  • Deliciousness. I've been twice. The first time, I started with the bone marrow & parsley salad. It was textbook perfect. The bone had been sliced in half lengthwise and grilled until everything was cooked, but not to the point that the fat has all melted and disappeared. The parsley salad cut the richness of the plate beautifully. After being so bad, I had to be good: had their grilled Pacific sardines with salad. Another dish that was done beautifully! The bones were nice and crispy and I ate them. Ate the cheeks off the head, but I confess, I didn't eat the whole head. Good salad accompanied the sardines. Finished off, that first night, by deciding I needed some carbohydrates, so I ordered the duck fat frites. Yes, I'll be having those again, but I'm going to have to ration myself and only have them after I've either walked 10km or biked 30km. Very delicious. Second time was tonight, a Thursday night. I got there before 7pm, and there was still lots of seating. Chose a Laily Vidal and a half-dozen oysters (Malpeques). The oysters were fresh and lovely and perfectly shucked -- no shell bits! Hooray. Some places make a big deal out of having a bazillion sauces for their oysters. These were served in simplicity: a couple of slices of lemon, some freshly grated horseradish, and a bottle of Tabasco if one wants some heat. Great buy: 6 for $13.00 Following that, I switched to Laily Cabernet/Merlot and had the terrine plate. Tonight it was a foie gras terrine -- I thought it tasted like apple, so I had the waiter enquire, and no, it wasn't calvados, it was Armagnac, so the sweet fruit flavour was grapes. Was accompanied by a nice fresh roll, marinated olives (nicoise, green, and some salt-cured) some house-preserved pickles (English pickled onions, pickled carrot) and a nice pile of shaved black Chevre from Quebec. They weren't sure where in Quebec the Chevre was from, but when I Google it, looks like it's this one: http://www.chasingthecheese.com/noir.htm . Place was almost full by the time I left at 8pm, and the sound volume (and music) were getting loud. Lighting is dark: I was reading "Le Ventre de Paris" on my iPod, and felt like I was in a French bistro lit by a few candles. Atmospherically it worked :-) I'll be back, again and again. The menu switches, and there are always new things to try.
