Eatery: Le Comptoir – Imaginative food

LeComptoir

I was so excited to eat here after realizing how new and hot this place was. Little did I know that I would have a "first" here. Yes. I ate pig's heart at Le Comptoir Charcuteries et Vins. When my friend ordered the dish, I just skimmed the description; read roasted squash and figured it was a vegetarian dish. Truth is this dish was a masterpiece, with a medley of flavors and … [Read more...]

Eatery M:brgr – Decadent and Tasty. Not Just a Burger Joint

MbrgrSteakSalad

I know what you’re thinking: “Oh how boring, she’s gonna write about burgers from a fancy burger joint”. And you would be partially right. Partially, because I don’t really do burgers, especially not at M:Brgr. Not because they aren’t decadent and tasty (and you can dress it up with any topping imaginable) but because this place has a few menu items I bet you didn’t even know … [Read more...]

Eatery: Plateau’s Greasy Spoon

Restaurant Greasy Spoon Plateau Montreal

I find it so intriguing how a place can get such mixed reviews, guess I'm lucky because I have never been disappointed at Greasy Spoon. It has all the qualities a hot spot needs: great vibe, rustic decor, tasteful spin on comfort food and of course, its welcoming terrace. LOVE the inside of this joint, with its impressively long wooden bar, comfortable leather upholstered chairs and random … [Read more...]

Eatery: Unique Izakaya Dinning Experience at Kazu

kazu-shrimpburger_2

If you’re sitting there thinking to yourself “What’s a Kazu?”, then where have you been?!! Kazu is not a what, but a who. He is a chef; a culinary genius who has brought to Montreal a totally unique Izakaya dinning experience, both for ambiance and taste. When you walk in (usually after a 10-15 min wait…well worth it!), you notice that the only real decor on the wall are the menus, … [Read more...]

The MREBlog Welcomes Sonia and her Montreal Food Reviews

Sonia Samji

Did you know that in Montreal we have more restaurants per capita than most North American cities? With the only exception of New York. At one point, I started a restaurants reviews section called Eatery. In all honesty, as much as I wanted to continue to write about food, my attention got always re-directed to Real Estate Advice. So that was it for the restaurant posts. Lucky me, I … [Read more...]

Eatery: Titanic Cafe in Old Montreal

p_2048_1536_AA75BF6E-8632-40FD-9C96-A82F0219000D.jpeg

Definitely the perfect place if you’re looking to grab a quick lunch, just before the lunch-rush hour. You’ve probably won’t find Titanic unless someone points it out to you. Its not located in a major street in Old Montreal, but it is well known by the locals as a Gourmet Sandwich place. Titanic Cafe, hidden away in the semi-basement, has by far the tastiest antipasto plate I’ve had ever … [Read more...]

Eatery: Resident Diner in Old Montreal

Resident - Restaurant Old Montreal

Right in the corner of Notre Dame and St Denis (or Bonsecours since it's on the south side), you will find Resident Restaurant; a big and spacious room with high ceiling, elegant yet casual minimalist decor. The type of cooking they offer is a mix of comfort food with a twits of gourmet. I’ve had the chance to eat there a few times (and try different dishes), and I’ve even met clients for … [Read more...]
