When Art came to stay we nipped over to St Henri
and had lunch at Sumac. Think ‘middle Eastern’ cuisine along the lines
of Yalla Yalla or Comptoir Libanais in London. Until Sumac opened there was really nothing like this available in Montreal. Cutting to the chase, everything was
awesome and I already can’t wait to go back.
The menu is on a big board, you order at the
counter before finding a table, which feels a tad too casual but it’s
really busy come lunchtimes so I see why they do it. Will be heading back for dinner soon to
check out if things are any different in the evening.
We shared the falafel ($12) and the beef kefta ($14) plates which come with your choice of 2 salads from the pretty extensive salad menu, the best pita I've ever had, hummus and pickles. The main dishes (falafs, keftas, chicken shawarma and a veggie aubergine option) can also be ordered as a pita or 'family style' (I'm not sure what this means exactly). We also shared sumac fries, having been advised that the hummus fries are huge and would push us over the edge. Prices are very reasonable and portions are large. This is North America after all!
Just looking at these pictures and thinking about
how good the food was is making me want to get back down there today,
and look at this, they even have a website, something of a rarity in
Montreal. Good work Sumac.

I've explored some fantastic places recently, but now I'm on the hunt for a BBQ restaurant near me that can match up to these vibrant dining experiences! From the savory burger at Bad Egg to the delicate flavors at Toasted, and even the sumptuous Middle Eastern cuisine at Sumac, these eateries brought an array of delightful tastes. Any recommendations for a BBQ spot that brings this kind of diverse, flavorful dining?
