It has been about a year now since Time Out, the media and hospitality brand that publishes local guides to some of the world's most interesting cities, ranked Rue Wellington in Verdun as “the coolest street in the world.” That is where I found Millmans Casse-Croûte, an all-day breakfast spot open Wednesday to Sunday from 9 am to 3 pm.
MTL Resto Rap
Les Enfants Terribles has been blowing out its 15 candles in style. Anniversary festivities for the trendy restaurant group began in late May with a happy hour at the first branch on Bernard Street in Outremont.
Have you heard the news? Madame Poulet (madamepoulet.com) has just opened a brand new location in Pointe-Claire! I recently had the pleasure of visiting the restaurant and was delighted by the experience.
Executive Chef Executive Chef Kevin Mougin has now turned his culinary talents into another extraordinary venture at the hotel called Terrasse Belvu. Located on the fourth floor, with lush greenery and breathtaking views of the city and Windsor Station, it is an oasis in the heart of Montreal.
There are a select few standout steakhouses in Montreal, but the one that should be regarded as a model of consistency and continued excellence belongs to Rib ‘N Reef on Decarie Boulevard under the ownership of Peter Katsoudas.
Founded here in Montreal in 1992, Bâton Rouge Grillhouse & Bar has grown to serve up quality, fire-grilled food in 28 locations in Quebec, Ontario, and Nova Scotia. The franchise on Decarie has always been my “go-to” spot for this chain since it opened two decades ago.
Dizz’s (originally a REAL Bagel) was a client of Quebec Smoked Meat. Steve Dizgun came up with an idea and he got on the phone with Billy Berenholc, owner of the nearly seven-decade-old Lesters Deli on Bernard Street in Outremont, as well as Mr. Smoked Meat, a purveyor of upscale smoked meat in the wholesale sector. Dizz’s offers you a smoked hot smoked meat sandwich between two slices of rye bread, with mustard, and a soft drink for $13.99.
It has been five years now since Jason-Neil Tremblay and Cathy Deschambault, opened Joséphine, a fish and seafood restaurant located in the heart of Le Plateau Mont-Royal at the corner of St. Denis and Duluth.
As a foodie, I just love what Na’eem Adam and Thierry Rassam of People Mover Technologies have done the last few years with festivals focusing on burgers, poutine and most recently pizza. We are now in the midst of the third edition of La Pizza Week, marked across Canada, through May 14.
