Montréal | La Panzeria

A long-awaited culinary rendezvous 🍽️💫 I’d heard legends about this place, but my first attempt ended in defeat—no reservation, a packed house, and empty stomachs. 😩 This time, armed with determination (and a friend who arrived before opening 🕺), we finally conquered the La Panzeria experience. 🎉 Focaccia: The non-negotiable star 🌟 We went for the half-and-half 🤌🏻—a decision that paid off in delicious dividends. 💰🍞 ⭕ CHE FIGA (Figs & Burrata) An orchestra of flavors 🎻🍯 The creamy burrata performed a perfect balancing act with the salty prosciutto 🧀🥓, while the figs added a sweet, earthy depth. Then came the spicy honey—the maestro of this dish—drizzled generously and seeping into every layer. One bite unleashed a flavor explosion 💥 (in the best way possible)—bold, harmonious, and utterly addictive. 😍 ⭕ LA MORTZZA TUA (Pistachio) The quiet cousin 🤫🌿 Eaten first but remembered faintly (much like its taste 😅). The pistachio cream whispered softly against the focaccia’s crust, so subtle you’d hardly notice if it slipped away mid-bite. 👀💨 Pro tip: If ordering this duo, start with the pistachio—its delicate profile gets utterly overshadowed by the fig’s boldness. 🚨🍯 Pasta interlude 🍝🎶 The Sunday special orecchiette was… fine. 👍 Not a standout, but no regrets either—just a reliable carb bridge between focaccia and coffee. ☕ Coffee epilogue 📜☕ My friend swore by their espresso (beans imported from Italy, per the barista 🇮🇹). A compelling reason to return—alongside that fig focaccia haunting my dreams. 👻🍯 #Montreal #MontrealEats #FoodieDiaries #DiscoverMTL #WorthTheWait
