| - While on our vacation I finally pried my duaghter away from fast food long enough to get some Chinese food. Montreal's Chinatown is compact but full of some really good places. There are dozens of options on these streets but she liked the menu here. It was in Chinese, French, & English. She read the options and decided that this was the place for her.
The waitstaff all seem to be multilingual. That helped. My daughter was feeling a bit sad about her lack of French, even though most people will switch into English when they realize you don't understand.
First we split an order of Shallot Pancakes, and they were quite tasty. I ordered salt & pepper squid. It had a nice bite to it, nice and hot in places, and really well seasoned. I was afraid I'd swell up after that but no, didn't happen, so they are on point with that.
My daughter ordered Crispy Chicken, which tasted fresh but it definitely wasn't an adventurous choice. She liked it and they gave her plenty. She wound up bringing half of it back to the hotel and eating it the next day.
No, we didn't order dumplings. Next time. Good, clean, quick choice for lunch.
