Weekend in Montreal help svp
Hi. We will be coming to Montreal for the Radiohead concert on Friday, June 15 & the Impact soccer game on June 16. I guess they start at 800 & 730 respectively, so I was wondering about where to go. Not particularly interested in a heavy meal late in the evening, so maybe an early dinner. For Friday night, I reserved Le Bremner. Any recommendations for Saturday? And Sunday, since we can dine at a regular time, could someone please recommend someplace nice open Sunday evening. It seems like many of the good place are closed Sunday. Thanks!
Indy for SuperBowl Bar/Rest info needed
Oh, and I don't like fixed menus, so Recess is not an option.
Indy for SuperBowl Bar/Rest info needed
I will be in for Super Bowl also. Have reservations at Mesh, R Bistro & Lorenzo's. Not sure about Lorenzo's. I'm concerned that it may not be authentic. Certainly doesnt look like anyone Italian works there. Can anyone help, and if it's not recommended, need a suggestion for somewhere else for Saturday. Thanks.
Gaylord in Grapevine With Vehicle
Will be at the Gaylord for Friday and Saturday nights with a vehicle so transportation is no problem.
Based on what I've read, Grapevine is not Chow heaven. Would I be better off driving to Dallas?
I was thinking of Nonna for one night. Went to Lucia the last time we were in town.
Went to Stephen Pyles and Nosh last time, so we would like to try somewhere different this time.
Suggestions and comments, please and thank you.
Something different like Joe's?
Looking for somewhere to go with two friends on a Saturday night. We went to Joe's in Venice a few years ago, and it was very nice. Would like to try somewhere else this time along the same lines or even a little more upscale. One of my friends likes a cool, trendy place. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Lucia Now Open
I cannot find the menu online. Are there any pastas without meat and how many fish selections are there? If you had to choose between Lucia and Nonna which would you choose?
Fernandina Beach late night?
I'm driving in tomorrow and likely will not arrive until between after 10pm. Is there anywhere decent to eat at that hour?
Patois or Coquette
Looking for dinner Thursday night with a friend from out of town and was thinking of Patois or Coquette. Looking for fish not seafood. Any reason to choose one over the other? Thanks.
Glow: Fresh Grill & Wine Bar at Don Mills
This place is downright AWFUL. Ordered the ahi tuna salad. First of all, the lettuce was iceberg lettuce and not very fresh at that. I did not see any mango - that is because it was in very thin strips, not chunks or slices. There were two tiny pieces of tuna. Unbelieveable. What a joke. I would never go near the place again. Be warned!
BAGELS at Dorval Airport (YUL)?
Thanks. didnt realize they sold them in Toronto. To be honest, I will still fly via YUL as it will let me hit Premier status on United.
BAGELS at Dorval Airport (YUL)?
Does anyone sell bagels at Trudeau Airport (YUL)?
Have the option of stopping in Montreal on the way to Toronto for no extra charge and would like to get some bagels. Thanks.
Las Vegas 4 nights
We will be in LAS for 4 nights, Mon-Thurs staying at the Encore. I haven't been to Vegas in many years so I am not that familiar with the town today. I need to decide where to go to dinner but I dont want to spend more than $150 per night, perhaps $200 tops.
A couple of nights could be less expensive places, but with decent food.
Please let me know what your suggestions would be. Thanks.
New York One Day
Will be in NY for one day. Was thinking of a deli for lunch and maybe Chinese for dinner. Someone suggested Liebman's in Riverdale for lunch. Who has the best Chinese in NY (Manhattan or Brooklyn)?
Dinner Saturday night Miami
Im coming into town for one night. Last year I went to Sardinia and liked it. Would be interested in trying somewhere different. Can someone recommend a place along those lines?
Fish or vegeterian in Lafayette, LA
I will be in Lafayette for a few days. Is there anywhere to get a decent meal besides Prejeans? I am looking for regular fish (NOT shellfish) other than catfish which I detest. Also, salads and pastas would be welcome. Thanks
MS Gulf Coast
Where is a good breakfast place near the Beau Rivage? The last 2 years we have gone to this cafe in Ocean Springs, but was hoping to find somewhere else. Also, looking for a nice upscale place for dinner not in a hotel. Went to Manhattan Grill last year. Food was all right, but the place was a little dated and dingy.
Pensacola Food and Ice Cream
I've been to Global Grill and Jacksons and my next visit I intend to try Dharma Blue. I really liked the Global Grill. Is there anywhere else of that calibre in PNS?
Also, where is the best ice cream parlor in Pensacola? Thank you.
West Palm Beach Open Late?
Hi. Arriving around 10:15pm later this week. Looking for some recommendations on places open late or maybe somewhere to grab a drink which serves decent food. Thanks!
Bagels & etc. in Philly
Thanks. Maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm really looking for a place where I can buy a few dozen excellent bagels to go (and possibly some appetizers such as herring, cheeses, lox, etc.)
Bagels & etc. in Philly
I am flying into Philly very early (5:15am) on a Sunday morning and have a 5 hour layover. Rather than sit around the airport, I was hoping to find a place(s) with good bagels, smoked fishes, herring, lox etc. (If anyone is familiar with South Florida, something like the Sage Deli in Hallandale.) Please let me know if I will need a car or if there is public transportation. I think I can get a car for $35-$40. Thanks.
LCBO - cheapo scotch
For value, I like "William Grant's Family Reserve". I actually prefer it to say, Johnnie Walker Red, and it's much cheaper.
Cuban Toronto
Hello everyone,
I'm visiting Toronto with a friend who is a native of Cuba. I've read about Julie's and the Mambo Lounge as far as food is concerned. I am wondering if there is anywhere in Toronto to get a good cafe con leche similar to the ones found on Calle Ocho in Miami. Also, is there any Cuban area in Toronto considering there are so many ethnic areas? Thanks in advance.
Phoenix Restaurant name?
Can someone please help me with the name of a Mexican restaurant in Phoenix? As I recall, it was in the northwest area, more or less. I don't remember the street, but it is on the left hand side as you travel northbound. Very casual, funky decor and I believe they had above average margaritas. I'll remember the name when I hear it. Thanks.
Dining recommendations in Miami/South Beach
I'm in town for two nights this weekend. From what I've read on this board, it would seem that MGFD is the top place in Miami. However, is it too casual for a Saturday night dinner? I've been to Sardinia and enjoyed it but was looking for somewhere new. Thanks.
