Lamp if you're open to another Monday-night recommendation may I recommend Damas for a plate of good Syrian food. Or you could also do dinner at Lemeac that night, their best option imo is their after-10pm prix fixe and I think they're open Mondays

damas is great, as is their less expensive sister resto kaza maza

good call on lemeac mondays too!
That place was introduced to me as "the place you take fancy friends when their flight was late". Lamp please order the pain perdu it is extremely delicious and the size of a small child

haha isnt it beautiful. idk my partner had it highly recommended, im not that fussed abt brunch stuff as long as we have some ideas, i was just worried abt getting resos for dinner before places filled up, being too far is def a barrier but well see how we feel/how hungover we are

blurry brunch
― mh, Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:17 (ten years ago) link
i feel like going there is not going to be the best idea. go to maison publique or lawrence for brunch if you're not going to the latter for dinner. (or hell even if you are.)

i ate at prohibition!!

tried a couple things on the menu but the only thing i would order again would be the... eggs benedict... hungarian... or something...? i can't remember. they were damned delicious.
if yr partner wants to go there, go :D just know that that meal is head & shoulders above at least 3 others...
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:40 (ten years ago) link
would you say it's worth a trip to NDG for those eggs
― socki (s1ocki), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:43 (ten years ago) link
i mean if you're gonna go to ndg for eggs, go to cosmos is what im saying
idk s1ox do you have an in @ lawrence? ill buy you breakfast if we dont have to wait but otherwise the internet and my non-ilx sources tell me it is like an hour which is just too much

ya exams are 5 - 18 dec. neways hard to tell what i'll be doing so far in the future, mb ilxmail me or something? i live like 2 blocks from all those places mentioned in my last post

just go a bit earlier or later and put your name down and phone number, then go next door and have a coffee and a donut at sardine. [and thank me later]

TYPICAL EAST MTL BIAS ITT
but yeah its good and its better than cosmos but yd be looking at like over an hour for the round trip to monkland. if for some reason you're out there it's a good bet, otherwise the eggs are not +1h better than the above mentioned places.
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:03 (ten years ago) link
and the other thing is youd be on monkland before/after which is just :|
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Wednesday, 23 October 2013 20:04 (ten years ago) link
i do not believe it is better than cosmos

looking at all of these restaurant recommendations, wishing i was a visitor to my own city so i could justify eating all of this food.

Man, not looking foward having Coderre as a mayor for I don't know how many years.
and not even 40% people voted, surely Montreal could do better than that?

I'm into this band No Joy playing at il motore on sat night
― obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Friday, 6 December 2013 04:45 (ten years ago) link
Get wasted on cheap pints at playhouse late late Friday night, hear awesome weird lady rock bands, be yr queer self. Depends on what you're into doing of course.
The weather looks decent this weekend at least! I kept laughing about this food truck thing out at Olympic stadium, which happens in summer but they're trying to make into a winter thing too, but it seems ridiculous to me to stand in the shadow of a concrete monstrosity in winter to buy overpriced "street food." Anyway that's happening Saturday. There's also ice shaking. And aforementioned smart design mart, yep!

i may as well go there

we're neighbors basically
gbx I don't know, I even think of that as something that ~cannot be known~ by the contemporary residents of a city, but def come hang in Montreal whether or not you are a neighbour. if I were to describe what it's like here anytime between like one week from now & April you wouldn't come, so just jump in, don't even talk to hoteliers who might let something slip by phone, just book a trip, commit
