Le Chien Fumant is a bit out the of the way, reservations are a serious consideration given its teensy tiny size, and it is a tad pricey considering brunch for two cost close to $50 without any of their signature cocktails added to the bill and before a tip was added in, but these are just trivial worries when you factor in the flavors, freshness, quality, and the uniqueness of the dishes offered here.\n\nEverything is homemade, from the English muffins used in their lobster Florentine Benedict, to the cured meats and sausages they serve up during the day. Who does that anymore? \n\nThe food offerings are as unconventional as this restaurant's decor that welcomes you with a giant poster of the 1957 B-movie classic \"Attack of the Crab Monsters\" at the front door, features Wild Wild West flourishes straight out of a Frontier Town bar, and places 8\" religious candles on each table in place of the typical tea lights one might find elsewhere. \n\nTheir ever-changing yet playful menu was the impetus for this first visit. I've checked out their website often over the last few months, just to see what was on the menu after hearing about this place, and have been teased with dishes like rabbit done gumbo style and pork belly served up as a doner kebab.   \n\nTheir brunch menu this past weekend was no less eclectic. While you could order some \"basics\" like ham and pineapple, or eggs served with homemade country sausage and biscuits (Biscuits? Real Southern-style biscuits in Quebec?), I indulged in two quivering chunks of boudin (blood sausage) served atop an apple waffle that was accompanied by a fris\u00e9e salad with lardons and two perfectly poached eggs. \n\nWorth the trip and spending a good 45 minutes on public transportation and a 15 minute walk under dark, ready-to-burst, cloudy skies to get there? Oh yes, yes, yes.\n\nWorth making a reservation even though a credit card was needed to secure it? Fine by me and perfectly understandable given its limited seating.\n\nWorth the cost? Hell yes, especially when you factor in their choice ingredients and how they handle them, the attentive service, and the fact I've only seen breakfast and brunch items this creative in Las Vegas. \n\nWorth a return visit? Already booked.
