I had the immense honor of hosting my baptism at La Table d'André, and it was nothing less than spectacular. Perched on the waterfront with a breathtaking view of the historic Lachine Canal, the setting alone was enough to enchant our guests.
But what truly left everyone spellbound was the culinary genius of Chef Mike Mercuri, whose mastery of modern Italian fusion is a revelation.

The world-renowned food critics in attendance, seasoned travelers of the globe’s finest dining rooms, were stunned into awe by his creations.
