Found myself with Chinatown hotel reservations so was away from my usual comfortable Montreal surroundings. Nothing I love more than a dumpling but after arriving from California I felt I needed a little more. I went for a walk & stumbled across Maka?, what intrigued me was the sign for $1 oysters on Wednesdays & greatfully it was a Wednesday. I love Oysters but in California I have trouble finding them under $5 so this was my spot. Stepped Inside & was greeted with a beaming smile by LY & knew that i would be made to feel at home.. LY with her confidence & knowledge of the industry knew how to make a patron feel comforted to be there & struck up a lovely conversation if being old friends. It was early , so was not busy but the crowds started to swell for a wonderful Happy Hour on Tues, Wed & Thurs from 4 to 7pm with 50% off some outstanding appertisers. The place has a wonderful casual atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home . If you do find yourself in Chinatown, take a few steps of the main strip. You will not be disappointed. I loved the Rock Shrimp for my starter , pure crisp perfection & the Teriyaki Salmon topped off my evening delightfully. Get out & give this hidden gem a try.View more
