MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking

This quaint spot from Chef Ryan Brosseau pays homage to his French-Canadian mémé, Margaret, and fittingly, resembles a grandma's house. If you're envisioning a blue-painted façade, white-trim windows, and framed paintings all set below a decorative ceiling, you're starting to get the picture here. A small bar in the back and engaging staff keep things homey and abuzz.This is a French-Canadian menu that goes beyond poutine and cheese curds. Comfort and decadence are at the heart of such shareable plates as an heirloom tomato salad starring fromage blanc, pickled shallots and dressed with black garlic-ice wine vinegar. Nanaimo bars are a sweet and salty confection with a graham cracker crumb, cocoa powder and walnut—all finished with chocolate ganache.
