db Bistro Moderne
Skip the chocolate eggs and start your Easter Sunday with a selection of Viennoiserie ($12)—a tray of French pastries served with butter and jam. To follow, brunch staples with a French twist: duck poutine lyonnaise ($16), slow-baked halibut ($32), or lobster eggs Florentine ($20). A $38 three-course menu is also available.

Provence Marinaside
A nice selection of omelets and benedicts ($13-$18) is sure to delight but the real treat is the French toast ($11). Made from soft baguette and served with cinnamon sugar, maple syrup and whipped cream, it puts all other imitators to shame.
