Cora (Coquitlam)

I had heard some good things about Cora's so I wanted to try it out. Cora is located in Coquitlam 3025 Lougheed Highway. There's also one in White Rock, Richmond and 2 other in Kelowna and Kamloops.
Got here at about 10:45am for brunch on a Friday. The restaurant was a good size with lots of bright colors like yellows and baby blues. It has the same vibe as DeDutch. We were seated promptly and took a look at the menu which was also very appealing to the eyes with many pictures which is nice to get an idea of what you might be ordering.
It took both Bryan and I a little longer than usual because everything looked so good, it was hard to choose just one!
Finally I decided to go with Buckwheat Blessing. Our orders also arrived 10 minutes after ordering, not too long of a wait.
3 sausages wrapped in buckwheat crepes and topped with cheese (cant remember which kind) and served with a very beautiful arrangement of fruits! My plate had cantaloupe, apples, strawberries, mangoes, pineapple, kiwi, orange, grapes, banana and watermelon. Fresh and healthy! Love it! 10 stars!

Bryan decided to order "Eggs Ben & Dictine" (cute play on words there :))
Two poached eggs on an English muffin covered with Hollandaise sauce, served with roasted potatoes and fresh fruit. Very delicious as well!! He chose the asparagus and swiss cheese option plus ham. It was sooooooo yummy. Also 10 Stars! Just plain goodness :)

Pouty face cuz he doesn't want a photo, he wants to dig in and eat!! I don't blame him! :)

Also noticed the cute sunshine logo on their napkins, couldn't help taking a picture of that too :)

Cora's is a great place for a healthy breakfast/lunch and also a filling one! I wasn't hungry again until about 6:30p without any snacking. The prices are average or slightly above. Our two plates with just water to drink totalled just a little over $31 including tax but not tip.
Regardless, we will definitely be back soon!
Overall, 9.5 out of 10 rating!

Happy Eating, xoxo,
Dina & Bryan
