| - Finally, a Montreal restaurant that I'll actually willingly return to!
I've been so disappointed by the Montreal restaurant scene, so I was pleasantly surprised by this place. The borsch soup, though wasn't so good. In fact, it was just a red, salty broth. I was expecting something with texture.
I ordered the debutant menu which featured a sampling of perogies, chopped sausage with sauerkraut, a deep-fried thing sorta like an egg roll with beef inside, and a potato pancake (latke?). Very nice. I just wish there was more sausage!
The dessert (apple strudel) was just okay and not at all like the strudels I've had elsewhere. A strudel should have layers, no? This one was more like an apple crumble - a soggy one at that. And the taste was nothing special. Next time, I'll just order a la carte and get a main dish without entree or dessert.
In terms of value, I think it's overpriced for what you get, though. But since this is one of the few Montreal restaurants where I wasn't disappointed, I'll give this place 3 stars.
