About one week ago, I celebrated my 21st birthday in Montreal. I booked reservations in advance for 10 pm because I wanted the tatami table. My flight from Los Angeles was delayed for a bit and I didn't check into the Marriot until 9:30 pm! Luckily, the restaurant is located right next to my hotel. Score.
Ordinarily, I would never, and I mean NEVER, go to a restaurant like this, but in light of my 21st birthday and first night in Montreal, I splurged...big time.
The Bill:
1. Mango Daiquiri for $8.00 CAD
2. Ebi Tempura $9.00 CAD
3. Large scallops and green salad with Mikasa sauce $18.00 CAD
4. Ring of Fire Roll $13.00 CAD
5. Nirvana Roll $16.00 CAD
Conclusion: Overly pretentious, but so delicious. Beautiful presentation, but not enough to fill my tummy.
