Urban Sugar Shack – Chef à l’érable 2016

by Jason March 8, 2016
written by Jason

It’s that time of year again, the annual thaw; the roads get slushier, the tree sap starts to flow, and our bodies start to produce mass amounts of insulin to process the litres of maple syrup we will ingest in one last hurrah of packing it in unlocking a new level in winter weight gain. Our timely tradition of cabane à sucre comes but once a year and where you chose to celebrate this golden nectar of the woodland Gods is often a decision that’s hard to make. You can either drive outside the city to visit an authentic sugar shack with family-centric outdoor activities and classic dining hall dishes, or you can take a metro and and walk to the old port to experience the city’s finest upscale urban sugar shacks – Chef à l’érable at Scena.

Classic Trattoria in Petite-Patrie – Luciano Trattoria

by Jason March 4, 2016
written by Jason

Every neighbourhood likes to have things they call their own; the corner deep that’s run by a cute family, the big fat stray cat that everyone seems to feed and that guy who reserves parking spot on the street with a folding chair after digging his car out after a snowstorm.

She was back in town packing up the rest of her apartment before the big move and needed to fill an Italian meal void she’d been having ever since she went to China.

Legit Pho in the West Island – Pho Thanh

by Jason February 26, 2016
written by Jason

Dear West island,

I know we’ve had our differences in the past, and by differences, I mean me making fun of you for various reasons like, being a baron wasteland of decent food, or acting like the North Korean hermit borough of Montreal for living in a bubble being ruled under the greasy fist of the Sauce Boss and considering anything past Ikea as “downtown”. Ok, wait, I take that back, there are some good restaurants in the West island but those places are rarer than an episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers that’s worth watching. But today I’m reaching out to you with a congratulatory handshake of peace. Why? Because you’ve finally entered the pho game with a worthy contender and you probably don’t even know it.

About Me

People get hungry and need to find good places to eat... I am people, and here are the places I've found. This is a log of my endeavors set forth to discover the hidden gems of the city I call home, Montreal. I vow to not leave one hot pot lid unturned, snail shell hollowed, or souvlaki foil emptied until I can safely say that I ate my way across Montreal. It's a big claim, but it's one I'm making.
