Boo in Montreal: London Round Up

http://booinlondon.blogspot.com/2015/01/london-round-up.html

Tuesday, 30 December 2014. So I was back in the UK for Christmas, and despite a bout of the sniffles meaning I had to cancel some plans, I did make it to a couple of places on my to do list, which is loooong, considering I've only been away for 9 months. Bel and I had lunch at Bad Egg. So pretty and delicate. The service is charming, the room is wonderfully rustic and the company was excellent. Lucky EDers who get to have this as a local. Amazing place. The Ivy Market Grill. So the Ivy, that fancy pants ...

Boo in Montreal: Boo in New York - Momofuku Ssäm Bar

http://booinlondon.blogspot.com/2014/11/boo-in-new-york-momofuku-ssam-bar.html

Monday, 10 November 2014. Boo in New York - Momofuku Ssäm Bar. The only must visit place for me during my recent New York trip was a Momofuku. Restaurant. I didn't even mind which one. David Chang's restaurants have always been on my wishlist, I'm a regular reader of his Lucky Peach magazine and as luck would have it, I was staying at my friend Suz's place in the East Village, a stone's throw from the Ssäm Bar. I think this place is amazing. As well as incredible food and cocktail menus, they also of...

Boo in Montreal: Sumac

http://booinlondon.blogspot.com/2014/12/sumac.html

Friday, 26 December 2014. When Art came to stay we nipped over to St Henri and had lunch at Sumac. Think ‘middle Eastern’ cuisine along the lines of Yalla Yalla. In London. Until Sumac opened there was really nothing like this available in Montreal. Cutting to the chase, everything was awesome and I already can’t wait to go back. Just looking at these pictures and thinking about how good the food was is making me want to get back down there today, and look at this. 3618 Notre Dame O. Follow me on Twitter.

Boo in Montreal: October Round Up

http://booinlondon.blogspot.com/2014/10/october-round-up.html

Friday, 31 October 2014. Rounding up the month of October, some good brunches were the highlight. A couple of close to work revisits that are worth a mention, had a great thai chicken meatball soup at Le Local. Always a solid lunch choice and L'Orignal. Refurbished, rewrote the menu and relaunched. Had a nice suckling pig dish there one night for dinner. Here's the rest. People visit for desserts apparently in the evenings, I rather like the idea of popping in after dinner somewhere. I ate so much ch...

Boo in Montreal: Le Bremner

http://booinlondon.blogspot.com/2014/10/le-bremner.html

Tuesday, 28 October 2014. Restaurants are a big deal in Montreal. TV chef Chuck Hughes is co-owner and he was at Le Bremner. Our other main was the whole sea bream with red cabbage and carrots ($31). Nice but very boney, I'd attacked it with my knife and fork ahead of the waitress coming to the rescue and filleting the thing for us. I'd dislodged a lot of the blighters so it wasn't the easiest dish to eat. The accompanying gremolata was amazing. 361 St Paul East. Labels: Boo in Montreal. Food blogs I like.

Boo in Montreal: Boo in New York - Ippudo

http://booinlondon.blogspot.com/2014/11/boo-in-new-york-ippudo.html

Tuesday, 25 November 2014. Boo in New York - Ippudo. Best ramen in New York? Friends I was staying with reliably told me it can be found at Ippudo. We went for Sunday lunch at the Midtown outpost. They've just opened in London, to mixed reviews, but I loved the meal we had in New York. We started with an obligatory Sapporo ($6), mine didn't go down all that well tbh, it was too early and I was 2nd day hanging. Molly and I ordered exactly the same, starting with agedashi tofu ($10). Montreal too ( Saka Ba.
