Walking around Montréal in late December, I was kinda shocked at how few people were out on the street.

Then I turned the corner, and walked into Dieu Du Ciel. Apparently that's where it's at.

I never go back to the same place when I'm on vacation (and…More »

Fantastic espresso + open late night = win.

Strong shot with the perfect amount of crema. I can't really justify 5 stars, but it's pretty damn close. There wasn't quite the depth of flavor that I've found in espressos from Stumptown or Four Barrel,…More »

Awesome that it's 24 hours, perfect for late night poutine.

I got the poutine mexicaine, and I'm really glad I chose that one. The tomatoes, olives, and pepperoncini helped balance out the crazy grease bomb of fries, gravy, and cheese curds. But once…More »
