For a romantic dinner, look no further than Choux Gras at the Fairmont Mont Tremblant Hotel. The dining room features an elegant, yet warm, retro design thanks to a custom-made central fireplace all overlooking Tremblant's ski slopes.
This culinary brasserie, like Montreal's best, offers a varied menu including dishes to share: the tender octopus is a result of a three-hour sous vide cooking marathon with squid ink and lima beans best eaten with homemade warm breads and local vegetables. Crispy polenta with a creamy mascarpone and cress emulsion, spinach with butter, shallots and white wine appeases vegetarians and others who just enjoy tasty appetizers.
The wine list offers over 50% from private imports chosen by the sommelier.
Guests and visitors alike are welcome to start their evening at Axe, the adjacent contemporary styled, yet cozy bar with picture windows on the ski slopes. Patrons can cozy up in tiny tables for two, sit around the large fireplace or join Carl and his fellow "liquid chefs" who delight in preparing a cocktail creation of the moment such as the Gimlet Mademoiselle with an elderflower infusion or his take on the Bee's Knees, made with local pine gin.
