Montreal for Insiders: Best First Date Restaurants in Montreal

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2011/12/best-first-date-restaurants-in-montreal.html

Dec 12, 2011. Best First Date Restaurants in Montreal. By Andrea Doucet Donida. 8220;What restaurant do you recommend? 8221; is maybe the question I get asked the most. Is it because there are so many good restaurants in Montreal, one doesn’t know which one to choose? Maybe Although I have a very long list of favourite restaurants in Montreal – an ever changing one I might add, since each year brings numerous opening and closing of good tables – I often feel overwhelmed by this question. Au Pied de Cochon.

I know it's a very bad idea to think of restaurants in terms of rankings, to compare them mentally, assigning marks. But at the same time, it's hard not to. Is another one of these places. My favourite in North America and truly one of the greatest I've ever been to. I was lucky enough to receive the book at home, as a gift, and have to say it's a ...

Montreal for Insiders: New Le Hangar restaurant, by chef Louis-François Marcotte: casual and fun

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2010/11/new-le-hangar-restaurant-by-chef-louis.html

Nov 1, 2010. New Le Hangar restaurant, by chef Louis-François Marcotte: casual and fun. Every town has its celeb chefs, and Montreal is no different, even if they're few. The clique is made up of Normand Laprise (Toqué! Chuck Hughes (Garde Manger), Dave McMillan (Joe Beef), Martin Picard (Au Pied de Cochon) and. Louis-François Marcotte. But a food critic can't be prejudiced, right? And they recently had a baby boy. Turns out the guy who actually does the cooking, youngster Mike Diamond. Has a very sure h...

Montreal for Insiders: Omnivore Montreal: a culinary festival for chefs making their mark

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2013/09/omnivore-montreal-culinary-festival-for.html

Sep 9, 2013. Omnivore Montreal: a culinary festival for chefs making their mark. By Erica Radey, special collaboration. It was a fun filled weekend this past August 17 and 18th at the SAT in Montreal as the Omnivore took place. Culinary demos were given by local chefs as well as chefs from abroad. Omnivore is the culinary festival of young chefs making their mark on the gastronomic scene. One of my favourite demos had to be the one by Charles-Antoine Crête, chef at Toqué! Cooking for Charles-Antoine is m...

Montreal for Insiders: Park restaurant on Victoria Avenue in Westmount: top-notch sushi and much more

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2012/02/park-restaurant-on-victoria-avenue-in.html

Feb 25, 2012. Park restaurant on Victoria Avenue in Westmount: top-notch sushi and much more. Adendum: there is a newer, up-to-date post on Park, here. I, as many natives of São Paulo, seem to think I'm from one of the best sushi towns in the world. Antonio Park was previously the chef at Kaizen restaurant, but I don't even like mentioning Kaizen, as I have nothing positive to say about the place, where the owner(s) clearly doesn't care much about service, and there's lots of gringo-style rolls on the me...

Montreal for Insiders: The best of Montreal café culture

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2009/08/best-in-montreal-coffee.html

Aug 6, 2009. The best of Montreal café culture. As any local will tell you, coffee shops come a dime a dozen in Montreal. The city's reputation as being an oasis of European culture and style in North America is undoubtedly well-founded: the province's distinct language, history and political identity have shaped a culture immeasurably different than it's English-speaking federal counterparts, whether neighbouring Ontario or far-flung British Columbia. Unsurprisingly, the best window into Montreal's café...

Montreal for Insiders: Thursday nights at Old Montreal's Velvet speakeasy

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2009/10/old-montreals-velvet-speakeasy-open-on.html

Oct 9, 2009. Thursday nights at Old Montreal's Velvet speakeasy. Open only on Thursdays, the Velvet speakeasy "is the weekly rendez-vous for consumers of ill beats, fresh drinks, and casual good-times." While hearing about Old Montreal's swankiest new "speakeasy" through Facebook couldn't be a more fitting illustration of how the prohibition-era concept has been redefined as contemporary cool. It's good to know Montreal isn't missing a beat on the hottest nightlife trends. Next Thursday, check it out!

Montreal for Insiders: Cavalli restaurant on Peel street: the hottest girls in town?

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2010/08/cavalli-restaurant-on-peel-street.html

Aug 2, 2010. Cavalli restaurant on Peel street: the hottest girls in town? What's Cavalli, you may ask - isn't that a restaurant? Sure, it's that, too, and the food is actually pretty good, usually. But to my great surprise, I found out last Thursday that's it's a hopping 5 à 7 bar, too. Basically, tons of people congregating around a pink-lit bar, (mostly men) being served by hot waitresses in even hotter little dresses. 2040 Peel St, Montreal, tel. 514 843-5100.

Montreal for Insiders: April 2013

http://montrealforinsiders.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Apr 15, 2013. Montréal's best restaurants: a very personal list. I get the question "what's your favourite restaurant in town" so often that I figured I shouldn't postpone any longer listing some of my top restaurant choices. Of course it's very silly to try to rank places: I have a different favourite for each occasion. So, without giving this much thought, stream-of-consciousness style, here are my current darlings:. Fun, casual, great Italy-inspired menu, sexy dimly-lit room (sometimes too noisy).
