  • I am seriously considering starting a petition to get these guys to open up in NYC. HOW does someone make food taste so good in a such a simple way that one actually smiles upon chewing? Finding this place was a miracle in itself. We were lost on Boulevard Saint Laurent, cell-service-less in a foreign country and thus without the guide of Yelp. We just bixi-biked (their version of Citibikes) through nearly the entire city, and we were hungry. We wandered into this cozy joint with bizarre (probably local) artwork, tired and just wanting to be fed. I usually stick to vegetarian meals when I eat any kind of Turkish, Middle Eastern, Lebanese, or Persian food. In general, unless its simmering in a sauce or stew, I find the kebabs and koftas to be too dry. The meat here is perfectly seasoned, juicy, flavors retained and released upon first bite. It was hard to say whether the beef or the chicken was better, both were so good but different. But I must sing the praises of this ridiculously delicious quinoa dish they served. I LOVE quinoa, and I've had it in many forms. This was by far the tastiest. The quinoa is cooked and mixed with roasted sunflower seeds, peas, sesame oil, and soy sauce. The sunflower seeds and sesame oil really give it a nutty toasted flavor, and the texture of the quinoa is broken up by the peas throughout each bite. I could have had a bowl of this for dinner and been happy. The other side dishes were all wonderfully cooked too - a lot of rich flavors in the roasted vegetable side dish, and even the salad was great. The guy who mans the grill is cool, he quietly appreciates it when people enjoy his food. I did try to have a serious talk with him about opening in NY, as we are saturated with Middle Eastern places but lack consistent quality in a casual, almost fast food setting that is also creative. He smiled but sadly remained unconvinced. So I had to have my fill. On a 4 day trip we ate here twice. The first by happenstance, the second out of sheer determination. If you're a New Yorker visiting Montreal, please speak to him about coming to NY.
