Ristorante Beatrice

Restaurant-goers are always satisfied after a meal here, but the decadent dessert menu is the perfect way to top off the evening.
Le Bremner
361, rue Saint-Paul E, Montréal, QC H2Y 1H3Chuck Hughes’s menu at this fine dining establishment in the Old Port is well known in and around the city. And the dessert menu is just as popular.

Leméac
1045, av Laurier O, Outremont, QC H2V 2L1There is lots to enjoy at this chic French bistro, but the Pain Perdu on the dessert menu is definitely at the top of the list. The flavourful French toast, topped with dulce de leche ice cream and maple caramel sauce, created by pastry chef David Courteau, is a mouth-watering dessert you won’t forget, or regret – so long as you ignore the calorie count.
C'Cho-Colat

With a variety of extravagant desserts, it may be tough to pick just one. But if you have to, go for the Golden Ticket Mason Jar milkshake. It’s described as a “milky chocolate gelato river,” topped with M&Ms, and an explosion of candies and jujubes. It’s basically a sugar-lover’s dream in a jar.
