text: After a long day of wandering around from the LARP to Tam Tams to climbing up to the top of Mont Royal it was time for my days companion and I to grab some food Dutifully I checked my yelp bookmarks of places I had yet to visit Of which I unfortunately have at this time of writing far too many This place sat atop the pile and off to Old Town I began to venturennAll in all this is a fantastic experience It is not overly expensive around a person it has a great focus on local produce and Quebecois game meat A nice rustic ambiance A nice gem in Old PortnnPersonally I stuck to the Yelp favourites The tuna tartare had a brilliant balance of spice and creamy sweet avocado The tomato below fresh crisp full flavourednI opted for a main of the deer steak perfectly cooked and flavourful Set atop a beautiful mash parsnip and fresh local mini heirloom tomatoes Still so very full a dessert must be tried upon the first visit Chocolate mousse and caramel Why yes yes I shall A nice balance of bitter and sweet given my general dislike for the stupidly sweet chocolate concoctions so often featured on desert menus this was a welcome reliefnnAhh but I forget to mention cocktails The two samplings of the evening I tasted were the Moscow MooseMule and The Concord Grape The Moscow Mule was done exceptionally no points for creativity but full points for to the book execution The concord grape reminded me of Welchs as a kid except alcoholic A wonderful thing if you are a boozing year old A interesting nostalgia decades later While it did not pair at all with the deer and I should have had wine it was surprisingly welcome with the dessert
