This is a hybrid, a test, an essay, a first draft ... how to say, my first video?! Find it a closely guarded secret of my routine Friday morning!
3 .. 2 .. 1 .. Action!

Our little group has been greeted with dignity. Our server patiently answered our questions and took time to give details on the delicious offerings. The sunny restaurant on Masson, between 6th and 7th Avenue, offering cuisine from Latin America. In other words, the y'abe conventional lunch!
The base of poached eggs and bubbles chorizo, caramelized onions on homemade bread was very popular at our table. The bubbles are a chorizo emulsion formed from a broth containing the famous sausage. This soft foam is an interesting alternative to the eternal bechamel sauce and chorizo is a spicy exotic touch to the dish.
I was happy with my choice, that is to say the steak with spices, egg mirror and patatas bravas. The bubbles of chorizo were new and fun to try, but my steak was tender to perfection, cooking I like! The mixture of flavors was just flat. A real breakfast of champions. Patrick Bower (& The World Without Magic ) is not the next buzz band. This is the project of a man who has the bottle, no less than ten years of experience behind him and takes his time. Not out of laziness not, but by attention to detail. That make a pop melancholy we stuck with it. Meeting over coffee to talk about music, his own and that of others, and what can suck a big bearded thirty-two years.
embroidered In this place of solid wood, dark color and rough metals, we are offered a place at the bar. The wine list is well filled, but our choice stops quickly on a refreshing cup of Alligot in aperitif.
We quickly said that the daily soup is a soup of leek and cauliflower. I have not lost time to make my choice. The creamy liquid has played its role. The taste of cauliflower precedence over the rest.
Pat him, faltered for the half-salmon tartare. Blown quinoa and homemade potato chips, a little fat-served with fish are clever additions to this luscious and tasty entry.
true to ourselves, our attention has been retained by the same meal. Without consulting us, it's the rabbit kidneys we ordered. ( Y'know, the kind of dish that I avoid cooking ...) Finally, I was pleasantly surprised at the attitude! The mixture of flavorful vegetables crisp and well accompanied by a savory sauce allowed me to enjoy these small bodies with gusto and without disdain. To start and recommend! For a glass of wine ($ 9.25), an appetizer and a meal, my bill came to more or less $ 50 tip included. Nothing Flabbergast as said the other, but a good-quality report price. I'd go back for another head-to-head in love with the majestic reclining bar or for an evening with friends!
The soup is very good, very tasty. The fried banana is a good source of corn syrup, which includes a few giggles at the end of the meal and a belly pumped up for one or two hours. So far nothing unusual, but effective performance for the price!
This Saturday there was me and Bea entertained in this restaurant . Today I discovered that the place has earned a kernel of $ 900 in June 2010 for his safety (or rather unhealthy). You will therefore understand the lack of enthusiasm in my pen. One would think that to enjoy a meal, it is sometimes better not to know where our food has dragged ...
This bar located in the heart of the Plateau has a diverse clientele. Of all ages, people who meet there in the same goal: unpack a drink in hand while chatting. Moreover, the Bily Kun offers plenty of draft beers, spirits and cocktails. In short, no excuse for not releasing the tongue. There are drinks for every taste!
The walls of the room are white brick pavers and framed large marine moldings. The scenery had its effect, especially when one considers that these very high walls are decorated with real ostrich heads proudly watching the client.

that evening to crown weekend, a black velvet $ 7 and a plate of chorizo Charlevoix of $ 5.75 were very popular and reasonable my loot. On the music of a jazz duo, it was told our weeks, we drank, laughed and nibbled.
Yesterday I relished of their delicious melodies. Today, I spoil my eyes to their images. It is unnecessary to make a return on their delivery of 31 January 2011 ... Enough to be there to succumb.
