Top Quality. Haut quality!
Amazing food, and also as important : prepared by an amazing team. The owners really care about their food, products and you can see the passion they have as they create your meal from scratch.
If you are looking for frozen, preservative food : Go somewhere else because you will only get high quality FRESH food at L'Gourmand.
I've had the pizza - insanely good, with the kind of cheese that leaves NO GREASE sitting in a pool on top of your pizza once you get home and open the box. This place is up there with their Pizza, and I mean competitive with real authentic Italian resto pizza. This is not fast food.
Their Fries are some of the best I've had, well cooked and deliciously crunchy. They make Macdoos fries seem like you are eating garbage - wait, its true they are fake / frozen and preserved. Well L'Gourmand's Fries are FRESH and again no joke - literally some of the best I've ever had.
Poutine is ...... just WOW!
The Poutine is in my opnion is better all of our local go to spots. The sauce is great, thick and traditional, but the Fries are just amazing, don't get soggy in the sauce, and the cheese again is top quality.
The Burgers are incredible, not only the smell of them coming out of the chimney by the bike path constantly - but the taste. His grill replicates a BBQ perfectly, try the burger with smoked meat in it!
Sandwiches are big, served on a FRESH baguette, toasted on the grill. I've had both the L'Effiloche (pulled porc) and loved it, stuffed with meat and fresh veggies!
The grilled FULL CHICKEN BREAST sandwich is a great traditional large baguette sandwich - ask for it a bit spicy.
Even the COLESLAW is 10/10 - it makes me wonder what some BBQ chicken restos are really giving you in their small side containers!! Because they do not even come close to the Large container of coleslaw you get for 3$ at L'Gourmand. I can't even believe I'm writting a review about coleslaw! But it was that good!
Do yourself a favor and head on down to Lachine and try L'Gourmand for yourself, meet and be greeted by friendly owners who will make you something that will put a smile on your face and stomach afterwards!
Thank you guys - I will see you soon!
