If I lived in Montreal this would be my go to place for breakfast meals.

Also, playing all my favorite music while I chow down is pretty cool too.

Possibly one of the best ideas for a museum.

Just wish it was bigger and ya know with more alive insects instead of dead ones.

The good news is the permanent collection is free.
The bad news is the layout of the museum's collections is super confusing.

I found myself both disappointed (spoiled by living in brooklyn/nyc) and extremely interested in several artists that I had…More »

When I look at the Fairmount bagels and then think to my Brooklyn bagels, I can clearly see why we have such a larger obesity problem than Montreal.
