This was my 6th Michelin star restaurant in the last 10 days. I could have been saturated or bored. But No. Sabayon delivered a unique repertoire of flavours & textures that clearly distinguish itself from any restaurant. Among the dishes, the amuse-bouche with the mushroom broth, the scallops, maitake, vert 2.0 & chocolate dessert were divine. The setting was very convivial & the service familial. In sum, it was an outstanding experience that needs to be repeated in the near future.
Part 2-
My second visit to Sabayon didn't disappoint. In fact, it wasn't even more creative than the first visit which was already stellar! I know it is hard to believe but you have to experience it at least twice! This happened after another long trip of 5 weeks where I ate outside every day, & 7 Michelin stars restaurants across South Korea, Malaysia & Spain, which makes this experience even more formidable. Montreal is really lucky to have Patrice & Marie-Josée. I am looking forward to my next visit!
Expérience gastronomique hors du commun dans une ambiance intime permettant une extraordinaire proximité & complicité avec l'équipe, le chef & sa sommelière.
Des plats créatifs impliquant nos producteurs locaux avec des choix guidés par nos merveilleuses saisons.
Un incontournable pour nous, mais aussi distingué par Michelin, Les Lauriers de la Gastronomie Québécoise, ....
Merci de nous partager votre créativité... qui goûte le «ciel ».
Première expérience dans un restaurant étoilé Michelin. J'y suis allé pour l'heure du thé & j'avais très peu d'attentes car je ne suis pas un'foodie' & je n'ai pas particulièrement la dent sucrée mais on m'a invité du coup je suis allé nonchalamment.
J'ai reçu une claque, de l'extase pur, j'ai l'impression que j'ai de nouvelles papilles gustatives qui ont poussés, j'avais l'impression de goûter des nouveaux aliments qui n'existent pas encore, les textures sont parfaites, tout est beau visuellement, même les assiettes sont en porcelaine & très belles. Le thé est excellent & complimente à merveille le dessert entre chaque bouchée.
Si j'avais une seule critique à faire c'est la première impression des cuillères, elles ont plein de'scratch' & de micro-abrasions comme si elles avaient fait 500 lavages dans un lave-vaisselle LG. Il faudrait les laver à la main. Le reste des verres/assiettes sont immaculés mais pour un restaurant de ce'standing' donnez moi une cuillère qui sors de la pub de Finish Jet-Dry. 😤
Bref, c'est une expérience à faire une fois dans sa vie, il mérite amplement son étoile! ⭐?

Enjoyed a truly exquisite meal starting with some delightful amuse-bouche, followed by asparagus with smoked eel, calamondin. Then came the incredible lobster with morel mushrooms, white asparagus, & fresh herbs, which was absolutely delicious. Next was Arctic char with caramelized onion & mushrooms, followed by grilled mushrooms with arlette, sabayon, & celeriac. For dessert, I had rhubarb granite with whipped cream, roasted almonds, & edible flowers, then chocolate mousse with pecans & wild caraway, finishing with mignardises. Each dish was a work of art, especially that lobster... it was incredible!
That Michelin star is well deserved. We'll be back for the next season.
Magnifique expérience au Sabayon. Le menu 7 services est vraiment incroyable! Plats raffinés & bien exécutés, 3 desserts pour finir dont un, celui à la fraise, digne d'une étoile michelin tellement ctait époustouflant! On a hâte d'y revenir. Nous avions aussi pris l'accord mets vins, pour ma part j'aurais aimé avoir un choix de vins un peu plus haut de gamme. Ctait bon mais moins dans mes goûts.
