| - Just twenty minutes outside of downtown Montreal, you will find LTB, an urban chic hole-in-a-wall upscale - yet humbly unpretentious sophisticated restaurant - in a subtle and otherwise very ordinary strip mall in Boucherville. People drive from far to eat here and it's not unusual to be sitting in the company of sports and entertainment industry professionals and personalities.
The food is a fusion French and Moroccan; with a local flare. All ingredients are organic and locally sourced.
Our lunch started with a organic local greens mesclun salad and Bastilla - a Morocan baked filo dough with minced beef, cinnamon, nuts, powdered sugar and orange pesto base sauce; this dish is an orgasm on a plate, a definite must try!
The Bavette de boeuf which is a fancy French way of naming a beef flank steak was exceptionally tender and cooked to perfection, served with organic asparagus, roasted onions green beans and potatoe Au jus.
Our waiter insisted that we try a the house's signature secret dish that is not on the menu: Wild salmon filet baked inside an orange infused dinner filo pastry with Mandarin and pumpkin spread: My tastebuds were on cloud nine #FoodPorn at its best!!!
We ordered the Morrocan Orange infused peppermint tea and, to our surprise, it was an experience seeing it prepared right in front of our eyes: a ton of fresh peppermint leaves and spices in boiling water served in a traditional and artsy Moroccan Kettle and glasses. The mini sweet baklava and biscotti nut bites accompaniment were a nice touch.
No wonder people drive from far to experience LTB's exceptional food and hospitality, definitely true to all the hype! #NewRavingFan #FoodPorn
