PSA if you like pigs and foie

I was browsing at chapters today and I saw that Au Pied de Cochon has released a cookbook. For those that aren't aware, it's a fairly unique restaurant in Montreal that's always gotten good reviews. The best way to describe it is comfort food with an overdose of foie gras. If you buy entire lobes of foie gras *cough* piobaire *cough* and want to try something different, I can tell you that the restaurant is quite good and that some of the recipes are probably worth a try.

My wife took a picture of my pregnant belly after eating there, and upon seeing it I immediately hit erase. Great spot though.

A disgusting grease-fest. Even worse than most places in Montreal (hard to believe in a city known as the capital of smoked meat).

Man, I used to love going for late night sandwiches at Schwartzs. Always asked for the extra fatty meat. Mmmmmmmm.

Well, that's pretty harsh since most people, even fairly picky reviewers, tend to like it. It's definitely not a light meal though.

It's one of those "good once or twice" places.
