Our first dinner in Montreal and it has set the bar for Montreal restaurants quite high! We ordered their daily special appetizer which was seared scallops and it was done just right! The sauce was like a hollandaise sauce and very buttery.
The four of us ordered the rotisserie for two which was roasted whole branzino with olives, pistachio and dill. I have never had such a nice aromatic yet soft roast fish before! It was delicious! The meat was soft and the pistachio with pickled olive slices give it a very nice balance to the soft roasted meat! It has a nice Mediterranean slant and the lime gave it a very light aftertaste!!
The dish came with roasted veggies and the veggies were so crispy. The veggies sat on a bed of bell pepper and millet puree and the presentation was wonderful!!
A meal cannot be complete with desserts! We ordered four desserts including the recommended Felicita! The lemon tart was very light and I find that mascarpone a bit too overpowering. The almond cake was okay and the chestnut ice cream tasted soooooo good! That alone can be a standalone offering! Felicita was the best! A chocolate cake with a nice crispy base, the mousse was not too sweet and one could tell the ice cream is homemade! Really really tasty!! The last dish is Tiramisu. Coffee was too strong and so was the chocolate. It almost tasted sour!
Server was courteous and professional! Luv this place! Will come back for aure!!
