The “Champagne Box” is a concept imagined by the W Montreal hotel, in collaboration with Moët & Chandon.
Posted at 1:00 p.m.
This small, ephemeral space, intimate and sumptuous, can accommodate up to six people in comfortable velvet sofas and does not skimp on the ostentatious decoration with its floral arrangements, its rugs in imitation zebra skin and its furniture embellished with gilding.
Undeniably, you feel like a VIP in this perfect place for a chic champagne tasting. We can soak our lips in three Moët & Chandon champagnes: Impérial Brut, Impérial Brut — Rosé and Grand Vintage Brut (or rosé) 2013.
Lasting one hour, the experience, offered until June by reservation only, costs $95 per person and includes a few snacks, with the possibility of ordering, as an extra, oysters or a plate of antipasti. A very nice experience, which will certainly please lovers of fine bubbles.
Are you getting hungry? Then drop by the hotel’s pretty restaurant, the Tbsp., which has recently offered a brand new menu, Festina, consisting of several services of plates to share, in a friendly atmosphere: octopus carpaccio with crispy polenta, squash and burrata panzanella, fresh pasta, braised beef short rib with creamy polenta, etc.
Friendly advice: prefer the Festina formula! (two courses and sweets, at $45 per person) to the Festa formula! (three courses, plus an entre-deux and a dessert, at $85 per person), far too copious for two people, or else, share it with several people!
