| - APDC is a contemporary restaurant in the Mont Royal neighborhood serving up platters of pigs head, bone marrow, foie gras, duck in a can, the menu goes on and on. A foodie-meat-lovers' dream so to speak. We sat at the bar because its easier to reserve and we wanted to see the chefs in action. It's pretty amazing that there are like 4 chefs in such a small space serving up most of the dishes that keep this restaurant going. It was incredible to watch, so I would recommend it. We went a little overboard ordering lots of dishes, way more than we could eat ourselves, but we wanted to multiple things on the menu.
To start, we had:
Tuna tartare (light, refreshing, succulent, delicious, expertly prepared!)
Bone Marrow
Blue cheese, apple, and endive salad (I LOVED this dish. So glad I ordered it; it was different from any salad I've ever had and SO good)
APDC Beer
Entrees:
Lobster roll with foie gras
PDC's Melting Pot paired with the by the glass Cote de Rhone-- this was the dish I ordered; it was a cross section of meats such as blood sausage, regular sausage, pork chop, and pork belly served on a bed of mashed potatoes in a stew with carrots and roasted potatoes in a mini dutch oven. i would recommend this if you want to try a bunch of different meats. It is very filling though; so if you order appetizers you could probably split it). The glass Cote de Rhone was excellent, HIGHLY recommend that.
For dessert -- the pecan pie with ice cream. Pecan pie was good, but not the best I've had; hey I'm from the south...sort of. On my way out I saw the pot de creme and wished I had gotten that, and I will next time. But the ice cream was delicious and rich and creamy, so def. recommend that.
Overall, a must try while in Montreal. Will return for sure!
