| - Stumbled upon this place while walking around Old Montreal, and after speaking with the charming host, I decided that I HAD to eat there. There are 2 seating areas: garden-like area in the back and a patio-area in the front (perfect for people watching in the Jacques-Cartier square area!).
Service was so friendly and prompt, and the food was delicious. I also really appreciate how they have non-alcoholic cocktails - after a long weekend of imbibing, this was exactly what I wanted and needed!
We tried:
-pate chinois au canard: a delicious shepherd's pie of duck, mashed potatoes, corn and cheese! And what a huge serving, as well.
-cannelinois au four maison: 4 baked cannolis
I wish we had saved some room for the desserts and crepes, but there's always next time! As we left, the host and owner (I'm guessing?) told us that they are only open during the late spring-early fall, so come here while you can!
3.5 stars for the food, but 5 stars for the ambiance and environment...and friendly host :) Worth coming here for the experience of sitting on their outdoor terrace and listening to the wonderful jazz music they have!
