| - exceptional ingredients, tons of creativity and restraint, warm and easy-going service
beautiful, memorable food
sat at the bar, got to check out action in the open kitchen.
-yellow tomato soup with crab, melon, aromatic olive oil- balanced, elegant
-fried zucchini blossoms filled with duck ragout and goat cheese- decadent, a curious mix of Italy and Montreal. loved the crisp tender baby squash still attached to the flower.
-blue fin tuna belly, grilled with red wine sauce, strawberries, fennel, crisp mushrooms- loved this ode to the mineral blood of the fish. gorgeous
-rhubarb sorbet, rhubarb soup, pickled rhubarb, butter cookies, chantilly creme- not too sweet, so refreshing, elegantly plated
this was my first trip to montreal and I felt welcomed with this meal, lots of talent in the Montreal food scene, and it seems this is the hub.
