It was a Monday at like 11am after I presume "their morning rush". I ordered an iced matcha with oat milk and needless to say I did enjoy it a lot. The lid did break twice lol So they've had to give me three ( I feel for the price they charge the cups should be better quality). But the staff were nice and polite and the place had a few seats not many. The match latte was $8 with the extra charge if oat milk I assume. So that's definitely the most I paid for matcha. But definitely don't mind it here and there.

It was very popular on a Sunday morning!

In quite the unassuming spot, l'imprimerie is the hole in the wall everyone needs in a world inundated with viral baked goods. Great execution, wonderful service.

We started with a cocktail made with mint, ginger, vodka, and beetroot juice. The woman working there told us they make their own juice fresh every day, and you could really taste the difference. It tasted as good as it looked! For starters, we ordered the choila roti and the Buffalo momos. Both were incredible - the flavors and presentation were amazing. The sauce over the momos was so flavorful and colorful, and the jerk chicken in the roti was perfectly seasoned. For our entree, we split the poleko lamb, which arrived on a sizzling plate and was packed with such vibrant, delicious flavors. I can't wait to go back and try more of the menu. Everything was beautiful, creative, flavorful, and clearly made with a lot of care!

My friend and I decided to share everything. We ordered: GARLIC NAAN 5/5 These garlic naans were probably the best we've both tried. As soon as we took a bite, we are both impressed. And to think that we would have missed out if our server didn't suggest it... These particular naans are made different from the traditional Iones. They are coated with buttery goodness and are super thin. The hummus on the side was also a very good pairing. I would recommend this app. PORK JHOL MOMO 5/5 These pork momos were also super delicious! Comparing it to the ones I've had at another restaurant, there is no overpowering cilantro in this one! The momo itself was very juicy. The flavor of the inside and the soup was delicious. Another must-get! CHICKEN KHAJA PLATTER 4/5 My friend and I were probably the least impressed with this one. A lot of the dish includes a lot of dry ingredients like popped rice & soybean seeds. They also used cold meats and veggies. It was great to try each portion of the platter, but wasn't our personal favorites of our visit here. Overall, we had a delicious lunch. We throughly enjoyed our experience here and would definitely recommend this local spot. I did think it was worth the trip over.
