🇨🇦 MTL | Falling Hard for Salle Climatisée 💋
Always forgetting to take photos 🫠 but this time I remembered! Just a little food diary moment— The server sweetly explained the entire menu, and seeing me struggle to choose, she offered to make everything except mains into half portions. YES! Solo diner’s dream come true—I went ALL IN! 🎉 🍽️ Dish-by-Dish Breakdown: 🥢 Leek (10000/10) The BEST leeks in Montreal. Silky-soft but not mushy, naturally sweet, bathed in a rich sauce that complements without overpowering. Harmony level: 100%! 🤯 🥢 Radish & Strawberry (6/10) Radishes were crisp, but the strawberries felt lackluster—no pop, no zing. The sauce? Like it belonged to a different universe. � 🥢 Cucumber & Lobster (10000/10) OH. MY. GOD. Tender, sweet lobster, with scallions as the MVP. The sauce had a toasted pecan vibe—so addictive I nearly licked the plate clean. 🦞🔥 🥢 Asparagus & Beef Tartare (7/10) Usually not a tartare fan (why does raw beef taste like old freezer?), but this one defied expectations. The asparagus? Devoured in seconds. The tarragon? Tried its best, but vanished into the background. 🌿 🥢 Radicchio & Green Pea (10/10) Bitter radicchio + sweet peas + umami-packed sauce = LOVE. A flavor bomb that left me speechless. 🤤 🍷 Vibe Check: Every wine rec from the staff was spot-on. Also, their energy? Infectious! Watching them bounce around the cozy space, sipping drinks at the bar between shifts—peak workplace happiness. ✨ Final Verdict: Every dish = fresh ingredients + bold sauces. Sure, the formula seems simple, but when the sauces are this magical, who’s complaining? I’m obsessed. 📍 Salle Climatisée Hours: Wed-Sun, 5PM-11PM #MontrealEats #MontrealLife #MTLFoodie #Montreal #BistroMTL #HiddenGem #WineLover #SoloDining #MustTry #FoodieHeaven
