As Montréal's only Tibetan eatery, Chez Gatsé is a must-see, and you don't have to be a Mahayana Buddhist to eat momos. Certain specialities—the blue cheese soup, and the typical salted butter tea spring to mind—take a little getting used to, but hey, you only live once. A very friendly place, and a model of cultural integration: Shigatse is the second largest city in Tibet. A lovely terrace underneath the trees, and steamed tinmos bread. All employees are Tibetan. Mr. Kashi, the owner, can regale you with tales of Tibet.
Sample menu: Lentil soup, vegetarian noodles, cheese or vegetable momos, Lhassa chicken, strawberries or kiwis and cream.
