Montreal | Old Port's Hidden Gems Just Keep Coming! 🤯🍝

On a snowy ❄️ day when the city was blanketed in white, we trekked to Old Port for the ultimate comfort food fix—because nothing beats Italian cuisine for warming both body and soul! 🥺❤️ This cozy spot may have a small menu, but each dish is a masterpiece. ✨ 🍽️ Starters That Stole Our Hearts ▫️ Zucchini Ripiene OMG. 🤩 Half a zucchini stuffed with roasted eggplant, bell peppers, and mushrooms, then smothered in melted goat cheese 🧀. Served with a tangy tomato sauce that makes your taste buds dance! 💃 ▫️ Bruschetta New to the menu! Crispy baguette 🥖 topped with juicy tomatoes 🍅, fresh basil 🌿, and shaved Parmesan—so simple yet so addictive. Couldn't stop eating it! 😋 ▫️ Calamari Classic and reliable. 🦑 Not mind-blowing, but you won't regret ordering it! 👍 🍝 Pastas That Made Us Cry Happy Tears (We basically ordered the ENTIRE pasta menu...no shame! 😅) ▫️ Tortellini Alla Ricotta Creamy dream alert! 🚨 Ricotta-filled tortellini swimming in the most luscious rosé sauce, with garlic, tomato, and cream in perfect harmony. Topped with melty scamorza and house-made sausage bits? HEAVEN. 😇 ▫️ Spaghetti Carbonara Egg yolk porn alert! 🍳 Silky noodles coated in rich egg and black pepper, with crispy pancetta for that salty crunch. A tad salty, but egg lovers will worship this dish. 🙏 ▫️ Cavatelli Alla Pesto Pesto lovers, assemble! 🌿 The spiral shape traps all that herby goodness. Warning: If you're not a basil fan, skip it—but for the rest of us, it's pure joy. 😍 ▫️ Maccheroni Bolognese Meat lovers, this one's for you! 🐮 Al dente macaroni with a deep, beefy ragù, topped with half a burrata ball that oozes creamy perfection. 🤤 ▫️ Ragu di Manzo Tripouno Beef ragù + pappardelle = soulmates. 💕 Loaded with veggies and fresh herbs, this dish is comfort in a bowl. 🍜 ✨ Ambiance & Vibe The decor? STUNNING. 😍 Especially the photo wall near the restroom—total Instagram gold! 📸✨ 📍 Dinette Marcella 196 Rue Saint-Paul O, Montréal, QC H2Y 3P9 #MontrealFoodie #MTLEats #OldPortMagic #ItalianFoodHeaven #ComfortFoodGoals #HiddenGem #FoodieAdventure #PastaLover #MontrealLife
