text: This place is not for the faint of heart I do not come here to grab a bite it is a place where I really want to make sure I have not eaten lunch by dinnertime This place is completely meat oriented where even vegetables are meatynnI almost always choose to sit at the bar and order something with foie gras Foie gras is not something I eat often but I always enjoy a well prepared piece and au Pied Cochon is one of the best places to experience this controversial product prepared to perfectionnnAu Pied de Cochon offers much more than foie gras and one of my favorite is the canard en conserve It is a duck Cooked in a can The can is opened in front of you and everything duck falls gently onto your plate This is a huge meal Easily can feed people but I rarely share Unless my BF orders the pied de cochon a la PDC he are not getting a bitennAnother plate I would highly recommend is the boudin It is beautiful Martin Picard is the essence of nose to tail cooking here in Montreal and I absolutely admire that about his restaurant and his cooking It is one thing to love meat it is another thing to truly respect everything about being a meat eater
