| - One of the best things about my visit to Montreal this summer was dinner at Le Filet. I went with 3 friends, we ordered 2 of each dish to share, and the rest was history. Our waiter gave us fabulous recommendations, whether regarding quantity or which dish to choose when we couldn't decide.
From what I remember, we had and enjoyed:
- oysters (hon shimeji, truffle oil, oyster cream)
- fluke, Japanese plum, wasabi, cucumber
- half lobster, hollandaise, urchin
- grilled octopus, Israeli couscous, Meyer lemon coulis
- a dessert named Eric (no joke)
Most impressive was that the head chef meticulously inspected each dish that left the kitchen.
It was easily one of the best culinary experiences of my life, and I was only disappointed that I couldn't return again without having to fly all the way from Vancouver. And for the price (around $70/person including a bottle of wine), I found it reasonable given that I've spent the same amount for less food and worse quality.
Le Filet, je t'aime!
