Description:
VIEUX QUEBEC. Chez Rabelais has an enviable location, right on the l'escalier Casse-Cou (Breakneck Stairs) – the terrace here is an ideal spot to people watch! The ambience is bustling but friendly and relaxed. Food is traditional French and Italian – top dishes include steak frites and mussels prepared several different ways. Fries are crispy and satisfying, served with a side of mayonnaise, and the salads are lovely. If you prefer, dine in the bistro, which has an abbreviated menu and a slightly more casual atmosphere. |

Description:
VIEUX QUEBEC. Adjacent to and sharing a kitchen with the renowned Le Continental, the Conti Caffè has a sleek, contemporary décor that complements the flavorful Italian cooking. You'll find pizzas on the menu, but the best dishes involve seafood and grilled meats. The seafood antipasto platter, a selection of superbly fresh oceanic tidbits, will leave you enamored, and veal dishes are especially well prepared. A variety of pastas are suitable for a second or main course depending on your appetite, but desserts are excellent so try to leave room for some cassata or sorbet. |

Adding to the place's coziness, the kitchen opens to the seating area, allowing diners to see (and smell) pizzas as they're wood-baked. After your meal, enjoy a smoke in the cigar lounge or even one of their delectable desserts. |

Description:
MONTCALM. In the mood for tasty, authentic Italian pizza with a crust so thin you could read a newspaper through it (well, almost!)? Then head over to Momento, one of the best Italian eateries outside the city walls. Located just off the Grand-allée, this restaurant is renowned citywide for its pizza pies. Pick your poison in terms of toppings: mandarin oranges, sun-dried tomatoes, sautéed veggies – whatever you want. If a full meal is more your speed, Momento also serves excellent osso buco of lamb, seafood linguini and, yes, even scallops. Don't come here and think you can eat light – that would just be an exercise in futility! |
