Melting Pot

It was bound to happen. Now you can add Kosher-Italian to the list of Montreal’s daring new fusion joints.

But don’t expect red-checkered tablecloths at Il Conté in Monkland Village. With its all-white modern décor, this lounge gets our heartiest Mazel Tov! The alluring menu features over a dozen tempting pizzas, but we love the towering meat lasagna ($14.95), cheesy eggplant parmesan ($13) and pizza al tonno served with an egg in the middle ($14.95).

Could Austrian-Asian be just around the corner? Bring it on.

Il Conté Lounge, 5557 Monkland Ave., Montreal, 514-439-4333.
