This is, hands down, one of the most amazing churches that I've ever been to in my life.  It's just so impressive in every way!  Seriously, just take five minutes to go walk inside and look around... it won't cost you a dime!  What's there to lose?…More »

Montréal, QC H3H 1A2
Canada

Category: Parks

5.0 star rating
  8/26/2011

This park is huge -- it's Montréal's equivalent of Central Park in NYC or Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.  There are massive open spaces and wide, groomed-dirt trails for people to walk, bike, or jog.  If you take the trails all the way up to the…More »

A Canadian specialty, these yummy pastries are definitely worth trying!  They're made fresh and delicious, with many different combinations of toppings!  Each one costs around $5, but they are big enough to share if you like.  (and no, they are not…More »

Cool little chapel in Vieux-Montreal.  Not a whole lot to see inside (though what is there is very detailed, elaborate, historic, baroque)... the main draw is going upstairs to the tower and see the views of the river and old Montreal.  The museum on…More »

 5. Marché Bonsecours de Montréal

350 Rue Saint-Paul Est
Montreal, QC H2Y 1H2
Canada
(514) 872-7730
3.0 star rating
  8/23/2011

This is basically a small boutique-market, in a prime location in Vieux-Montréal.  There are not many stores; a few boutiques, an art gallery, a souvenir shop, and a couple restaurants.  Everything here seems to be on the pricey side, too.  

But hey,…More »

Montreal, QC H2Y 3B3
Canada
(514) 861-1386
3.0 star rating
  5/29/2011

Le Fripon is an all-around middling choice.  It was starting to rain in Old Montreal, and there was a cute hostess here, so we decided it was time to stop for lunch.

The food was average... they had a wide variety of menu choices, but no real…More »
