Dining room at Cava by Costas Spiliadis, Montréal, canadaThis restaurant by noted Montreal restaurateur Costas Spiliadis works because of first-rate ingredients and home-style preparation. The only difference is that at Cava those elements are simply given a higher-end context. The culinary adventure benefits from Spiliadis’ three-decades of restaurant projects in Montreal, New York and Athens. Cava sources only free-range meats, and the wine list includes a host of full-bodied private Greek imports from the northern part of the country, which are surprisingly rich. Don’t be surprised by the small portion of the avgolemono soup; its lush and creamy texture sets the tone for a hardy meal. Vegetarians will delight in the bougiourdi, with its spiced, melting light feta cheese and green peppers, while manataria and its assortment of mushrooms is so robust that it could satisfy a steak fan. The epirotiki salad, with white cabbage, grilled pancetta and dill dressing, is a refreshing pause before the main dish. We recommend the rib-eye steak, aged in-house. Remember: The fare is what your Greek grandmother might have prepared; a little fat or some extra salt are part of the journey here.
