Racines Bistro Bar a Vin

We decided to try this new resto not far from my partners home. Our long time area favorite restaurant (la Maudit Française) has moved from the area and we wanted to discover a place we could have a similar quality meal and service. The former restaurant was a bring your own wine and Racine Bistro boasts of being a wine bar.

We were both very pleased with the meal and the fabulous selection of wines to choose from. The focal point of the menu is root vegetables and most of the dishes incorporate them. But these are definately not the root vegetables your mother made you Eat. We tried the roasted cauliflower main that was excellent, served with a tangy chimichuri. The beef cheeks were
delicious and served with a crunchy root vegetal chip for a wonderful textural pairing that I very much enjoyed. Our starters were equally awesome.

I wanted to try wines that would be different, that would enhance my palate. I have been learning wine tasting with the SAQ and want to challenge my palate and knowledge base. The waitress (very knowledgable of her products) suggested a few options which did not disappoint. I had what to date is my favorite Rose ever which paired well with my lobster perogie appetizer. The other wines were all equally appealing and we were able to taste them prior to selecting them. The glass size and pour were generous.

Finally for the service I refer to the website of the restaurant. I was so very pleased with the personalized service we received. To quote the website:
« attentionné et généreux. Le chef propriétaire, Alex Rolland, et son équipe vous promettent une expérience gastronomique inoubliable. »
Our waitress Annie was phenomenal and made us feel like we were her only customers in this relatively very busy spot. Attention to detail was evident.

Great place gratz to the Chef owner Alex Rolland, we loved the EXPERIENCE!!
