What is Menu Extra?

Born out of a desire to share restaurant food with as many foodies as possible, Menu Extra has a well established mission: to democratise gastronomy by bringing it home.We do it by delivering ready-to-bake gourmet meals. 

 Therefore, Menu Extra is ...

To stop waiting for special opportunities by creating them ourselves.

This passion for craftsmanship, down to the smallest detail. 

This desire to transmit our knowledge with the iright amount of rigour and passion.

This envy to create strong emotions through the rich flavours of local ingredients, all in romance.

 In addition to our meals, we create a wide range of related events: country dinners in the vineyard, online cooking workshops, gastronomic meals in tandem with legendary restaurants.

How does it work?

1 - Simply choose one or more menus from our shop.

2 - Select the delivery or pick-up date. 

3 - When you receive the feast, simply follow the instructions included in the box to reheat the dishes. The instructions even include musical pairing for each meal!

4 - Taste and enjoy this turnkey experience!

Do you offer delivery?

Yes, 45km around our location at 5206 Saint-Laurent, Montreal. We also offer punctual delivery for the Laurentians, the Eastern Townships and the Capitale-Nationale.

We plan to expand our distribution network in the future to accommodate all of Quebec and eventually Toronto.

What kind of food do you cook?

We create hearty, ready-to-bake meals in-sync with the seasons and the inspirations of our two renowned chefs: Francis Blais and Camilo Lapointe-Nascimento. You will find on our menu great classics of French gastronomy such as pithiviers, koulibiac, bouillabaisse and many others. We are particularly fond of tradition, but we like to bring a touch of modernity and freshness to it. 

Can I add a bottle of wine to my order?

Of course we do! In fact, when you add an item to your basket, you will be offered suggestions to match your meal. You can also consult our wine list to discover our entire wine cellar. Psst, we offer exclusive pairings in limited quantities to our newsletter subscribers! 

The purchase of wine must be accompanied by a purchase of food (it can be just a small dessert!).

How long can we keep the dishes in the fridge?

Our gourmet dishes are delicious up to three days after receiving the feast. We can also freeze and/or vacuum-pack our main courses to provide you a longer preservation time.

Do I need to cook?

No, our dishes go straight into the oven. All you have to do is take out your best dishes, put the meal in the oven and enjoy !

Do you offer your services to companies?

Yes, we offer customised gourmet boxes and cooking workshops to companies. Do you have a crazy project? Well, we like to live life with a little extra madness.

I have allergies or dietary restrictions, can I order?

Yes, we always offer different and tasty vegetarian, gluten-free, lactose-free, nut-free options in our shop. 

Tell us about your dietary restrictions at info@menuextra.ca and we will be happy to cook for you.

How often do you change the menu?

We add new menus to our shop every fortnight.

Are there any options for children?

Yes, we have several options that will please the little ones! Our gourmet menus are designed for two people, but by adding dishes and side dishes from our menu à la carte, you'll be able to fill the tummies of all the foodie at the table (regardless of their age).

What happens if I am not at home at the time of delivery?

We will contact you directly to find a solution. If we are unable to reach you, we will leave the box at your door as our boxes can keep food fresh for up to 8 hours.

Please, let us know if a time slot between 10am and 6pm suits you better!

Do you plan to open a "real" restaurant in the future?

It's a secret for now... However, you are the one who opens a restaurant every time you open one of our boxes at home ! ;)

Are you currently hiring?
