Being Québecois I always have a soft spot for Cuisine du Terroire and without a doubt, Le Pied de Cochon is its Mecca. Martin Picard, the owner and chef of PDC has a penchant for my number favorite food stuff of all time: Foie Gras. His menu is…More »
I was invited to a restaurant for the holidays, having zero knowledge of it prior to setting foot inside. I had heard some murmurs of it but nothing solid. Chez L'Épicier (The Grocery Store in French) looks like a very upscale grocery store with…More »
An episode of The Simpsons once accused the British of being food-boilers which may have been accurate at some period in time. I even have childhood memories of complaints about British fare being crud and tasteless. But beware there's been some…More »
Les Menus Plaisirs offers fine cuisine made with regional products. Mmm yeah, if you call ostrich regional to Quebec. I guess they make some poetic license available to their menu. But trust me; this won't matter to you, the foodie.

Café Via Crescent is my go-to spot for sublime, fresh, taste explosive and healthy Italian food. Don't look for baked ziti here or 20 different pizzas; this isn't what this place is about. Most of my best authentic Italian food experiences have been…More »

I have never really had interest in West-indies cuisine until last year when I saw Feasting on Waves, the follow up to road-food frenzy, Feasting on Asphalt with Alton Brown. Alton Brown is a Food-Porn God for his eagerness and endless knowledge of…More »
I found this gem while in the middle of nowhere. They call it the Cité des Multimédia, a seemingly desperate attempt at this time to revive this almost barren and abandoned part of Montréal. Now it seems to come alive with high priced super-condo…More »

The places sure does need a makeover but not the food.…More »

Well I had heard of The Palace Grill on The Food Network and I keep seeing going by it every day on my way to the Cirque so today I decided to stop by.
No regrets. I had what was probably the best cheeseburger I've ever had. Meaty, greasy, cheesy,…More »

Kinzie what can I say, you make a mean steak and it had me standing up and dancing. Yeah it was that good. I hit the Bone-In Delmonico steak. I don't how authentic it is to the true Delmonico cut because it's highly disputed still but it was one…More »
