This restaurant introduced the world to the often-overlooked Québecoise cuisine and received beaucoup kudos. Chef Martin Picard has created some cheeky signature dishes centered on foie gras. There are 10 choices in including the much in demand poutine topped with foie gras. Another amusing dish is the Duck in a Can, half a duck breast stuffed with thyme sprigs, a large piece of foie gras, carrots, celery that is, well, served in a can. The staff will bring you a can opened free of charge. If your arteries aren't too clogged, go for one of the delicious pies: either apple or the sinfully decadent sugar pie. You'll have to go for a walk after your meal.

EXPERT TIPS BY:

Montréal Local Expert
- French: "There's no name on the outside so look for the menu displayed in the window."
- Best Restaurants: "To balance out the heavy meat and game menu try the melt- in-your-mouth tomato tart side dish served in an impossibly light and flakey pastry."
- Best for French Because: Chef Martin makes no apologies for the decadent snout to hoof offerings for true meat lovers.
- Recommended as Best Restaurants Because: Au Pied de Cochon (Pigs Feet)is THE place to sample the best of Quebec meats and game.
