On my last evening of a recent trip to Montreal, my niece and I decided to head out for a late dinner.  We really didn’t have a place in mind so jumped on a subway to St. Denis Street to see what struck our fancy.  We happened upon Juliette & Chocolate, at which point Bekah said she had wanted to try it and I realized that I had seen one of their salads on a friend’s Facebook page and I too had it on my “must try” list.

I had the namesake Juliette & Chocolate salad which was an interesting combination of flavours.  Mixed greens with strawberries, pear, goat cheese and a balsamic and chocolate salad dressing, it was topped with a crouton like object made by swirling buckwheat crepe batter in a hot pan.  I was pleased to find that it was not overly sweet but instead the dark chocolate notes and the vinegar was a nice combination with the crunch fruit and the creamy chevre.

Bekah selected the buckwheat crepe topped with pesto, walnuts and goat cheese. We were both satisfied with our choices.

Love-that is all.
