Dear all,
An exciting first today - we discovered the local Keg in Old Montreal and couldn't resist! Darren, Vince and Kerry are huge fans so were (again) very surprised that I had never entered the doors of this hallowed restaurant. http://www.kegsteakhouse.com/en/locations/QC/montreal/old-montreal-keg/
I was immediately impressed by the decor - it was chic and sophisticated with a splash of glamour seen in the many photos of famous rock stars splattered throughout the restaurant.
Everyone was adamant that everything would be fantastic and they were not wrong - after we received a fabulous array of beverages, our first culinary treat was the amazing soda bread that arrived in a warm basket accompanied but freshly whipped butter. I knew it was rash to start with bread ( in order to maintain maximum capacity for the dinner) but I couldn't resist. This stuff was delicious!
Then our appetizers... it just kept on coming. Darren and I shared a Caeser Salad and Bacon wrapped scallops *sigh* which were quite simply, sublime.
Vince and Kerry also selected salads for their appetizer ( a pre cursor for the main course - a good tactic for experience 'Keg' regulars)
And then it arrived! After fawning over the menu, I had selected the 'Steak and Surf' ( this was a difficult choice - the menu is extensive and apparently one is never disappointed here) and Darren had chosen another cut of steak which, quite frankly, was bigger than my head.
It was amazing and as you can imagine, we didn't have room for dessert....
We love Montreal!!!!!
