I have to admit, I don't know much about art. You can put a Monet in front of me and I'll be thinking what kind of food I can make with those water lilies. You can show me "the scream" and I'll think what must have that person seen that made him/her…More »

Hot damn!!

There are three types of strippers in my opinion:
1. Twinks
2. Muscle daddies
3. Jocks

This is the place for twinks and jocks. The twink to jock ratio is 5 to 1. Mostly twinks.

Having said that... dayum!! Have you ever come across a 5'4" skinny…More »

I love bugs. Only when they are in captivity. This is a great place to see those hissing roaches without feeling the urge to stomp on them.

I don't like bugs. They make me squirm... well, most of them. I love cute ones like butterflies. I have a…More »

I saw the tiniest guy with the largest wang here. I mean, really... he was about 5'2" with a 9 incher. And he snaked around the stripper pole like his life is hanging from it. I have never seen anyone do splits like him either, male or female. The…More »

If you are looking for a somewhat upscale dining experience with a great atmosphere, this is the place.

We were bored of eating in the Gay Village and decided to explore the old Montreal neighborhood. After an afternoon of walking around and enjoying…More »

The place is named "campus" but the boys are hardly campus go-ers.

Mostly muscle hunks. If you like guys who look like Ahhh-nold then it is the place for you. Too much muscle is a turn off for me.

Having said that, the crowd is very friendly and…More »

This is the place where you come for "jock" type strippers. You know, the ones that look like underwear models? Yeah, those types.

I was hyper ventilating after the dancer on stage took off his briefs. Oh my! I may have even let out a loud gasp!

Stunning views.

A cool late-summer evening, we get out of our hotel room, and take a hike to Mont Royal. I am not going to go in to the history behind it because that is what the Encyclopedia (or WIkipedia, if you are one of the Wiki fans) is for.

Really great experience staying at this hotel. We got a suite size room, even though we booked a regular one. The room was huge with a view of the rooftop pool. Sweet!

Two things I look for in a hotel: clean room and comfortable bed. The others do not…More »

Hands down, the best bagel store I've visited in my life. Nothing comes close.

The only "machine" I saw here is the cash machine. Everything else is hand made. You can see the bagel preparation process while ordering. Everything is hand made, with…More »

There is something about this place and drag queens. We ate there twice and there was a drag queen sitting next to our table at both times. Good looking ones.

Inexpensive and good middle eastern food near the Berry-UQAM train station. We walked the stretch of Catherine street and decided to stop by for a quick lunch.

The shish taouk and shawerma platter is the bomb! Also get the potatoes with garlic-yogurt…More »

I don't usually eat at vegetarian restaurants... I have to kill an animal for dinner every night. The man wanted to have vegetarian food for a change, and I agreed (I am a great bf, thank you very much!)

High end vegetarian fare. It is a chain of…More »

I've gotta admit, the Quebecois make better middle eastern food than Chicagoans.

Basha is a local chain with multiple locations. This particular one is located near the downtown area.

We had lunch one day while staying at the Omni nearby and returned…More »

Recently updated lists from Krsna V.

Simply the best! (15)

Just like the famous diva Tina Turner's song "simply the best, better than all the rest... better than anyone"

Capital-istic (20)

Fantastic capital city. My exploits in the wonderful capital city and suburbia.

Chicken soup for the soul (19)

Entertainment comes in many forms. You wanna be a cabaret star, get emotional at a play, join a cult... I even found myself on a roadtrip! In the end it is all about "chicken soup for the soul"!

Downtown living (10)

I am a Loop dweller. I have never been happy in any other Chicago neighborhood.

Playin' it safe (42)

The 3 and 4 star ratings. It's like you are almost the best.

Chicagoland aka suburbia (2)

Not all suburbs are dreadful. I would probably visit more if there is a flight service from ORD or MDW :-)

Adventures around NY and NJ (6)

Some places I visit to escape from the depressed locales of NJ and Long Island.

Mr. United Nations (19)

Back in the day, when I was wild child, I used to be known as Mr. United Nations. Not for the food, but for the number of flags on my bed post. Now that I have grown past my wild days, I am trying to keep the title by eating through various ethnic foods.

Brokeback Mountain (3)

Yes, I went there! I went to Wyoming to become a cowboy. Failed miserably at becoming a cowboy, but enjoyed my time otherwise.

Date night (24)

As much of an old couple we are (6+ years), we still do date nights often. Dress up, pick a proper place, the whole thing. One of the agreements we have in the V-P household is that we have to fly out for date night at least once a month. Hence, the various out of state places in the list.
