Tampopo
4449 Mentana Mont-Royal métro

Tel. 526-0001. Every day, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Deliveries, 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. $20 for two before beer, taxes and tip.
Thanks to this propitious precedent of the Porté Disparu's owners, noodles and delivery are once more respectable. A samlor, or Thai bicycle taxi at the entrance does double duty as an eye-catching advertisement. With a counter for up to twelve people, two tatamis and a private room for big familles, there's more than one way to wolf down your noodles without making a spectacle of yourself. Honest and inexpensive despite the Nikkei's difficulties. Tampopo means "dandelion." Asphalt aesthete and inner-city athlete, the samlor will deliver to your door if you live in the vicinity. Start your experience with a perfumed wet-wipe. A marked contrast with the Nouilles Seulement restaurant chain—here you get a chance to breathe between bites.

Sample menu: Vegetable soba, chicken tonkinoise, shrimp tonkinoise, beef or vegetarian Chinese ravioli, Thai noodles, Singapore noodles, Cantonese chow mein, Tampopo noodles, green-tea ice cream.
