Restaurant Mastard

"This Quebecois restaurant in Rosemont is nerdy—and I mean that as a compliment. Chef Simon Mathys is hyper-focused on the province’s history and cuisine. He combs through old Quebecois cookbooks and combines this research with his creativity, like churning spring radishes into a cream to pair with raw scallops from Îles-de-la-Madeleine and homemade brioche. You’re likely to be served by Mathys himself, making the tasting menu’s $58 price a little more generous." - ByMehdi Brunet-Benkritly, as told to Mia Leimkuhler
