| - We thought that coming to a city the size of Montreal would offer many whole food plant options. Unlike New York, Chicago or San Francisco, Montreal had little to offer. The one huge exception, that we simply stumbled upon, is Crudessence.
The food offerings were traditional raw with some interesting twists. The Om burger was amazing. We also enjoyed the sushi, crepes, Caesar salad, wrap and "cheesecake", each bite more delectable than good reason would come to expect. It was so delicious that we ate here two evenings and the discovery lunch on our way to the Museum of Fine Art.
The staff was exceptionally attentive and knowledgeable. When we asked a particularly difficult question about preparation, the chef was out in a flash to explain. That is service.
The garden location was surprisingly bright and cheery. The restaurant focuses on clean lines in keeping with the natural food.
All in all, a fabulous experience in a sea of fast food and, worse yet, fast vegetarian food.
We also enjoyed some organic wine
