Pizzedelic Rosemere

It was a beautiful day for Fête nationale du Québec. Patio season has come once again.

We ate at Pizzedelic (138 Cure labelle blvd, rosemere) for lunch. Once again, I overate. We ordered:

1. Moules Dijon
2. Siciliana pizza (small)
3. Bud Beer
4. Verre Sangria

To my surpise, the moules and fries were delicious. Additional liquor would have helped enhance the flavor more. The pizza was nothing special. I ended up using too much of the spicy oil to flavor the pizza. The beer was the perfect cold. Refreshing on a hot day like yesterday. The Sangria, was very light and refreshing.

Grand total: $49.65
Summary: Great place to enjoy the sun

Au Pied de Cochon


I finally got a reservation to Au Pied De Cochon (536 Rue Duluth). My reservation was for 6:00 pm yesterday. We got there 5 minutes early and we were promptly seated. Luckily, we had the address of the place as it did not have a sign indicating you were at the right place.

The atmosphere was pleasant and the aroma of the place teased my senses.

We ordered the following after watching the cooks popping oysters in the mouth and chasing it with a bottle of wine:

1. Roti Porc
2. Tuna Cru
3. Carpacio Carnard
4. Pied De Cochon
5. Pied de cochon beer
6. Cappuccino

The sauce that came with the porc tasted like tartar sauce. Nonetheless, it tasted good. The Tuna Cru was delicious. The slice of Tuna was fresh and blended well with the tomato and sauce. I read a lot of good reviews about the Carpacio Carnard and I wanted to try it. It was a disappointment. The dish just tasted too greasy. The pied de couhon was the worst main dish I have ever eaten. The meat had an odor that made me think I was eating lamb. We sent the dish back barely touched with the exception of the mashed potatoes. It is very rare that I cannot eat a dish put in front of me. No matter how bad it tastes. I was very disappointed. The beer was warm but it helped soak up the grease that was sitting in my stomach and remove the foil smell from the Pied De Couchon dish. For some reason, the coffee tasted sour.

Grand total: $93.38
Summary: Food not worth the hype. I would go back and try the seafood
