  • Location: St-Sauveur village. There's street parking but only on one side (restaurant). The place: This actually used to be a house that was converted into a restaurant and thus, the place is very small. I've never had issues getting a table here, but I tend to go at very random hours during the day. I would imagine that a reservation is necessary on weekend evenings. Don't expect anything fancy - the decor is as basic as it gets, but the place is clean. Service: Great - our waitress was super friendly and chatty. Food: I always, always go for the Tonkinese soup. ALWAYS. That's how much I love it. The broth is incredibly flavourful and comprised of rice noodles, beef or chicken and Lemongrass. Don't get me started on how much I love Lemongrass. Anyway, this soup is served in a big old bowl and intended to be a meal, so you can easily fill up on this alone and carry about your day, walking and shopping in the area. It's so damn good. Now, since I stopped by on Good Friday, and the rule on Good Friday is to avoid meat, I made a bold move - I chose the crispy noodles with shrimp. We won't talk about how I inadvertently stared down the guy at the next table, who was clearly enjoying MY soup. Anyway, the noodles were OK; since the veggies and five shrimp (yes, I counted) didn't evenly cover the noodles, there was a section of the plate where they remained crispy. The veggies were crunchy and tasty and I really couldn't say with any accuracy whether or not they were frozen. The shrimp were good but tasted a bit watery - they were properly cooked and served with the tail on. Overall, I enjoyed the dish but it wasn't the best I've had. Still, very decent. One thing to point out - I am very sensitive to stuff like MSG. Judging by how good I felt when I left the place, I'm going to say they don't use any but if they do, it's minimal. Don't quote me on this because I forgot to ask them. Eat at your own risk. I got the lunch special which included, soup (a mini Tonkinese minus the meat! YAY!), a main and a pot of Jasmine tea. The whole thing cost me $13 +tax. Note that they may not offer lunch deals on weekends. The trend around these parts is to increase prices on weekends.
