I had a fabulously leisurely 2.5 hour dinner here by my lonesome. During my short stay in Montreal, I searched Yelp for a reasonably priced authentic French bistro to satisfy my craving for all things indulgently French. Les Deux Gamins fit the description and I quickly made a reservation. I was greeted with lots of smiles and am glad I made a reservation because the bistro filled up quickly. The servers were very sweet and let me take my time deciding what to get. I started with the French onion soup due to the Yelp raves. I've decided that it's just not for me. Nothing against the soup here, I've just realized that I can't handle such large proportions of cheese. :'(. This is how I felt about poutine too...anyway, the soup was great for dipping the baquette slices :). The duck confit with scalloped potatoes fried in duck fat wins cheat meal of the year. It was too delicious for its own good! I also had a fillete de vin rouge, which was great. The creme brulee was too dense for my taste...I prefer smoothier and more delicately textured. There are also street musicians who play right across the restaurant so you get some lovely live entertainment while you relax on the patio. I would definitely come back next time I'm in town to have a patio dinner and try the salmon tartar and the famous mac n' cheese.
