Opened by the ex-chef of Panache, Bistro B has a decidedly different atmosphere than the fine dining institution, but is still one of the hottest destinations for foodies. Located in the charming Montcalm neighborhood (a ten-minute drive from town), the innovative eatery offers something for those craving a more inventive meal—and trendier environment—than most downtown spots provide. Most dishes are refined, while still being comforting; the menu, scribbled on chalkboard, has previously featured a cream of mushroom risotto and bison tartare with parmesan and truffle, as well as the occasional fish and chips and grilled cheese. The weekend brunch is one of the city’s liveliest.
