La Chronique Review
It's a pretty place with scarlet walls and black-and-white pictures, but people don't come to Chef Marc De Canck's little 36-seat restaurant for the ambience or for the crowd; they come, quite simply, for the food. Without fuss or fanfare, De Canck has been cranking out the city's most adventurous dishes ever since he opened in 1995. The man doesn't seem capable of compromise or playing safe. His work seamlessly blends lightened French fare with Japanese, Italian, Chinese, and Creole touches. Starters like red tuna tartare might precede milk-fed pig or duck dishes. Lately, he has been using more lobster, foie gras, and veal. To spend hours savoring the food, order the prix-fixe meals—five courses are C$89.
