Belle soirée à L'Échaudé! Nous avons pris le menu carte blanche & n'avons pas été déçus. Seulement, tous les plats (sauf le dessert qui, en passant, était aussi délicieux que surprenant, gracieuseté de l'ail noir) étaient axés sur la viande; il aurait été plaisant d'avoir une entrée végétarienne. Ça demeure toutefois un commentaire personnel. Le service était un peu rapide mais discret & le serveur était bien sympathique. Nous avons beaucoup aimé notre soirée, qui donne le goût de découvrir le menu régulier du restaurant!

Truly a charming bistro - but not your average bistro food or service. Alain (our waiter) was knowledgeable & funny adding a touch of French humor. Portions were creative & generous but don't skip the dessert. The mango tart with coconut ice cream & "snowflake" coconut tuille had us scraping the plate. A bit tricky to find but worth the effort.

We love this restaurant, having gone for the first time last year. I loved the way our waiter spoke first in French followed by the English translation or the other way around.. our dishes were innovative & delicious, the salmon tartare & sweetbreads are memorable. We will return I am sure.

I'm going to start off by saying that I'm never going to find Salmon tartare as good as theirs ever again (the curry ginger sesame one)... & l'm a little sad about that. Now for my review.

I can only say it was a pleasant experience from the moment I stepped in until the moment I was saying my goodbyes. Every staff we dealt with were super pleasant & most importantly were not annoying. It was a perfect balance of meeting our needs without them being in our faces.
The fact that it wasn't a big & rowdy resto, was even better. I didn't need to fight for attention nor did I need to feel like I should pop two pills & put in ear plugs.. I know i'm exaggerating, but, when it gets loud & rowdy, it can be very unpleasant.

As for food/drinks,

1) Entrée: Goat cheese with dried tomatoes. Yum. I have to say it was really good, & they gave a generous size on a plate. I may not order it again only because I am curious about other foods. This may sound a little crazy because I am not sure how exactly to word it but.. Thankfully they put a small salad on the side of the cheese. The tomato & cheese was very "warm" & I needed something fresh like a salad to cool the mouth.

2) Salmon tartare: omgiwanttodrive3hourstohavesomemoretartar. Like I mentioned it was the sesame/ginger tartare. It was really really really good. The only down side.. I wish there were a bit more of it. & by a bit, I mean a lot more of it.

3) flank steak/Bavette: PRO: ohh my my my. When I told them I wanted it Medium, with no blood on my plate... they really made sure to cook it that way. Not every day you can find places that know how to properly cook steak. The portion size was perfect
CON: I wish I had known that they put lots of caramelized onions on top of the steak. I removed them & my boyfriend happily ate them... but that was my only itty bitty comment I had about that.

4) Veal with lard & a melting a piece of brie (not on menu.. special of the night or something). was AMAZING. everything about it was great & you get a good size portion of meat.

5) I've been craving a good crème brulee because I have given up on ordering it out.. Echaudé did not fail me. Every bite was like tasting a little piece of heaven in my mouth.. I don't want to talk it up or get peoples hopes up. But I truly enjoy good quality food & this truly hit the spot.

6) Lastly, the variety of wine is incredible. There is something for everyone in there. no joke.. I feel like I've walked in a fancy looking SAQ.

In conclusion, I must go back.
