bitter, which explains all the sugar packets 😅. After adding one sugar packet, it was smoother and quite good—worth ordering 👍.

Overall, everyone was very satisfied with the meal. Each of the three different breakfasts had its own unique features, and it was clear that a lot of effort went into the food preparation. The waiter was also very enthusiastic, frequently checking in on our dining experience. The only downside was that the check-ins were a bit too frequent, which made me feel a little interrupted 😂. Other than that, everything was great!
