Tuck Shop
Looking for a neighborhood charmer? Located off the beaten path in gentrified St. Henri, Tuck Shop is a cozy, intimate, seasonally-driven spot. With the zinc bar, subway-tiled walls, pendulum lamps, and chalkboard menu, Tuck Shop resembles the rustic chic restos that are trending in Brooklyn or Ballard. Yet, what grounds Tuck Shop in "Mount Real" is the staff's oh-so Canadian affability and the use of regional ingredients, like wild boar and lamb. Whether you sit at the bar, the cozy banquette, or nestled against windows steamy from the outside cold, you are guaranteed a good time.
A full-bar is on hand to whip up classic cocktails. Dine on fresh-caught crab salad, braised Quebec lamb shank, wild boar perogis, and homemade apple pie. Make your reservations early; for a small restaurant this big on flavor, Tuck Shop is inevitably busy.
Side Dish: Stumble over to McAuslan Brewery, Quebecís foremost micro-breweries, for a post-dinner beer flight, Wednesday-night brewery tour, or catch a show at the Centre dîAmbroise.
