Waarom dit pareltjes zijn

Van de OpenTable-redactie: Mexican corn and Catalan natural wine are the bedrock of this Outremont favorite that's been named one of Canada's 100 Best Restaurants. Chef Juan Lopez Luna combines authentic techniques and flavours with local Quebec ingredients, grinding his own masa for the tasting menu that might include Oaxacan tetelas with shishito peppers and bacon. Sommelier Lindsay Brennan will help you pair that with a top-notch selection of wines from the Barcelona region. Request a seat at the counter by the kitchen so you can catch Lopez Luna in action.

Beschrijving
(Canada's Top 100)Located off the beaten path in the heart of Outremont, Alma is an intimate 24-seat restaurant showcasing modern Mexican cuisine with authentic techniques and flavours combined with local Quebec ingredients. It is operated by the couple, Chef Juan Lopez Luna et sommelier and wine importer Lindsay Brennan. Alma offers a tasting menu experience (5 or 9 courses) inspired by the concept of "mar y montana", largely influenced by Chef Juan's childhood memories of central Mexico as well as the couple's time spent on the coastal region of Oaxaca. Lopez is one of the few chefs in Canada working with heritage corn from Mexico, making fresh masa in-house each morning and tortillas by hand with his grandmother's traditional tortilla press. The wine list specializes in sunshine-filled Catalan wines from a unique group of winemaker-friends from the Barcelona region. Alma is the Canadian destination for Catalan wines, with a deep cellar of back vintages and rare cuvées.

Deux soirées d’exception au Alma où les chefs Xrysw Ruelas Diaz et Oscar Segundo du célèbre restaurant Xokol (Guadalajara, Mexico) prendront place aux côtés de Juan Lopez Luna en cuisine pour un menu imprégné de leur passion commune pour les traditions de la gastronomie mexicaine et la conservation du maïs ancestral. Grâce au talent de Xrysw et Oscar le Xokol se distingue parmi les plus réputés en Amérique latine. Cette collaboration magique se déploiera lors d’un menu dégustation de 9 services axé sur le maïs ancestral mexicain (nixtamalisé et moulu au Alma) et interprété avec les produits québécois.

Paying ahead of time and choosing menu is great. The experience shifts away from decision making toward pure service. Relaxing. The food itself is some of the best I’ve had in my life.

Quintessential Montreal high hospitality. Service was knowledgeable and unfussy. Good flexibility with the fixed menu options depending on appetite. The tuna tostada was amazing! Execution, flavours and textures told the story. Highly recommend the pairing. They were also VERY accommodating on allergies with a proper heads up before the reservation, which is nice.

A unique food experience, starting with making the reservation. You arrive, having paid for all the food already. There is one item on the menu, which is the 9-course experience (2 of which are desserts). We had a different wine sample with each course and rounded off with a shot of Mescal with the dessert. The latin influences are evident but never dominate the experience. The wines were from Spain and the food was inspired by Mexican cuisine (and surely other cultures as well). We absolutely loved the experience. The restaurant is small and intimate. They can fit around 20 people I think (could be a few more, not sure). If you are looking for a new, exciting food experience, Alma is the place. The thought and craft that has been invested in making the dishes is amazing. We will be back!

Le menu Carte Blanche à 9 services, accompagné de l’accord des vins, a été une expérience culinaire absolument incroyable. Chaque plat était une découverte, parfaitement mis en valeur par les vins soigneusement sélectionnés. Une aventure gustative que je recommande à 100 %. Qué rico!

Excellent informative service both for the food and for the wine pairing. Portions are well-sized (had the 5-course tasting menu). Music level was a bit too loud at first but staff brought it down. A most enjoyable evening.
