The food and the dining experience was amazing. We went with the chef’s choice. Beautiful presentation, delightful ingredients and delicious dishes. There were at least four gluten free choices. All excellent. Delphine gave us excellent, professional and charming service. Reasonably prices. Cozy atmosphere. The drinks were ok. We did not try the wine.

So pleasantly surprised to see how (originally) a dessert bar can whip up amazing savoury dishes! I have to admit I was initially a little skeptical we had to share the tasting menu for 2 in fear of not being full enough, but we came out satiated. However, it did feel slightly out of balance to have 3 & desserts after only 3 savoury dishes because I was personally craving for more of the savoury, especially with the main dish being so darn delicious (but it's also possible my husband gobbled down bigger bites faster than me, so that's on us!) Every dish got better and better as we progressed through the tasting menu. The pre-dessert, however, was underwhelming considering how the spotlight was mainly on citrus fruits, but the freshness of the oranges were lackluster. The last dessert lacked body, a little too airy but I get the concept of ending on a lighter note. The main plum dessert was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! I have to say, it completely exceeded my expectations and it ticked all the checkboxes for a perfect plated dessert. The plum sorbet was so fresh and addictive, and the little dot of fermented plum so elegantly elevated the entire dish. I would come again just because it's rare to see a Montreal restaurant nail both savoury and desserts.
