I first heard of Tkrestobar through the internet because of one thing: the RAMEN BURGER. The next thing I did was search the place and found out it was really near my job. So of course I had to try it.\n\nWhen I got there, I felt like it looked a lot like the Momofuku noodle bar in New York and I was anticipating great things. I ordered fried calamari, the ramen burger and had a chocolate tarte for dessert. The fried calamari was different from other places, but it's not one of my favorites. And now the ramen burger. Visually stunning, but the taste left me hanging. Texture with the noodles was great, but I would have liked it a bit spicier and found it a little blunt. Luckily, I had a leftover of chipotle mayo from the fries and added it to the burger, which made it a bit better. The burger isn't the best, but it's worth trying. For dessert, I had a chocolate tarte, which they served with almond chantilly and dulce de leche. It was ok. My brother had a lava cake, which was served with black bean ice cream. Interesting combination, and surprising taste.\n\nI went back a few times to try out all their menu, and I find it interesting that they often change desserts, which are written on boards on the walls. Make sure to read all of them, some are interesting picks, such as salmon tartar tacos. Also, probably one of the best fried chicken in town. They also have a filipino menu, but I never tried it.\n\nOne interesting thing about this place is the drinks. I had an amaretto sour, and the ice came in shaped like litchis, which I found cute.\n\nOne big negative point for me is their service. The staff is very small, ans when the restaurant is in a rush, getting food can take a while. Weirdly, the place can be packed with a line-up, or empty. Maybe it's because of the location (near metro plamondon). Also, make sure you reserve before you go. I once went during their opening hours, but the restaurant was closed. \n\nOverall, the food is great for the price, and it's a great place to try out for cuisine that sticks out of the ordinary.
