| - So many good things to say about this cafe. I have been here twice in the same trip while visiting Montreal and am already missing their delicious sandwiches, coffee, and best of all, petit fours. Nocochi has the BEST macarons I have had outside of France. They were perfect in every way- smooth, slight crunch outside, soft middle, and velvety fillings. Pate de fruit was also excellent. I had the raspberry, lemon, and currant. All tasted great. There was an interesting chick pea chocolate cookie with a tender crumb, a hint of chocolate flavor, and melt in the mouth texture that is a must try.
For lunch the three cheese baguette (chevre, emmental, mozzarella) with tomatoes, black olive tapenade and turkey did not disappoint. Also, the Nocochi chicken sandwich was very good and flavorful.
Overall, we had a great eating experience and enjoyed tasting the many petit fours after lunch. The only minus was the slow service. That's not to say service was bad, it wasn't, just a bit on the slow side. I wish there were more places like this one where attention to detail, fresh flavors, high quality ingredients, and pride in craftsmanship is the focus. I can't wait to return!
