Notable Restaurant Dishes (Page 11)

The restaurant dishes memorialized here were all served to me at one time or another. Most were excellent, and deserve to be remembered, while other were truly awful and are recorded as cautionary tales of what not to do. In either event, please feel free to browse for culinary inspiration.

Oysters Rockefeller at the Oyster Shack

In: Notable Restaurant Dishes

The Oysters Rockefeller at the Oyster Shack in downtown Montreal were Malpeque Oysters baked with Spinach and Parley under a topping of cheese.

Scallops Grilled at the Courtyard

In: Notable Restaurant Dishes

The Scallops Grilled at the Courtyard Restaurant in Ottawa came paired with Sous-Vide Pork Belly in what was a very nicely plated appetizer.

Lamb Kebab at the Devi

In: Notable Restaurant Dishes

The Lamb Kebab at the Devi Indian Restaurant in Montreal featured Lamb marinated in Yoghurt and seasoned with Garam Masala before grilling.

Gamja Jorim at Ali Rang

In: Notable Restaurant Dishes

The Gamja Jorim at the Ali Rang restaurant in Ottawa was a simple, but excellent example of this Korean Banchan of Potato in a sweet glaze.

I have previously posted my own Gamja Jorim Recipe, which describes the basic nature of this very popular Korean side dish, and I have to admit, on balance, that the Ali Rang version was just a bit better than mine, despite it being much simpler in execution.
