Now Open: East

0

MONTREAL — East has opened in the new Renaissance Montreal hotel.

The latest concept from Groupe Satori celebrates Asian cuisine — blending East-Asian influences with western modernity. Designed by Montreal-based CAMDI, the 132-seat venue features wood, textured glass and leather accents for a vintage-inspired, yet contemporary feel.

The menu at East honours Asian culinary traditions, championing proper technique and authentic flavours in dishes such as beef tataki with avocado purée, daikon, garlic chips and ponzu sauce ($21); lobster Kung Pao with Gailan, peanuts, onions, Sichuan peppercorn, tatsoi and steamed rice ($25); Cantonese chow mein with bok choy, broccoli, shitake, bamboo shoot, water chestnut, baby corn, shrimps and char siu ($27); and a selection of dim sum, including tai chi gow with scallops, pork and snow pea leaves.
