Parma Café - Un sandwich déjeuner qui fait le boulot, mais qui pourrait mieux faire
Ce matin, j'ai testé le sandwich déjeuner du Parma Café. Servi sur une tranche de ciabatta, l'ensemble est plutôt généreux : oeufs, jambon, fromage, tomates & roquette. À 6,50 $, c'est abordable & ça cale.
Côté texture, le pain mériterait d'être plus toasté. Là, il reste un peu farineux & mou, ce qui gâche un peu l'expérience. En pliant la tartine en deux, on obtient une sorte de demi-sandwich qui se tient mieux en main, mais on sent que la formule pourrait être mieux pensée.
Côté goût, ça manque de relief. Le fromage domine, au détriment des autres ingrédients. Les tomates ne sont pas assaisonnées, la roquette apporte une fraîcheur bienvenue, mais elle aussi reste neutre. L'équilibre entre le jambon & l'oeuf peine à se faire, notamment à cause d'un gras mal réparti.
Il manque un vrai marqueur de goût pour lier l'ensemble : une touche de moutarde, un filet d'huile d'olive, quelques oignons nouveaux ou simplement un bon assaisonnement auraient pu faire toute la différence.
Bref, c'est correct, ça dépanne, mais ça ne laisse pas de souvenir. À ce prix, on ne demande pas la lune, mais un peu plus d'attention à l'équilibre des saveurs ferait toute la différence. Un sandwich qui a du potentiel, mais qui mérite d'être retravaillé pour vraiment convaincre.View more

This place is EXACTLY what we hope look for when we're on vacation: A casual, non-pretentious place with food that is absolutely delicious! I enjoyed the charcuterie Panino & my wife had a Porchetta panino. Both were literally the best paninis we've had in North America & much of Italy. They both featured a special'relish' (for lack of a better word) that was a mix of lettuce, peppers pearl onions & exquisite seasoning. I wish I could have that on every sandwich I eat - forever! The mixtures is both exceptionally tasty & a bit spicy. When I took my first bite it was like a party in my mouth! I knew almost immediately that it was one of the best sandwiches that I'd ever had. Then my wife gave me a bite of her porchetta panino & THAT was even better. The seasoning on that pork just exploded my taste buds… & I'm not even a big fan of pork. One of the keys to the greatness of these sandwiches is the amazing bread. It has a perfect combination of a delicious, delicate center with a perfect, gourmet-crunchy crust. Not too hard or thick, but just right for marrying with the perfection of the ingredients.
Not to be outdone were the staff! They were all every bit as wonderful as the food, & so welcoming & helpful. My wife & I truly can't recommend the Parma Café enough. They served us a meal that we kept reflecting on with great fondness the rest of our trip. In fact, there is a very famous deli in Montreal called Schwartz's which is known around the world for its amazing sandwiches. We ate there the day before & it was, indeed, good , but if I had to choose between the two, I'd eat at Parma Café hands down every time. Enjoy.View more

Great spot for fresh deli food & desserts. Bread is crisp & fresh. Sandwiches are tasty. Price is reasonable. Atmosphere is perfect & the staff is friendly. If you don't have a lot of time this is great for take-out.View more

Super overrated & super overpriced you can find way better panini's for less the price in so many places across Montreal.View more

Kinda surprised this place is so well rated! The atmosphere is great, but the sandwiches are really underwhelming. The day I was there, all the coffees were insanely sweet (overheard others mention it as well, so it wasn't a one off). Anyways, wanted to like this spot but feels like i wasted $25.View more

Just had the greatest lunch ever! Every bite was absolute perfection-flavors on point, textures just right, & the kind of meal that makes you pause mid-bite just to appreciate it. & it was a winner for my picky son. Service was exceptional!View more
