Montreal!

dinette triple crown is the southern place? casual is good though! thanx for the rec's btw, i actually tried to go to lawrence last time i was in mtl on yr recommendation but it was too crowded. might give vieux velo a shot actually, if figaro isnt good.

also where is fun/cool to go dancing iye? we have a couple of things on friday/saturday but could use some good rec's

vieux velo is nice

definitely try and do lawrence for brunch or dinner. it really is tip top. they do everything right.

ummm
in response to that last question im old :(

vieux velo is 100x better than figaro. So is Le Pick-up.

julieta (next to vieux velo on beaubien) has amazing breakfast. but vv rules, too. ndq, across the street from both of them & one block west, would be a good place to check out for dancing. not a huge dancefloor and sometimes not loud enough but can be very fun

You may see me and maybe even other ILX baseball fans for Mets v Jays at Stade Olympique on March 28-29. (No, these games don't count.)

thanx! also what are you up to that weekend? or do u have exams?

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

no order the tartelette

flamboyant if ilxor had avatars would you consider this one: http://images.wikia.com/finalfantasy/images/archive/b/bf/20100710184530!Owzer.PNG?

my partner is pretty interested in prohibition for brunch so i think were gonna try the late nite menu @ lemeac and looks like we have dinner party invite for saturday so ty ilx for solving this hardship for me

prohibition?

?

byob

dont know that place but like... have you heard good things about it? are you staying near there? its on monkland which is kind of hte other side of the city where the rest of the stuff you're doing is.

:(
*puts on jogging gear*

that website has me very... Ô_o

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

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.)

listen to this wise man

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...

would you say it's worth a trip to NDG for those eggs

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

lol--don't go to monkland

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]

haha, otm

ok ok alright its on the schedule

@ flopson yah ill webmail before we leave w/my # hopefully you can meet us for drinks or s.thing. we're gonna be out and around all wknd so if you're free obv welcome to hang. also if you hear abt anything particularly cool going on :D

s1ock it 2 me

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.

and the other thing is youd be on monkland before/after which is just :|

i do not believe it is better than cosmos

diff'rent yolks

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?

lol from Montreal, live in Nazim

any last minute(ish) rec's for things to do this weekend btw?

Check out Smart Design Mart in Mile End: http://www.smartdesignmart.com/

I'm into this band No Joy playing at il motore on sat night

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!

Haha ice skating, I mean

hrmm yeah doesn't seem like there's much going on this weekend

where is the best cheap place to stay in mtl is what i want to know

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
