<p>Equal Parts Hospitality has various diamonds in its crowns like Aberdeen Tavern, <a href="https://fourcolumnsofabalancedlife.com/the-diplomat/">Diplomat</a>, and The French.</p>
<p>I am heading to experience the amazing hospitality, impeccable service, and 5-star cleanliness at The French.</p>
<p>We are greeted by a friendly host who seats us facing the street. The restaurant is pristine and beautiful, and art meets hospitality.</p>

<p>The Espresso Martini is delicious, the Cappuccino is outstanding, and the orange juice is refreshing.</p>
<p>The Brunch at French comes with two courses at $30 per person. The menu is extensive and offers a wide range of dishes.</p>
<p>Debbie orders the Savoury Breakfast Turnover, and I order the French Burger.</p>

<p>The burger is ensconced in an amazing onion bun with caramelized onion-fig jam, bacon, Brie, Maple-Dijon Aioli along with crispy potatoes. The combination is excellent and the potatoes are on another level; light, crispy and tasty.</p>
<p>Season garnishes in a puff pastry makes the turnover perfect for brunch.</p>
<p>One of our guest has the Vanilla &amp; Honey Yogurt Parfait and another orders the Foie Gras &amp; Chicken Liver Parfait for starters.</p>

<p>Both are delicious and have the right balance.</p>
<p>Our guest orders a warm scone to share with the table. It is warm moist, delicious, and one of the best scones I have had in my life.</p>

<p>Another guest has the Savoury and Aaron has the Croque Monsieur.</p>
<p>The sourdough, ham, Emmental, and Mornay make a play on the Croque Monsieur. Outstanding.</p>

<p>Under Chris Pyatt&#8217;s guidance, the food is delicious. Kate-Lyn King leads the service brigade and it is impeccable.</p>
<p>The French is the best place in Hamilton for Brunch.</p>
