Avis pour Bar Chez Maurice
Calamars frits corrects, mais le fichier & ships était pas mangeable.
I didn't go there for the food. We saw a show last night & it was so much fun even though it was very busy staff was very friendly
Food is nothing special. Service was good. Typical pub food. Nice venue + atmosphere.
So I was on a quest for this legendary drink, the'Golden Idol.' Supposedly it gives you this feeling of like, total bliss if your brave enough to drink it, & it led me to a place that people only talk about in whispers: The Serpent's Kiss.
Getting there was a whole thing. I had to cross the Îles aux tourtes bridge over a treacherous river, & then fight through the downtown Saint Lazare jungle where honking cars are like the war cries of some forgotten tribe.
The entrance was super low-key, just this little carving of a snake eating its own tail. Inside, the air was thick with the smell of spices & old booze, it was really cool. The lighting was all moody & made these long shadows dance on the walls, & they had artifacts from all over the place. I was half expecting a poison dart to shoot out of the wall or something. Behind the bar was this guy who could only be the high priest of the place, he had a grizzled beard & these eyes that looked like they'd seen a thousand happy hours. He was polishing a glass like it was a sacred relic.
'I seek the Golden Idol,' I said, my voice was barely a whisper.
The bartenders eyes narrowed.'Many have sought it,' he rumbled, his voice like rocks grinding together.'Few have been worthy.' He then gave me a bunch of trials. First, I had to figure out a menu full of riddles. Then I had to pick the right glass from a whole bunch of chalices & goblets & tiki mugs. Any one of them could have been like, a poison cup or something. I chose… wisely.
Making the drink was a whole ritual. The bartender moved with this real precise, almost mystical grace, he was combining rare liquors from unlabeled bottles & muttering stuff in a language I didn't know, & garnishing it with a plant I'm pretty sure is extinct. The final thing was this glowing, golden drink that practically hummed with its own energy.
I took a sip. Woww. The world just dissolved into flavor. It was like they opened the Ark of the Covenant, but instead of melting my face off it just melted away all my anxiety. I felt total euphoria, invincible even. I understood the secrets of the universe, I probably could have outrun that giant boulder..But the moment didnt last long. Out of the corner of my eye I see this other adventurer dude, wearing a cheap fedora, eyeing my drink with some serious jealousy. I knew I had to get out of there. I grabbed my precious drink & made a run for it, dodging a flying peanut & just barely missing a swinging light. I burst out into the night with the taste of victory & aged rum on my lips.
The Serpent's Kiss is not for the faint of heart, its a perilous journey. But for those brave enough to face the trials, the reward is definately worth it. Five stars. Just make sure you bring a whip.
place plus que parfait nourriture prix & personnel très accueillant
