CRUNCH CRUNCH !

Le meilleur panko de Montréal - ou, à tout le moins, de la rue Saint-Denis - se trouve chez Sato. La charmante propriétaire vous accueille avec un sourire sincère & vous gâte par sa gentillesse. Les assiettes sont aussi belles que délicieuses, soigneusement présentées & pleines de saveurs.

L'endroit a quelque chose de presque mystique : une ambiance unique, chaleureuse & mémorable. Même les toilettes débordent de personnalité ! Une adresse aussi originale que savoureuse, où l'on a envie de revenir encore & encore.
