| - Being conveniently located in the InterContinental Montréal definitely helped my friend and I's decision to have dinner here. Just a short elevator ride from our room and the waiter took us to a table by the window where we could watch the sunset.
The waiter informed us of the specials after we had a brief look at the menus (paper version and tablet version). The seafood risotto he told us of sounded delectable so we went with that and crab cakes. My friend thought that the risotto could be creamier and cheesier but I thought that it was just right. Any more cheese or cream would've made it too heavy for me and I would not have finished it. There was a large clam, piece of lobster, 2 large shrimp/prawns, small muscles in the risotto.
I thought that prices weren't that high considering it's a restaurant in a high end hotel and the service was wonderful.
Breakfast:
The thing that impressed me most about breakfast was the fact that there was smoked salmon. I don't think I've seen this offered during breakfast at any other hotel I've stayed at before. There was the usual suspects of pastries, sliced bread, baguette, sliced meat, eggs, pancakes (cut in half in case you don't want a full one), bacon, sausages, fruit, cereal, yogurt, oatmeal, and, what is sometimes offered, an omelette station.
