1. Imadake
There is so much more to Japanese food than just sushi but finding those other bits of Japanese cuisine can sometimes be a challenge. Imadake Isakaya offers Montrealers a taste of something they have been missing for quite some time.

2. Restaurant La Porte
Restaurant La Porte offers a contemporary take on classic French cuisine that's as inspired as its chef Thierry Rouyé. We sampled the tasting menu and every item was masterfully presented and decadent. We truly felt spoiled not just for being lucky…More »
3. Vino Vin et Terrasse
Until I saw a Teambuy offer, I had never really noticed this restaurant; it is in the basement of a building that houses a few other business, so it is kind of hidden. And with the name, and the signage (a grapevine with a wineglass) I would have…More »
4. 5 Saisons Sushi
While hunting down a decent meal the other night, my boyfriend and I decided it was time we give fairly new restaurant in our area a try. 5 Saisons Sushi opened a little more than a year ago and we have often thought about eating there, however, on…More »
5. Murray Street - Kitchen, Wine, Charcuterie
Murray Street Kitchen doesn't look much like a restaurant from the outside, well, at least not to me. In fact, I thought it was a butcher or deli from the street view and it was my friend who walked up to read the menu offerings. It was 4 PM and like…More »

We were visiting Las Vegas pretty much…More »
7. Au pied de cochon

I love having breakfast at the Grand Cafe but I hate their coffee. Yuck! In any case, there is a Starbucks within a few seconds and they have never been offended by my bringing in my own cuppa.
Since I am trying to be a little healthier I decided to…More »
