Montréal


Inspired by the street food (and beer) of Vietnam, this neighborhood charmer showcases simple but delectable recipes, near the foot of Mont-Royal. The menu is small, with highlights such as grilled beef with watercress salad, lemongrass pork ribs and spicy papaya salad.

It's set in a minimal, warmly lit dining room (illuminated by sculptural light fixtures), with a lovely terrace in front. The restaurant was opened by the late chef and local personality Hong Hà Nguyen.
