I have to admit, while we were there, some visitors from the USA were surprised by the dryness of the rolls, but they are authentic cinnamon buns made of bread, not filled with syrup and covered in a thick layer of icing. I would have definitely ordered some if I could! These buns were exactly what you would expect: a golden brown sugar bottom, a perfect cinnamon, season, and walnut filling, and a delicious layer of icing and walnuts on top. For those who don't enjoy the bread part as much, they could always add butter and jam for an extra sugary kick with each bite. Everyone has their own preferences and just because the rolls weren't overflowing with sugar doesn't mean they were bad. The soup was also very tasty and had a homemade feel to it. I wish I had taken photos to capture the moment. Some people may complain about the prices, but I am more than happy to pay a little extra for the convenience of not having to pack a lunch when visiting this relatively remote cafe in the middle of nowhere. I have been a patron of this cafe for many years, having lived nearby from 1994-1997 and 2003-2008, and have continued to visit many times since.

It sign says the best buns in the Yukon . Very simple small spot. The two of us ordered a...bowl of vegetable soup each. We assumed it would be homemade as the place had that kind of feel. We were served boiled water with veggies in it. Campbell 's vegetable soup was a gourmet treat compared with this. Absolutely awful. I also ordered a cup of coffee that was the worst I 've ever tasted. Had 2 sips and gave up. For this meal (2 soups and a coffee) we were charged $20. I wouldn 't have minded the price if the soup was truly homemade, but this stuff was appalling. Don 't eat here, try the place that all the tour buses go to that 's down the road. It couldn 't be any worse!!!
