Roasted Chicken on a Cold Night

It's getting pretty cold already and Christoff is making his famous roasted chicken tonight.
This time, he's cooking organic, hormone free, vegetable fed, twice as expensive, half the size chicken.

We are not becoming vegetarians yet, but we have been very freaked out about a case that I am reading - a company that sells contact lenses for chicken. I won't go into detail, but we are strongly against factory farming!!!

Until we become vegetarians, we'll enjoy happy birds only.

The crazy lady is back!!!

Poutine, deconstructed

This is more traditional

Even McDonald's has it!

This is a smoked meat version

Poutine was originated in Quebec. We have a few different versions here, but it consists of french fries, cheese curds, and gravy.

Poutine

Pintxo

Mushroom with escargot

Clams with artichoke - my personal favorite

Beef cheeks with risotto

Pintxo (pronounced "Peent-choo") is the Basque word for tapas.
The Mexican chef was in Pais Vasco, Spain for 5 years and was happy when Christoff yelled "Gracias, rasa"

St-Viateur Bagel & Cafe

I know, I know, New Yorkers are pretty proud of their bagels, but I have to say, bagel in Montreal was really good.

Bagel in Montreal was less doughy...

Mine was with lox and cream cheese / soup - egg & spinach soup, which was surprisingly good

Bagel with egg & ham / came with Greek salad

L'Express - The Best Meal in Montreal

Every table came with Gherkin

Bone Marrow
It was much better with toasted sliced of baguette

Duck confit

Lamb with lentils

Even cappuccino was good...

L'Express made me feel like I was in Paris, but we were happy to have staff that spoke English.
But watch out, the menu is in French and hand-written, so you need to know what you want before walking into the restaurant.

Baguette was so good. It's hard to find good baguette in NY, so I was extremely happy!

First Day in Montreal

Guess what I found in Montreal!! - Pho Bang!!!

We had a few days off from school, and we just wanted to get away from work, school, politics, election... ok, ok, we wanted to leave the country for a while.

We played around the idea of going to Guatemala, where we still want to go, but we decided to go somewhere close - driving distance.

We finally decided on Montreal. I thought, it would be like going to Europe without actually going to Europe. Montreal reminded us of Paris + San Francisco. The language & culture reminded us of Paris, but the people and their attitude reminded us of San Francisco - PERFECT PLACE FOR US!!!

On our first day, after seeing Basilique Notre-Dame, we were off to Montreal's Chinatown.
It was small but the cleanest Chinatown I have ever been to!!!
