Tropical Hawaii

From the outside looking in it’s like you see a little indoor paradise. It’s very eye appealing especially if the time is cold and windy. As you walk in it’s like you’ve stepped onto a tropical island. there is a lot to look at. The menu includes a picture of everything, and for a while I just stood in my place and stared at all the mouth watering pictures. The restaurant had perfected the Hawaiian theme. There were palm trees everywhere and the walls were a painted to look like a beach. The atmosphere was inviting and soothing. Made me feel like I was on vacation. This restaurant is the type of restaurant anyone will enjoy. The staff was really nice she helped me make by order by giving me a brief summary about what was in each of the drinks, which was very helpful because there was a lot to choose from and I wanted to choose the right one for me.

I ordered a drink called “Cocktail Hawaii”. In it has a variety of fruits from bananas, pineapples, apple, canto lop, strawberry, kiwi and mango mixed in Hawaiian juice which is made from milk, strawberries and banana. On top you get to choose your choice of gelato or ashata. They by far have the best gelato flavors like pina colada gelato, Hawaiian gelato, coconut, caramel, and cheesecake etc. They all sound delicious, I went with the cheesecake one. The drink was delicious excellent, the best cocktail I ever had and was fulling too. The drink was fruity and refreshing. The cheesecake gelato on top was one of the best parts of the drink. It was so good, it was sweet and refreshing I loved it. This is definitely a restaurant I’ll be visiting often. Come dressed casual no need for anything fancy. If you like exotic drinks then you need to come and try one of the drinks here you’ll be amazed.

This restaurant is known for their healthy breakfast. Their dishes mainly consist of fruits. For breakfast they have a variety of crepes and waffles to choose from. They also sell gelato, smoothies and cocktails. For one dish it’s almost ten dollars and for one of their delicious cocktails it’s about seven dollars more. It’s under twenty dollars but the price of just one cocktail is pretty expensive but it’s worth every penny. The décor is really pretty there were palm trees and everything to make you feel like you were in Hawaii. The atmosphere is relaxing and soothing. The service is fast and friendly. The lady that served me was really sweet and was a great in helping me choose my order.

Star Of India

This restaurant as you can tell is Indian cuisine and located on St. Catherine  Downtown. They sell all sorts of indian dishes. If you like indian food  or your not familiar with it but would like to try it i suggest you come her. With great service, friendly staff and good food you're guaranteed to have the perfect dining experience. The decor is Inidan themed of course and they  do a great job of it. The atmosphere is warm and cozy. The food is delicious and full of taste.

The decor of the restaurant is really Indian. The walls are a faded pinkish colour. Their is alot of Indian decorations and pictures on the walls. The chairs are wooden and the tables are squares with white and brown table cloth over them. The pictures on the wall looked like very ancient some of them looked like hand made carpets that told ancient stories. On the second floor where i was sitting there was perfect view of a beautiful Indian mannequin wearing a sari. The place was really clean and neat. The bathroom on the other hand was one of those single bathrooms and you could hear every single noise coming from the kitchen. Not a bathroom you want to spend to long on in i found myself rushing to get out. If you're planning on coming here casual dressing is more for this restaurant. This seems like the type of restaurants that would attract more adults that teens due to the cozy and warm atmosphere.

I ordered the butter chicken dish with a side of white rice and nan bread. It didn't take too long to come probably took around twenty minutes. The waiter was really nice and great at explaining the different types of dishes. The butter chicken was really good and tasted sweet. The butter chiken was tasteful and went perfect with the white rice. The nan bread was thin and baked to perfection. I really enjoyed this dish it really good and satisfying, it was my first time going to an Indian restaurant and i've never really been a fan of it but after the dish i had today i love Indian food. The dessert was even better i ordered an ice cream called "Kulfi" which tasted like sweet mango and it was one of the best ice creams i've ever tasted! This restaurant wasn't that expensive and the dish was worth every penny.

Kam Shing

Kam Shing is Chinese and Szechwan restaurant located on cote des neiges. They have a variety of different Chinese or Szechwan food to choose from. What I liked about this restaurant was that they serve a lot of food. The service is fast an they also do delivery. The atmosphere can get a bit noisy at times, but if you like real culinary Chinese food I suggest you come here.

I ordered the shrimp fried rice and the mixed vegetable chicken. It took around 20 minutes before I received it. Everything comes separate, the rice in one bowl and the meat in the other. One of the things I noticed was that instead of serving free water, They actually served Chinese herbal tea. When I first took a sip of I didn’t like it at al. Then something weird happened …I took another sip and another and another and another. The tea was soothing warmed up my tummy I actually ended up really liking it. I’m not a tea person but since then I find myself often buying Chinese herbal tea at the grocery store. The rice was hot and nice and every grain was cooked to perfection. The shrimps were small and their wasn’t anything special about it. It went well with the fried rice though. The chicken was pretty good, it was served in a bowl of vegetables like carrots and broccoli. Even the vegetables tasted good to me and I usually don’t like vegetables. The meat of the chicken was succulent and tasty. The sauce that came with it in the bowl of chicken and vegetables made it taste even better.

The décor could’ve been better for such a good restaurant. I found it very boring and plain. Their were no pictures on the wall or anything. The tables didn’t even have table clothes on them and those tables really needed some. The tables were plain nothing pretty. The atmosphere wasn’t really cozy or anything, it was a bit noisy at times. The staff were pretty boring and plain weren’t good at explaining what the dish contained of, the English and French was horrible pretty hard to understand anything they say. They just looked like they didn’t want to be bothered. The older staff seemed more experienced and were more outgoing. The price isn’t bad for the amount of food you receive. The meat, rice/noodles , soups etc all have their own price ranging from ten to twenty dollars per entrée. This type of restaurant is more for groups or families and the dress is casual. Overall great restaurant food wise.
