Great Chinese food in Little Maghreb – Kim Jian

by Jason May 13, 2024

written by Jason

What’s your Montreal restaurant red flag? Word of mouth? Could it be a dirty washroom? Google reviews of 3 stars or less? Restaurants “reviewed” by influencers with “DM for COLLAB” in their bios? It’s tough finding diamonds int he rough without going to experience a place for myself. I recently discovered my Montreal restaurant GREEN flag. Something that someone else might deem as a red flag is something I actually appreciate. I asked the waitress for suggestions and not only did she suggest their specialty items, but literally told me to AVOID certain dishes on their menu. This week’s hidden gem, I venture into Little Maghreb for some awesome Chinese food at Restaurant Kim Jian.

Montreal’s Best Malaysian Street Food at Restaurant Canada Best

So what’s a “hidden gem” you ask? Great question. Wikipedia defines it as, “Something possessing a value or beauty that is not immediately apparent, which therefore has received far less recognition than it deserves.” In my world, insert the words “delicious” and you’ve got my mandate in finding the best eateries the city has to offer. Sure, writing about the newest and trendiest restaurants are fun, but what’s even funner is putting you on to places that no one talks about because they’re not trending or have a fun PR marketing hashtag. The places where the food is honest and the people are humble and more often than not the back table is occupied by a kid doing homework or grandma sorting vegetables.

This week I checked out a quaint mom and pop shop in Parc-Ex serving up delicious Malaysian dishes. I’m excited to talk about this place where not only do they fill out the criteria of being a hidden gem, but possibly Canada’s hidden gem – check out Restaurant Canada Best.

Montreal’s Highest Dumplings – Everest Momo

Hello… is it me you’re looking for? I’m going to cut to the chase – I took some time off. For myself. To re-centre and re-calibrate my mental health. It’s something I’m working on and I am here. I’m happy to report that I’m doing great and have resisted the urge to purchase stainless steel emotional-support water tumblers to coordinate with my daily outfits. So that’s that. Anyways. I’ve been active on social if you’re following me there. If not, you’ll find me on Instagram.

I’ve been scouring the city trying to get back to my blogging roots. Roots that have been firmly planted in the Montreal restaurant scene for over 16 years (omg!). Trying to find and bring you local eateries that are completely off the radar. I’m really excited to tell you about this actual hidden gem I discovered recently. What do you know about

Nepalese cuisine? Montreal’s Nepalese cuisine scene isn’t popping off the rails. If you’re like me and only have limited knowledge of what the food is all about, let me learn you some facts off the top. All you need to know is that it’s delicious. A quaint spot in Cote des Neiges, serving delicious Nepalese cuisine and treats – Everest Momo.
