From the previous 7 visits to Montreal, this was one of our favorite vegetarian spots. We loved the food and the table in the corner, where one can sit cross legged and the kids can play with the many toys while waiting for the food. Yesterday we went again - walking all the way form the Old Port in the rain. We were short on time and asked for something that is probably ready and quicker to serve, like a soup. I guess our English wasn't clear enough as that wasn't communicated at all. No we could understand what is the soup of the day as our Canadian-French is pretty bad. Never mind - decided to order something in addition to the soup as there was only 1 other table with 2 people who came after us. They were served first though. Our soup came extremely hot. The waitresses were just switching shift, which could have been the reason why we had the cups from the previous customers half full on our table all the time. And never got our own. The food took waaaaay too long to prepare (which we usually don't mind). We aksed for taking it out and kept waiting. At the end I went to pay and it turned out it was ready and they didn't tell us. So that's for service - very disappointing this time :-( The food? The soup was good (why heat it so much though?). The Indian dish was great! Love every grain of rice in it :-). The noodles on the other hand - heavily burned. Threw most of them away. Guess not going again :-( Not sure if it was our English which wasn't welcome, but we were quite sad after the visit of what we considered our favorite MTL spot :-(
