Orange Julep is hottest drink in town



You'll never find a better place who will serve orange juice like the Julep does. We don't really know what's in the famous mix, but you know that orange juice like this is only found here in Montreal.

Located just off the Decarie highway, the Orange Julep is hard to miss. Like a beacon in the Montreal sky, the gigantic, three story "orange ball" will draw you in whether you know ...

Boccacino's al fresco



Well, it's SPRINGTIME in MONTREAL! After last week's slushy mess, it's nice to see that Spring has sprung around here. To celebrate, I went the terrace at Boccacino's downtown, on McGill College. A perfect day for lunch al fresco :)

The place was VERY busy, although apparently it was easy to get seated inside right away. Service, as such, was so-so on the terrace, but it was ...

Hockey and Pub Food: La Cabane



La Cabane
3872 ST LAURENT, MONTRÉAL, QC, Canada - (514) 843-7283

So, it's over, and I'm done crying about the loss, but it was a good night out!

Montreal hockey fans are in a sorry state after a 6-5 loss to the dreaded Toronto Maple Leafs. As promised (please see link below), I went out to see the game on the Main to get a feel for hockey and pub food action ...

Aloha! A restaurant with cheap, delicious crepes... who could ask for more?



Although Aloha so blatantly looks like a cheesy attempt at a Hawaiian tiki-bar smack in the middle of arctic-climate Canada, it’s desirable prices, scrumptious crepes, seasoned shawarma and extremely late hours might make you disregard your first impression.

Once you step through the front door and into the peach-coloured, tropical tourbillion of a décor which overwhelms the small eatery, all questions escape you and the only thing that remains is the ...

Juliette & Chocolat: designer cups



Juliette & Chocolat. 1615 rue St-Denis, Montréal

This place screams: "Eat 'till it hurts!". My belly hurt, my teeth hurt, I had a RAGING sugar high, and I was happier that the proverbial pig in sh&*t. What a way to kick off Easter weekend.

Juliette & Chocolat are known for their divine, high-end ,designer cups of hot chocolaty love. You can get a whole range of types, from ...

Hockey and Pub Food: La Cage aux Sports



Hello Sports Fans! (And those of you who are just fans of Sports Bars)

Well, well, well, it IS an interesting time of year for hockey fans, no? We're in to the last weekend and the Eastern Conference is more goofed up than Barry Bonds' blood stream.

Tuesday night, The Boston Bruins were in town and I dropped by La Cage aux Sports in the Bell Centre to catch the ...

Rockaberry's Pies in the Skies



Pies you say?  Rockaberry is it. Pies galore are lined up in a large glass viewing case, taller than your average homemade pie, and perhaps 100 times more sugar...but then, how can you not indulge yourself?

Now expanding to several locations, most locations have attracted a good number of clients over the years. The oldest and neighborhood favorite is on Queen Mary, and the St-Denis location is usually ...

Sho-Dan Restaurant



If you're a traditional sushi lover, you're better off eating at places like Kaizen, Sakura and Katsura restaurants. But if you like to be adventurous and try something different, Sho-Dan will definitely turn the uninitiated into sushi aficionados.
There are two locations, the oldest is on Metcalfe, corner of Maisonneuve; the other is on Rene-Levesque, corner Bishop. I've been to the one on Metcalfe and prefer to plant ...

Bombay Choupati - Experience Indian Cuisine Like No Other!



Bombay Choupati was my first experience with Indian cuisine and certainly not my last

Ever since I can remember, my parents have had an aversion towards Indian cuisine; they tell people that they go to eat at an Indian restaurant every ten years just to confirm that they still hate it. It is ...

For the love of cake


Some of the best cake I've ever had came from Cocoa Locale, a sweet little cake shop on Park Avenue. The owner and baker, Reema, is a bubble cute woman who calls herself a "glorified grandma" But I tell you, my grandma never baked Valrhona Chai Cake or Lavender Vanilla cupcake. A 5 minutes walk from the Mont-Royal, its a perfect romantic spot ...
