| For those convinced their home is just too tiny to entertain, there is another option: rent a restaurant. Private groups of six to 25 can take over Le Naked Lunch's large table for the night, bring CDs of music and treat themselves a choice of three tasting mesnus whipped up in the open kitchen. And, of course, the wineflows freely. "We get a lot of young professionals in their 30s. Sometimes they don't want to bother cooking," the resto-boutique's Amélie Dion said. "In a small apartment these days you can't easily have 12 people and serve a six or 10 course meal. So they can come here. "It's like you're at home but you don't have to do the dishes!"

Once the sun goes down, this gourmet bou- tique and catering centre in Verdun moon- lights as a private restaurant for single groups. Behind the sleek, diner-style exte- rior. there are different menu formats to choose from. A cocktail-style evening fea- tures creative canapés like salmon tartare with flying-fish roe, smoked trout on man- go and avocado salsa and shrimp flambéed with pastis while the "grande dégusta- tion" option, a 10-course affair served with wines to match, is more of a sit-down expe- rience. |
