An attractive storefront is sometimes all it takes to make us want to walk into a restaurant. Conversely, some more unassuming establishments may not look like much on the outside, but they hide unexpected treasures. Le Dim Sum Gourmand, in P\u00e2quis, is a perfect example of this. Despite the white walls, adorned with a few Chinese illustrations, the dining room exudes a warm atmosphere, enhanced by the staff\u2019s welcoming demeanor. We take a seat on the terrace to explore the menu at this Chinese restaurant. <\/p>\n

Dim sum<\/h2>\n

With such an evocative name, dim sum is simply a must-have to start our meal. From a wide selection, we choose the duck and curry dumplings, followed by the traditional pork xiao long bao, the chef\u2019s specialty. The dumplings are filled with a juicy filling of shredded duck. Tender on the palate and beautifully enhanced by the curry, this dish turns out to be a delightful surprise that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the meal. As for the pork baos, they are remarkably tender, with a soft and light texture. The caramelized pork, served with a rich sauce, rounds out the dish perfectly. It\u2019s hard to resist the urge to go back for more, but we\u2019ll stop there for these first few bites. <\/p>\n

We continue our lunch with a traditional Chinese dish: Sichuan-style sliced beef. A generous serving, where the meat is paired with a wonderful variety of vegetables, all served with a bowl of white rice. Carrots, cauliflower, black mushrooms, and scallions are mixed with tender pieces of beef. The sauce, delicately flavored with Sichuan pepper, adds a wonderful depth to the dish. The conversation around the table slows down\u2026 Sometimes, words aren\u2019t necessary when you\u2019re sharing a good meal. <\/p>\n

Sweet Treat<\/h2>\n

One item had already caught our eye the first time we looked at the menu: \u201ccream ravioli.\u201d It\u2019s very tempting. Four steamed ravioli, filled with pastry cream, bring this journey through China to a sweet and light conclusion. <\/p>\n

Behind its unassuming facade, Dim Sum Gourmand treated us to a delightful experience, marked by the delicate flavors of the dumplings, the generous portions, and the originality of the desserts. It\u2019s a place where culinary expertise is enjoyed without pretension, and where we\u2019ll gladly return to continue exploring the menu. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
