Late-night Montreal


It's about 1:30 in the morning, which is an insane time for me to be posting to my blog, but I just got in from a night out in Montreal and I'm catching up on some stuff before I go to sleep. I leave tomorrow to go back to New Jersey. I can't wait to see Dave again tomorrow night. It feels like it's been forever.

The convention has been fun, and I found plenty of time to continue enjoying the city as well. Tonight I went out with a group of friends to dinner at a place called Cuisine et Dependance, which is by far the best restaurant I experienced in Montreal. I had a salad with miraculous heirloom tomatoes and rayfish in a beurre blanc sauce. I was beginning to think Montreal wasn't much of a food town, as unlikely as that seems given its French heritage -- but I guess I've just been going to all the wrong places! I never did try poutine, though. Oh well -- just another thing to come back for!

ah... I should have thought of sending you a few restaurant addresses, my friend. Montreal is a foodie's delight - and I am not talking about poutine...

I bet Dave misses you, too!

I'm getting so excited for Thursday. Woooo hoooo!

You've just been too spoiled by Dave's cooking to appreciate Montreal's cuisine! I'm sure you will have a great homecoming.
