At first glance, L'Inconnu seems like a subtle eatery of the French persuasion. In fact, despite the lighthearted atmosphere, this Montreal restaurant serves some of the most appealing---and hearty---meals in town. The décor is austere and subtle: grey walls, a swanky green wax-bowl candle and lights that look much like the silhouette of a traditional Arab headdress that Lawrence of Arabia might well have worn. The food could feed heartily the hungriest Quebec habitant, an eastern Canadian fisherman or even a northern hunter. The butternut squash soup is served in a small glass, and hot bread comes with light chunks of melting cheddar cheese. We suggest the roasted sweetbreads, bursting with the flavors of the marinade and accompanying crispy mushrooms, and the main course of a local lamb trio. Intensity and heavy fare are the hallmarks of this restaurant.
