Unfortunately, the food was not as great as it had been when we came last year. The menu was different.

Cochon Dingue is a chain, which to us Americans usually translates to "don't bother eating here,"…read morebut in true Quebecois form, the Cochon Dingue is simply delicious and not to be lumped in with our said American chains' standards. They serve meals pretty much all day: breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. There is truly something for everyone on their diverse menu, so if you're traveling with kids, extended family, or just picky eaters, this is a guaranteed-to-satisfy-everyone experience. This was our second time eating at this chain (first was another location and 2 years prior). Last time we ate there they offered a prix fixe menu (a set price for three courses), which they may still offer, we just weren't there for dinner this trip. Whether you're looking for something hearty and substantial or light and healthy, you're covered at the Cochon Dingue. Service is good and the ambiance is clean and stylish without feeling stuffy or pretentious. This particular location is off the lobby of a fairly busy hotel, so it may be difficult to get a table during peak dining hours as a walk-in. We were there for a late lunch so we had no issues. The Cochon Dingue is also where I finally tried the ubiquitous "sugar pie" two years ago after I kept seeing it on menus. IF YOU RETAIN NOTHING ELSE FROM THIS REVIEW, please hear me when I say you must order sugar pie immediately if you haven't tried it. I don't care where you get it. Just get it. I have not stopped obsessing over this pie for the last two years, and I owe that all to the Cochon Dingue. Dear Quebec, Your sugar pie should have songs written about it. The world is indebted to you. Sincerely, Me

If the service was good then it would be 5 stars cause the food was delicious. It was a Sunday at 2pm, we walked up to the front, it was not busy at all and we saw 2 servers chatting at the bar and looked at us but didn't say hi. No one greeted us for a full 10 mins. Eventually one of the servers by the bar came by and asked where we wanted to sit. We got sat outside and the weather was perfect but the tables were a bit messy. Our server definitely took her time coming to get our drink order and food order that it was about an hour before our food got there and we ate in 20 mins. The food was amazing, super flavorful and portions are larger. We took half a burger and half the poutine as a take out.

Ambience: It's quite romantic and cute, so it's good for a date or hanging out with friends. I enjoyed sitting outdoor and really love the French style.

L'Echaude is a solid restaurant in the lower part of Old QC near the water. Can be tough to get in…read moreso make a reservation early. I ordered the beef tartare, lobster bisque, scallops and pork and the peach tartelette. Prices were more than fair for this area and some of the lowest I've found for this level of food. Flavors were also very nice. Try to get seated on their outdoor terrace. Good spot. My only complaint comes from the fact that most of my food was not served as soon as it was done. The lobster bisque was nuked in a microwave before I received it, and my main dish came cold. Not what I'd expect from a Michelin-rated spot. When I mentioned it was cold, they just stuck the plate under a broiler for like a minute, which had the unfortunate effect of burning the pork on the plate. Overall, a decent restaurant that you can give a try if in the area, but nothing to go out of your way for.

I believe you usually have to prepay for the six course tasting menu, which we did not do. We did a la carte, which we were all glad about after tasting the food. The amuse bouche was a piece of salmon on top of what tasted like the fried crispy wontons that you get with Chinese takeout. Weird. My mother had the cucumber appetizer, which just tasted like a palette cleanser. She then had the agnolotti, which I thought was fine, but she didn't eat more than two bites. My dad had the suckling pig, which he nor the bite my mother took found enjoyable. I had the halibut, it was fine, I just don't think I like poached fish. The portions on the a la carte also seem to be the same as the tasting courses, which wasn't a big deal because none of us really enjoyed it. Their cocktails were surprisingly reasonable. My parents had gone last year and loved it, but this year wasn't great. I go to restaurants for the food. This visit we lucked out with great service and a spectacular view. I don't think we'll be going back. Oh, they give you complimentary bread (!!!) and delicious butter. I haven't seen quality bread and butter for a minute. My mom loved it last year, so went again, and np omen was happy

Review for Lueur Bar Counter by Laurie Rafael…read more What happens when you mix in a Michelin starred chef with a funk bar? Well, probably something that has a glow of lights and entertainment to fill up the place every night. Conveniently, "Lueur" translates from French as "Glow" and this is the kind of spot that would probably be called "hip" if that word was actually still hip. Forget about it, let's just say what it is, it is super hip. The small bar counter is served by a team of three who do a big part of the cooking and guest interaction. The vibe is chill, fun and unpretentious. Dress code is basically "whatever". Lueur is clearly the fun cousin of Laurie Rafael next door, always poking at its older relative for being way too pretentious. Let's talk about the food. Every dish is absolutely remarkable. Dishes decorating the ever changing menu include masterpieces like a Beef tartare tartlet with bone marrow parsley butter, Saint Jacques scallops under a generous layer of truffle bechamel and Pear Chocolate Entermet. Everything is exactly as good as it sounds. The fascinating thing about Lueur is not just the concept, but the team of three who manages to pull off two back to back seatings, each of which lasts roughly three hours. They are masters of the craft, working really hard and have an unusual balance of chef skills along with customer service ability. Thus, Lueur is a real gem for a casual, yet delicious tasting menu establishment.
