Montreal restaurant Kit is about over 5,000 establishments that offer every style of cooking from every ethnic origin imaginable, often in amazingly creative combinations.
Magnificent decor, impeccable service, trendy menus, bring-your-own-wine, top-notch cuisine at affordable prices - traditionnelle, haute, bistro or québecoise - Montréal has them all in profusion.
Montréal boasts a delectable variety of specialties, locally grown or produced. Venison and bison steaks, raw milk cheeses, canadian ice wine, maple sugar liqueurs, and, of course, what has made Montréal famous for years and years, smoked meat, bagels and “the decadent combination of French fries, gravy and cheese curds called poutine.”
The Montreal scene is booming with conveniently located restaurants so disappointments caused by busy restaurants can often be avoided.
When planning a business lunch or a family dinner, it is always a good idea to make a reservation.
You can get advance knowledge by making specific inquiries about menu, prices, access and special arrangements. It might be important to you to end your meal with a cheese selection and Port. Don't wait until the moment arrives, only to find that nothing of the sort is offered.
Getting a prime-time reservation on a weekend can be a challenge. Some people get those reservations and others don't.
Then again, too many people place too much emphasis on visiting busy restaurants that are new, hot, staffed by a celebrity chef, featured on TV, or otherwise in demand, rather than restaurants that are simply good.
If the restaurant does mostly dinner business, go for lunch, the food will be the same, and often cheaper. If it serves a mostly pre-theatre crowd, go at 8 pm. If it’s a business oriented place, go on the weekend. Even the most popular restaurants tend to be empty during blizzards, hockey games or special TV shows.
Thank you for visiting Montreal Restaurant Kit. More to come soon.
