Look for a Ciabatta French Toast, poached eggs on crabcakes, and The Sicilian (spicy Italian sausage with a fried egg on beans, with melty cheese, tomatoes, and arugula) and more, as well as fun bevvies, like a sweet DIY Mimosa set that comes with a bottle of Prosecco and a flight of fresh juices. The resto is also pouring their take on a Canadian classic, their Moda Caesar, and a sweet Brunch Affogato. Brunch at Cibo is served weekends from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is available for dine-in only.
