On Montreal Korean Restaurant Maison de Seoul, Chef Deck says:
Right next to the Claremont restaurant in Westmount, is a little Montreal Korean gem. It’s a nice spot to go, if you’re sick of the regular bistro food in the area. It’s not the best of the best (by the way also a fine movie [...]

L’Assommoir Restaurant Review

July 11th, 2007 · 7 Comments

On L’Assommoir Restaurant Montreal Chef Deck says:

Pho Lien Restaurant Chef Deck Says:
Mr. Pho Lien, you’re in my top 5 Montreal Vietnamese restaurant favorites for good reason. You’re always consistently good and in my opinion have the best lemon grass chicken in Montreal (except for maybe Hoai Huong on Victoria, Montreal). All your tonkinese soups are great, especially your weekend spicy soup [...]

Chef Deck says:
Le Pistol, why do you have to make such fine sandwiches when all I want to do is hate you for your American Apparel tie dyed t-shirts? You irk me but I always come back because you put horseradish in your Roast Beef sandwich. I must say that even though you haven’t changed [...]
