Tri Express Montreal

Special secret sauce

About me Some will tell you that I’m a designer, others a DJ. Some will tell you that I garden too much while others will point out that I should stop posting photos of my food all the time.

""Tri Express" in Montreal has divided fans of oriental food: this restaurant has things like sushi pizza that are... well... not bad at all!"

There has been a lot of talk about this not-so-well kept secret in Montreal. I've heard a lot of different comments about this chef and his Vietnamese inspired creations. First, there is a strong feeling about tradition when it comes to Japanese food. This guy injected a lot of funk into his ideas, and not all of us agree. But if you dare to taste, I'm pretty sure that you cannot deny the greatness and you'll become an addict, so watch out.

Mr. Tri Du's special recipe, his sushi "À-la-Tri" is a true sensation in town. It's a kind of fish paste mixed with tempura, caviar, finely chopped chives and the famous secret sauce. He even came up with a sushi pizza that is, well, not bad at all. But for the purist, there are all the classics like sashimi, rolls, hosomaki, miso soup... but that's not the way to go. For the full experience, order the funk. And get infected by greatness.

Tip: cash only!

About me Some will tell you that I’m a designer, others a DJ. Some will tell you that I garden too much while others will point out that I should stop posting photos of my food all the time. I also heard that I’m a wine enthusiast and a good cook, that’s nice. Some still think that I have a band, which would be nice actually. But these days, I spend hours in my studio, making music for the dance-floor. I guess that’s why they invented the moto jack of all trades, master of none. Totally me. Why Montreal? After travelling quite extensively around the world...

Saint Sushi Bar

Wanna eat some Marvin Gaye sushi?

"Saint Sushi Bar" in Montreal is not a traditional Japanese sushi restaurant - rather, its focus is on playful, hiphop, 'gangsta' reinterpretations.
