Calmar frits dans une huile douteuse.
Sauce avec le canard trop sucré.

L'ambiance est toujours super. C'est une magnifique brasserie comme il y en a peu à Montréal. La bouffe est habituellement correcte, sans plus. Hier, la pieuvre croustillante n'était nullement croustillante & absolument pas saisie sur le grill, comme l'avait indiqué le serveur. Elle était coriace, à la limite du mangeable. Notre table était au bout d'une allée, alors à deux reprises les serveurs m'ont accroché la tête (!) avec leurs assiettes.

Le doré était un des meilleur que j'ai aimé. J'apprécie l'atmosphère décontractée ce qui n'empêche pas la classe!

J'ai pris les moules marinières, escargots à l'ail & profiteroles comme dessert. Bon service courtois malgré que le restaurant était plein. Souper parfait avec des membres de la famille.
