Background on Montreal Restaurants

 

As part of my trip to Montreal, I did much research via chowhound, Fodor's, Frommer's, Yahoo travel, and other web sites on good restaurants nearby. I knew I wanted to eat at places that I can't find back at home. That meant French bistros and nice bakeries. But it also meant so much more. I learned Montreal really was a good town for foodies, with countless other unique dining experiences with restaurants specializing in items ranging from fois gras and Montreal bagels to smoked meats and poutine. Even though I was in the city for five days, I could've easily filled many times more days than that with recommended restaurants.

 

We went to Le Commensal twice on this trip, once on 2006-09-24 and once on 2006-09-27.

Le Commensal is a small chain of vegetarian buffet restaurants in Montreal. Most reviews I read said it provided a good, satisfying, healthy meal that's a nice change from fancy, heavy, or fast food. As one of the few non-intimidating (i.e., not too sophisticated) restaurants I saw recommended downtown, I figured it was a good lunch stop as we explored downtown.

 

 

Le Commensal Review for 2006-09-24

 

Le Commensal provided us a very wide selection of decent vegetarian food, served buffet style by weight. The most appealing aspect was the variety.

 

The items I tried included:

  • garlicky bread croutons. fine.
  • asian-style vegetables. eh.
  • pasta salad. okay.
  • asian-style noodles. decent.
  • a funky seitan dish.
  • fresh fruit. I stole some from my mom. It was terrific! Really fresh, very good strawberries and pineapples.

 

The decor was welcoming, comfortable plastic tables and chairs, much like Ikea. The Le Commensal location we went to was centrally located downtown and had a nice view of the street from its second story windows.
