The most prized Italian imports arent always from Prada and Fellini.
Chefs around the world lineup for Italys imported white truffles, and
these diamonds of the kitchen are now being flown into Montreal from the
Northern region of Piedmont. For a nibble, we recommend the truffle
tasting platters (from $25) at BU.
Part chic lounge, part Euro cantina, its the perfect spot for enjoying
these little delicacies. Better still, the sommelier-trained servers can
recommend a matching wine by the glass (we like the 2006 Chianti
Ruffina).
But get there quick. Like the latest Prada It bag, theyll be gone in
less than a week.
Truffle menu at BU until November 30th, 5425 St. Laurent Blvd.,
Montreal, 514-276-0249, www.bu-mtl.com
