Marché EPICURE..... anyone went there yet?

Nice place for mainly eastern European products - they have a lot of imported stuff and also a counter with cold cuts and sausages - also, they have different breads and some cooked meals as well. I would say its like a small Adonis for Russian, Romanian, Hungarian, Austrian and German products.

I was happy to see another European grocery store in Montreal when I went there a few weeks ago and I will for sure go back !

Alpenhaus restaurant

I had the same experience a few weeks ago - I had a coupon for a three course meal for 2 people with different options from their menu.

When the bill came they had charged me the tip based on the maximum that we could have ordered with their options.

For example, the maximum would have been a value of 150 $, but we had stuff worth a lot less than that, therefore the tip should have been accordingly.

Anyways, when you have a coupon you should tip based on the value you get, not on what you pay for the coupon.

Charging the tip automatically for 2 people pissed me off and I wont return there for sure, also because the service was very slow and the food was not that good as well.

Deutschland

Right now there are not that many German options in Montreal.

There is Checkpoint Charlie on St. Laurent that opened a few months ago - no idea how good it is. (4433 Saint Laurent Boulevard)

Like I wrote last week in another thread there is Suzys bakery in Pierrefonds that has some German dishes also that you can eat there - I only tried her baked goods so far and they were great. (15450 Boul Pierrefonds)

Boucherie Atlantique have some meals as well with a small counter where you can eat.
(5060 Chemin de la Côte-des-Neiges)

Dutch chocolate letters in Montreal?

When you say pepernoten, do you mean what we call "Pfeffernüsse" in Germany?
I think I saw them last weekend at Loblaws (Sherbrooke East / Place Versailles) in the section for christmas cookies. A good alternative is Salamico (1980 Rue Lucien-Thimens) - there they have them for sure.

Poutineville

I went there last week and I tried a crushed / mashed fries poutine - it was great (I added bacon, tomatoes and regular sauce and cheese) - but ! for a takeout of 2 poutines I had to wait 35 minutes - they have to get a lot faster !!

Looking for fresh okra

I got some 2 months ago at the Loblaws on Sherbrooke east - no idea if they always have it in stock or if okra might be a seasonal product
