The tastefully decorated restaurant at 4350 rue St. Denis is famous for their huge selection of over 100 beers, and all you can eat mussels and fries from Monday to Wednesday. Unfortunately I couldn't time my visit for that Belgian binge. I had to satisfy myself with the Belgian-style white beer on tap, Cheval Blanc, which is brewed by local brewers Les Brasseurs RJ.
Their menu had lots of goodies with beer as part of the ingredients. I tried a modern twist on the traditional Quebec tourtière–a Cajun buffalo meat pie covered in a Hoegaarden witbier cream sauce, served with roast vegetables, and a side of fries with spicy garlic mayonnaise. All very tasty, and they weren''t stingy with the garlic mayo–there was more than enough to dip all the fries. You might think the fries were just a vehicle to carry the addictive spicy garlic mayo–and you would be right!
For dessert I tried the McAuslan apricot wheat ale. Another local brew, it's got a refreshingly dry apricot flavor.
