World-influenced brunch dishes and cocktails in a chic space
"Shah Kash, the owner of art gallery The Letter Bet and pandemic-sprouted pop-up Bucky Rooster’s, has just debuted a new project featuring international tapas. Eva’s serves up small plates such as salmon sashimi tacos, striploin steak shawarma, and shrimp in aguachile verde, as well as Americana-style fare like chilli con carne and brunch on weekends. Operating out of the same Saint-Henri address where you can get your Bucky’s fried chicken, the dining area is a cavernous space inspired by Star Wars drink den Mos Eisley Cantina." - Valerie Silva
"Since opening in 2020, Bucky Rooster’s has seen some interminable lineups and sold-out nights thanks to the masses of people on the hunt for perfectly fried chicken — either by the bucket or in sandwich form. Its birthday pie (mascarpone cheesecake with sugar cookie crust) has also become a fast favourite. Brunch is available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends." - Daniel Bromberg, Eater Staff
"Slated to open this spring in Saint-Henri at 3981 Notre-Dame West, Evalina’s is a collaboration between Arthur’s Nosh Bar owners Alex Cohen and Raegan Steinberg and Shah Kash and Paulina DiCapua from the neighbouring progressive art space The Letter Bet. The menu will reflect a multitude of global influences, with a particular focus on the historical intersections between Middle Eastern spice-trade routes and Latin America—an approach the team illustrates by noting dishes like tacos al pastor have roots in Lebanese immigration to Mexico. Cohen and Steinberg intend to pull equally from both cuisines and are planning seafood-forward offerings such as octopus, shrimp, and aguachiles, with most ingredients cooked over charcoal on a Japanese yakitori grill. They also plan to serve flatbread tortillas, “Americana-style” desserts, and a range of mezcal, cocktails, and private-import natural wines, while leaning into nighttime service as a new culinary direction for the duo." - Audrey Carleton
