L'Avenue_Montreal

L'Avenue is certainly the most talked about in Montreal.  Small place, long wait time, but definitely worth it.  I ordered Huevos Rancheros and Nutella Pancake with Strawberries.   Huevos Rancheros was hot, fresh and very tasteful.  It was very filling, but because the waitress had recommended the pancakes, I had to try them.  I have had pancakes at many different place but L'Avenue by far have had the best ones.  The were soft, fluffy, hot, and very delicious, and of course nutella and strawberry made it even better.  This is definitely a place everyone should go to, specially if you are visiting Montreal.  I highly recommend this place for everything.

TheKeg_Montreal

By far one of the finest restaurants in Montreal Downtown.  Excellent Service, great food, cost effective, many drink options, and romantic ambiance.  These are all the things that sum up, The Keg Steakhouse in Montreal downtown.  I went for a birthday part with some friends and had an excellent, satisfying, delicious, and very filling food.  I started of with Chopped Vegetable Salad, and it was everything the description said.  Fresh chopped vegetables with feta and dijon vinaigrette was delicious and very tasteful for a salad.  For my main course I had Mustard Salmon, which was very fresh and tender.  The salmon would just melt in my mouse, and I can still feel the taste.  The honey and dijon mustard spread just added an extra kick to the salmon and it was beyond tasty.  It is not possible to go to Keg and not have Billy Miner Pie for desert.  There is just something about this pie made with Mocha ice-cream, on chocolate crust with hot fudge and almond that keeps making you want to go back just for the desert.  The meal at The Keg is not complete without this desert.  The next time you are in Montreal, you much go to The Keg and enjoy the best meal of the day.  I guarantee that you will walk out fully satisfied.

JulietteEtChocolat_Dix30

Yummy! Delicious! Fresh!  These are the words that define Juliette Et Chocolat in Dix30.  To start I had The Spanish Tortilla Crepe with Chai Latte, and oh my god, it was fresh, hot, and beyond delicious.  The quantity was much larger than what I expected and it was filling.  I loved the fact that the crepe was filled with egg, potato, pesto and cheese from corner to corner.  Every bite was very tasteful.  After the meal I was pretty full but I could not leave the place without trying their desert place, so I ordered chocolate banana crepe, and it was soft, warm, and extremely fresh.  Even though I was full, I still finished my desert crepe and walked out extremely satisfied.  The staff is amazing, the food is delicious, and the ambiance is very chill.  I certainly recommend this place the next time you want to enjoy an excellent meal with desert.

LesGlaceurs_Montreal

I love red velvet cupcakes and the best ones in Montreal can be found at Les Glaceurs.  Whenever I go out of town or to someone's house I always make a stop at any of their locations and grab a box of fresh Red Velvet Cupcakes.  They are beyond delicious.  They have regular and mini cupcakes and are definitely worth the price.  I highly recommend them.  They have many other creative flavours but I have always gotten red velvet and have been fully satisfied.

GrandLuxCafe_Chicago

So I have heard a lot about this place but had never been there.  But let me tell you that everything I heard was very true.  Good food, excellent service, and delicious desert that melts in your mouth.  So I was really in a mood for a burger and being a vegetarian my choices are very limited.  I saw Veggie Burger on the menu but what was interesting was the description of the burger.  Its made with brown rice, beats, and beans.  Sounded very different and was not sure how it would be but really wanted to try it.  And omg it was beyond delicious.  Very tasteful, juicy, and definitely hit the spot.  I was extremely full after the meal but I had to try the desert.  Their Molten Chocolate Cake takes 30 mins to cook and its cook per order so its extremely fresh and hot when it arrives.  The cake with melted chocolate in centre really melts in your mouth and adding vanilla ice cream to it is a perfect combination of cold and hot.  If you are in Chicago next time then certainly try this place.  There is a wait to get the table because its always packed but its truly worth the wait.
