“Hop In”

The little things in life bring us the most pleasure, a perfectly chilled bottle of Spumante, ripe prosciutto sliced by hand that simply melts in your mouth or dinning al fresco with close ones. Whatever it may be, we all share that same feeling of warmth and comfort when we experience the little things in life that allow us to simply be, to take...

ModernHostess: Finger-Lickin’ Chicken

As most of us probably are, I’m a real sucker for chicken fingers. What’s not to love?? It’s crispy, delicious comfort food, and the dipping sauce variety is just delightful. Crunchy chicken definitely brings me back to my childhood, when chicken nuggets were one of the only things I was willing to eat. Nowadays, my palette is considerably...

Avesta Resto Café: A Turkish Delight

Nothing beats a cheap eat, and in Montreal, my number one recommendation for a gastronomic extravaganza on a budget is Avesta Resto Café located at 2077 rue Sainte-Catherine Ouest. Here, you can eat a filling and scrump-didily-umptious meal for about $10. Constantly stationed in the window is the best advertisement for a restaurant that I’ve...
