Hermès
014 Jean-Talon W. Acadie or Jean-Talon métro. Bus 92

Tel. 272-3880. Open every day, 11 a.m. to 4 a.m. $40 for two before retsina, taxes and service. Table d'hôte: $8.75—$14.75 (noon and evening).
Ask any cigar-smoking Greek in Park Ex what the best restaurant in the area is, and he'll invariably send you to Hermès—thirty-five years of loyal service and still ticking, rather well, in fact. This post-newdepression enterprise welcomes chocolate cops on night duty and taxi drivers returning home from the graveyard shift. The heated tables groan with braised meats and stuffed vegetables. Hold up your hand and a waiter will be by your side. You will never pine for the Jardin de Thanatos on Duluth. Nearly a dozen Greek wines. A few veggie platters.

Sample menu: Taramosalata, stqffed vine leaves, marinated octopus, marinated beans, braised veal with onions, roasted goat, stuffed squid, stuffed eggplant, roasted chicken with lemon, moussaka, stuffed cabbage, baklava, galactobouryko, honey yogurt.
