I arrived at the Lafrenaie location inside the Roaster's which has its own entrance on Atwater Ave on my sister's birthday. Moreover, I was looking for a last minute cake. There were several options available but I needed assistance. All the while FaceTiming my mom and sending pictures of cakes to my brother in law, Roxanne waited and smiled patiently and even chipped in with recommendations. We finally came to an agreement and she offered to personalize the cake and asked me if I was going to eat it that evening or the next day because the strawberries would be frozen . She went in the back and replaced all the frozen berries on top pf the cake for fresh ones so that we could enjoy it the same day. She went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. This whole experience was totally 5 STARS !!!!

One of the last stops we made before heading to the airport was here at La Cave a Manger. We were…read moretaking one last stroll around Vieux-Montréal and looking for a little snack - so I whipped out my phone and La Cave came up as being close by. The reviews looked great, so we made our way over for some bakes. I assume La Cave gets its name from the fact that you are kinda entering a cave. The bakery is located in a basement surrounded in stone both on the exterior and interior. The bakery isn't large, but it's arranged in a way that foot traffic flows well. They have a good variety of bakes, though we were there relatively late in the day so some had already run out. Despite that, we had several to choose from. We decided to go with the ham and cheese croissant and one of their stuffed croissants. The former was pretty standard - there's wasn't a lot of ham but the flavor was there. The latter was one of those viral circular croissants that have been popular on social media; they had three flavors and I went with the lemon meringue. It was pretty good - it had a good ratio of stuffing to pastry and the lemon curd had a bright flavor. Service as good, the team was eager to help and super efficient. Overall, I had a good experience at La Cave a Manger - there are definitely some good bakes here and I wouldn't hesitate to return to try more of their menu.

I've tried Lloyd far too many times to count, I'm a hotel regular due to work travel and have been…read morefor breakfast, bites, cocktails, dinner, and ordered to the room. It's a beautiful restaurant, they cover a wide area within the hotel, including a lounge area, a more cocktail bar area, and a full restaurant set up. The beauty? They cover anything you might want. The downside? They're busy and usually severely behind schedule. I've been with great, consistent staff and I've been and left after 20 minutes of no check in. It can be hit or miss, but when it hits? It hits. They also provide the food that you order up to your room, which is probably my favorite part. Hotels rarely offer the same great menu to your room and so I always know when I've had a long workday that I can just get the same great dinner and lounge in bed after and avoid people. They also are great at getting breakfast to your door early, which makes trips to Montreal so much easier, especially if you're going for work. They always have a great selection of drinks, full bar so they offer everything, and the bartenders has been the same for at least a couple years. They're really nice. They do a good job. Ask for the food, it is always good, and the part I love is that they're very good about allergies when you mention it to them. They offer gluten-free bread and they change out ingredients. I've never had a bad meal or snack. So even when sometimes the weight is too long I know I'll be back another day and I'll have something great.

There is a bar in front with lounge style seating. It was eclectic and the music had a French twist. I ate lamb the first night and steak the night after. Both delicious but I liked the lamb better and the nioch was a nice touch. The thinly sliced fries with the steak was difficult to eat. The octopus was amazing and soft. Overall great and attentive staff and good food.

I ordered the Tonkotsu Black (9/10), the Gyoza (7/10), and the Cardamon Lager (9/10). The noodles in my ramen were a bit firm for my liking. But the flavor (broth) was phenomenal! The gyoza lacked the flavor in used to. And the lager was great (I'm not a beer drinker, but I'd definitely have it again).

TL;DR/The Short Version: Korean grocery store in downtown…read moreMontreal. Relatively small but has good variety. The Long Version: H Mart has arrived in Montreal. I feel a little bummed because I prefer small independently owned businesses over big chain stores, but truth be told, other than the name, the store looks and feels like it did before when it was one of the two "Épicerie Coréenne & Japonaise" locations on Ste Catherine West. This one became an H Mart (known as H Marché in Quebec) the other one is now MTLKFOOD (which is also an Asian grocery store). I don't know the backstory, but the prices aren't very different from before and with the exception of more prepared foods in their refrigerated section and more prepackaged bakery items, they are selling the same products that they did before. I was really hoping that the advantage of a chain with purchasing power would mean lower prices, but I didn't really see that. It's still a fun place to poke around and look for Asian items like imported snacks, but if you've been to the store when it was called Épicerie Coréenne & Japonaise, not much has changed.

Just not a personal favorite.
