Output: Getting an RSVP at one of Montreal's best restaurants has become difficult. Liverpool House? Three-week wait. Le Hangar? Sure there's room, if you want to eat before 5:30pm or after 10:30pm. Bremner? No matter how early you plan, making an RSVP is difficult if no one answers the phone or calls you back - well done on joining Opentable. Ah yes, planning a night out is currently necessary even in Montreal, especially since popular restaurant trends promote smaller, cozier, bustling restaurants that fill up fast. That's how I finally ended up at Tuck Shop. I've wanted to try this place for a while, so I called a week early to reserve for a group, and opted for the dinner-table-style menu that includes 4 appetizers and 2 mains (a steal at $45 per person). A taste of everything for everyone? Aww yeahhh. We started with a salad - white beets, coriander, mango, arugula, radish, cucumbers and parmesan. It was yummy and refreshing, especially with the tart lemony dressing. Next, we had the most delicious smoked salmon ever. At Tuck Shop, the salmon is wild, house cured and smoked, and comes with "potato rosti", trout caviar and creme fraiche. And I repeat - delicious. Our third appetizer consisted of cheese tacos. Made with fried mozzarella, coriander, corn and lettuce, they were soft and delightful. Awesome, because tacos can easily be flavourless. It might be surprising, but it's true. Our last appetizer included caramelized salmon with bok choy, root veggies and quinoa. The salmon was crispy on the outside and prepared to the point of a perfect soft pink on the inside. The veggies were cooked but crunchy. Delish. Having forgotten how many dishes were included in our menu, we thought our meal was over. Lo and behold, the waitress came over to tell us that our mains were on their way. Oh baby! These included the most mouthwatering jerk chicken accompanied by black bean puree and fried okra. It was spicy and juicy and everything jerk chicken should be. Perfection. Finally, our last main consisted of hanger steak with chimichurri, wild mushrooms and rapini. Again, so good. And the best part? We didn't even have to say "medium-rare". We wrapped up our meal with three delicious desserts to share. Tiramisu, warm apple pie, and caramel fleur de sel "cheesecake". The tiramisu was good, but not something to rave about. It's ok - a tiny bit of sub-perfection makes Tuck Shop human. The apple pie was amazing - warm and so satisfying with its crumbly crust and just-sweet-enough apple center. Needless to say, our favorite was the caramel fleur de sel "cheesecake" that was more of a silken cheesy-caramel-y-salty-cream than a cheesecake. Whoa. Yes, I absolutely loved Tuck Shop. It made me think of a smaller Orignal and a non-pretentious Garde Manger. The music was super fun (Tom Petty and Gypsy Kings, anyone?) and added to the bon-vivant vibe that permeated the small restaurant. The service was good and the food was varied and delicious. I do hope that Tuck Shop's tables continue to be difficult to book for a while - it would certainly be well deserved. Food 9.5/10, Atmosphere 9.5/10, Pretty people 9/10, Music (superfun, goodvolume) 9.5/10, Service 8.5/10. Pictures: http://www.belledenuitmontreal.com/posts/tuck-shop/

Output: I'm afraid I'm going to have to dissent from the majority here and say that we were very disappointed by this place. We wanted to love it - great location, inviting atmosphere, very reasonably priced comfort food menu - we could use a place like this on our restaurant rotation. Alas, that is not to be. The problem is the food. Everything else was perfect and the service was excellent but I'm sorry to say, this is some of the blandest food I've ever had. There were four of us at dinner and nobody liked their food. Every dish was OK (as in edible) but nothing was particularly good. Every dish was under-seasoned and under-salted. Every single dish, from the bread to the dessert. A few specifics: Chopped Salad - As someone else commented, it looked like a child threw some things on a plate. That's spot on. And peanut brittle? Just say no to that idea please. Osso Buco Confit - Dry and completely devoid of flavor, and a rather small portion on top of it. Accompanied by a tablespoon of (once again) under-salted spaetzle. Bread - Again, bland - There were four of us and we didn't finish our small bread basket. Everybody tried it and the reaction was, "ehh." Fruit Cobbler - A ramekin of fruit in syrup with ice cream is not a "cobbler." A cobbler implies either a pastry or biscuit topping. There was none. Very, very disappointing. Pecan Pie. A very poor execution of this American classic. Again, completely devoid of flavor. The drinks were quite good and the service was excellent and friendly to a fault. I love the idea of this place and I love the menu, but the food just did not deliver.

Output: I do get my nails done here and there.. when I feel like it. However, this is the ONLY place i have been where the have the newest up to date acrylics: shimmer-sparkles- AND colors OH MY! to choose from. I recently moved and still keep in contact to say hello with my girl. SHE MADE MY NAILS LOOK LIKE SHINY JEWELS!!! The Price is fair for the precise and neat work that is done. Around $35/40 (new) depending. I usually would get a shimmer acrylic on the tips then would fill later. No second thoughts.. if you walk in its worth the wait. :) I have recommended MANY friends here. Nails would never pop off, i would ask to soak or drill down to take off.
