AND IF YOU LOVE GOOD FOOD, Montreal will
definitely exceed your expectations. PLATEAU RESTAURANTS: Au
Pied de Cochon, Buona Notte,
Casa
Tapas, Khyber Pass,
L'Express,
Laloux, Les
Infideles, Pintxo,
and Schwartz's, among many others.
OLD MONTREAL RESTAURANTS: Aix,
Aszu, Boris Bistro, Chez Queux, Gibby's,
Jardin
Nelson, Le Club Chasse
et Peche, Modavie,
Olive et
Gourmando, Restaurant
Bonaparte, Restaurant
du Vieux Port and Stash Cafe
are just a few of many.
SINCE THERE ARE MORE RESTAURANTS PER
CAPITA in Montreal than in ANY OTHER North American city, the
choices seem unlimited. Greek, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Italian,
Middle Eastern, etc. It's all there and for the most part locally owned
(hurray!) instead of chain restaurants. You can learn a lot about the
local food scene at the Montreal Chowhound
website.
FOR A CHANGE OF PACE we would go to the Latin
Quarter, which, like in Paris, is jammed with students. Drinking beer in
the huge terrace at St.Sulpice
is required, as is tea at the very cosmopolitan Camellia
Sinensis. Some say the best
hamburger in town is at La Paryse in the Latin Quarter.
SO WHEREVER YOUR ITINERARY TAKES YOU. the
city will not disappoint. Montrealers have figured out how to live!
BUT DON'T STOP HERE. Keep going to see more photos of the
province of Quebec. In 2008 Quebec City celebrates its 400th
year.
