Montreal: Birthday Dinner at Joe Beef
The culinary highpoint in a trip full of amazing food has to be the dinner Tammi and I had on my birthday at Joe Beef. A month after our trip to Montreal, I'm still drooling over the extreme and delicious meal we had there.
Rather than attempt to narrate the meal, I'm just going to give a visual recap of the spectacle after the jump. Enjoy!
The chalkboard menu.
A pre-dinner Bloody Caesar cocktail.
Oysters.
Tammi's Burrata with cherry tomatoes on a cheesy tart.
Fried Eel Nuggets.
Foie Gras Double Down. Yes. Foie Gras. Fried. With house smoked cheddar and bacon in sandwiched between it. This was a small.
Three Trees Wine, a bottle of carignan recommended by our server.
My main course, also picked by our server, was a whole pigeon.
My veggie side, because you can't eat all that foie gras without at least trying to eat something healthy.
Tammi's Spaghetti Homard Lobster. A serious win. So good. And it's inspired me to try to recreate it at home.
Dessert sundae.
After it was all done, we headed down the block for drinks at Liverpool House.
