Les Voyageurs
(Restaurants - Canadian)
900 Rene Levesque Blvd Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth, Montréal  H3B 4A5 • 514-861-3511 • 800-257-7544
Distance: ~11 m *
        Description: Although this lounge does a brisk business in the evenings accommodating patrons who come to drink, socialize, and listen to live piano music, it's also a good bet for lunch. Seafood dishes and fresh oysters are a major draw, along with the kitchen's "cuisine of the world." Les Voyageurs knows that time is at a premium, so it guarantees efficient service and quick turnaround for business people who come to dine at lunch. Its downtown location also means that it's convenient and easy to negotiate.

Desserts are just as complex and rewarding. Try the seven-course tasting menu for a solid overview of the chef's talents.

Le Club Chasse et Pêche
(Restaurants - Canadian)
423 rue St-Claude, Montréal  H2Y 3B6 • 514-861-1112
Distance: ~1.579 km *
        Description: Despite its rustic-sounding name, this widely praised restaurant is stylish and clubby, with ample amounts of dark wood and leather upholstery. Indeed, there's not a stuffed grizzly or mounted sturgeon in sight. The menu, however, features an abundance of game and fish, in sometimes wacky-sounding presentations that never fail to impress critics and foodies alike. Try scallops with fennel purée and lemon emulsion, or seared bison with physalis, cashews and chocolate. Desserts are beautiful and worth every calorie.

Chez L'Épicier
(Restaurants - Canadian)
311 rue St-Paul est, Montréal  H2Y 1H3 • 514-878-2232
Distance: ~1.640 km *
        Description: If you're craving quality food, simply prepared and served in casual surroundings, head over to this fashionable eatery. Fresh ingredients are given prominence, and there are no repetitions; each dish is carefully and uniquely constructed. Enjoy the pan-fried Marieville foie gras escalope served as a napoleon with gingerbread, butternut squash purée, shallot compote with dried prunes, duck juice vinaigrette and allspice. The cuisine is creatively Québécois, meaning that, while many of the components are produced locally, it also takes advantage of French techniques. It's also a good place to pick up take-out for the comfort of your own home.
