Well, I didn't take a photo of the soup we had but the bread basket that we were given was "attacked" - the bread was simply so delicious ... with a slight crusty exterior and its soft fluffy dough on the inside, we all loved it. We had to stop ourselves from asking for more as we had to leave some room for our main meals! Actually, most of the bread and pastries we had in Quebec were all marvelous - they never go wrong!
But even before our mains, this entree was heavenly. Feuillete Escargot ($6.95) tantalised our taste buds and sent ripples of total enjoyment. The snails and mushroom in the almost perfect puff pastry was a joy to eat; flavourful garlicky and smooth white wine cream sauce which was just delightful. I'm not ashamed to say that the plate was completely "cleaned" by me. I mopped up whatever cream there was with the flaky yet soft pastry.
Mom had her usual Salmon fillet that was served with basmati rice and vegetables on the side. The Pave De Saumon ($18.95) made mom happy too :o)
Bavette De Bouef ($18.95 for 170 gm) was great too. The shoestring french fries on the side was a really generous serving - it was like we ordered fries with steak rather than steak with fries. But we ate quick a lot of it with the tasty homemade mayonnaise that came with it. Hahaha.....The medium done steak was juicy and fork tender.''
Cotes Levees ($18.95)- Maple Smoked Ribs was listed under "American Formula" and is also available in 4 course meal which is what Bro-in-law ordered. He tucked into this with gusto and was absolutely stuffed at the end of his meal.
The set came with dessert...wasn't too sure what this was - seems to an oat/cereal layered with some cranberries and served with vanilla custard sauce.
