Chef Olivier de Montagny is so nice! Talented and friendly what do you want more.
We went at la chronique during montteal en lumiere and were excited as chef Jean lefebvre from Cordeillan-Bages and master sommelier Pierre-Alexis Soulière were invited. But even with those famous characters as guest, it was still the house chefs and house sommelier Jonathan Sitatras who shined during servive.
The evening started with a petoncle, synonym of a perfect start. Next was a flétan with a seaweed trio which was absolutely lovely and very flavorful.
The next plate was my favorite of the evening. A pintage ravioli with foie gras, truffes du périgord and parmesan emulsion. Absolutely delectable and filles with flavors. The emulsion was just divine.
Next was an aged magret with beets and a porto juice. The duck was a little thick but still very well cooked.
And just to end well... A fondant chocolat which we paired with a fantastic and very unique 100 years old tawny porto. Nothing less.
It was overall, a special night in a special place.
