If you're in for some serious blown away dining experience... Kazu is the place. Forget about going to a fancy place for a nice long dinner. This place is... Come, eat and go (because there is a line of people outside waiting). But let me tell you... IT IS WORTH IT.
This was my third time and everytime I get surprised with the freshness ans quality of their plates.
Luckily me and my girlfriend got there early before they even open and got in line for about 10 minutes.
So... The thing is that if it is your first time you might think that they are pushing you to order and get the hell out. In some sort of way they are... But is because they want everyone to get a chance to try them.
Ok ok... Enough chit chat! Getting into the food.
As appetizers we ordered the beef carpaccion with a fresh salad and the egg plant dip (wich is my favorite). The texture and combination of flavors in this dip is to die for.
For the main meal I ordered the beef kalbi plate which are barbequed beef short ribs with their special sauce served with rice and salad. (Dont imagine a thick rib... This is a thin rib with lots of flavor). My girlfriend ordered the lobster wich is not on the menu but you will find that there are some items that you can order from the wall. This dish we were licking the plate as it was amazing. It came with a smashed potatoes that had a bit of their kazu sauce that gave it a completly different taste as from what we usually get when ordering some smashed potatoes.
If ever in downtown montreal and you see people lining up to a small place in St. Catherine... That is KAZU!
