This was the dining highlight of our week in Canada. I don't know how we stumbled across SEb, but am glad that we decided to book a table for our last night in Mont Tremblant.
I'm not usually one for tasting menus, being a pescatarian and all around picky eater. I did appreciate that they not only offered two tasting menus, a 4 and 7 course (each with the option of wine pairings), and that they didn't require the whole table to opt into the tasting menu. I caved to peer pressure and opted in for the tasting menu despite being someone who likes to know exactly what they are ordering; our server had me convinced they would cater to our dietary restrictions and food allergies. I was not disappointed.
We started out with champagne and our first course, an oyster duo. One was served cold and one served hot; oysters are not something I typically order, I don't dislike them, but they're not my favorite. These were quite good, my favorite of the two being the hot one. In between this and the next course, we dined on homemade foacaccia. The next course was a seared tuna dish, which was also excellent. This was followed by a pate course; I haven't eaten meat in decades and skeptical about a chickpea-based vegetarian pate. It was very good and my boyfriend thought it tasted very pate like. The next course was the first where my meal varied completely from the group; I got a risotto, which I thoroughly enjoyed. For our fifth course, I got the sea bream, which was excellent. After that, we got a cheese course, which was a semi-hard local cheese, which we loved. Our last course was a gluten free chocolate cake with chantilly and caramel corn; which was a sinfully rich way to cap off our meal.
I don't recall all of the wines that were paired with our courses, but I enjoyed each one. Our waiter, who was most likely also the sommelier, was very knowledgeable about our wines and very attentive to our table.
Our meal at SEb was the dining highlight of our trip. I definitely recommend it for a splurge meal. The space is cozy and lets you experience find dining in a casual environment.
