Les Vivres

Do you know "Les Vivres"? Well you should! Les Vivres is one of the greatest vegan restaurant in Montreal! I already went twice this summer and wrote down what I ate to make a full assessment and, also, I have this new theory; I want to try new plates and new flavors and I can't do that if I dont remember what I had the time before! Hense the writing down.

The first time I went, I had the dahl soup, the portobello burger plate and a brownie. My boyfriend ate the soupe du jour, a borsch like cold soup, the bol dragon and a smoothie.

The second time, I ordered the soupe du jour, a carrot and ginger potage, the tempeh burger plate and... a brownie. I'm honestly a killer for brownies, I can't taste anything else until I get really sick and tired of eating brownies, something that has rarely been seen.

The dahl soup was good. Tasted very indian and was a little spicy. I really enjoyed it but my boyfriend liked it way more than I did. He really didn't like the borsch like soup. I know myself and am quite aware of my dislike of cold soups, but he tried it anyway and he's now with me on that one. The revelation was the carrot and ginger soup. I could have eaten 4 bols! The subtile aromas of the ginger mixed with the sweetness of cooked carrot is to die for. LOVE it!

The portobello burger plate is composed of a portobello burger, home made chipotle ketchup, home made cole slaw and roasted potatoes. Delicious.
