Barocco :) on St Paul and St Pierre

Good Resto i went to the other day:
Casa Minhota
Grilled octopus was amazing. Great wines, cozy restaurant. Typical Portuguese grilled meats.
another good one i went to recently:
Il Piatto Pieno
This is one of the best BYOW ive been to. Table D'Hote is $30, selection of any entre, main dish, desert and coffee.
wood oven Pizza's were HUGE and amazing. Pretty decent Pasta dishes also.
very good value. |
il piatto pieno was good....not spectacular, but definately solid. i like the singer they have there on weekends....it makes for an interesting night. |

Leméac, one of the most over rated restaurant in this town... went there 3 times, 3 time the food was a disgrace for the price you pay.
1- order veal liver...rare, came out medieum well.
2-ask for hot and blue filet mignon, came out cold.
3- the waitress came twice with the wrong wine at the table.
4- Once for lunch, veal sweetbreath risotto with wild mushroom...over cooked risotto, and by the way, where's the wild mushroom??.
I mean they did 5-600 custumer a day on busy summer, maybe I wasn't lucky this time.
It still a good restaurant, staff are nice and very professionnal, but way over rated to me. |

toque is not what it used to be.
lemeac is very over rated, but the most over rated piece of resto in this town is queue de cheval by far.
I am going to try bistro justine next week, i'll post my thoughts on it:) |

toque has the most amazing creme brulee ever. and i mean ever. no creme brulee has come close, ever. toque has spoiled creme brulee for me.
plus the steak de cerf was incredible, well cooked.
VIVE LA BOUFFE !
Sho-Dan is very good for Sushi, but make sure to ask for the special list.
Try the "Besame Mucho" and the "Newton" |

| Haha I was trying to think why the name La Griglia D'Oro sounds familiar and I remembered that my friend actually used to work there. Maybe I should check it out some time. |
