Drinks & Nightlife
The word pub is derived from the term public house. A public house was traditionally a meeting spot that could serve as a center for the community as much as the local church. Burgundy Lion immerses itself in the community to re-create that sense of comfort but with a modern twist. The concept behind the design and feel of Burgundy Lion is to blend

Ambience is definitely on point and the candles on the tables added a romantic touch to the whole tranquil atmosphere.
The decor, the vibe, the drinks and the fact you can buy an expensive exclusive Japanese whiskey that hangs from the ceiling, is simply awesome.

Sightseeing
This is the most popular lookout on Mont-Royal thanks to its accessibility and large parking lot. Naturally enough, it’s a magnet for couples once night falls, making it nearly impossible on summer nights to find a parking space.
You can walk to Chalet du Mont-Royal, 2km away. To get to this lookout, take the stairs that lead from the parking.

Essentials
One of two grocery stores on the Nuns Island. Has many flavor to any taste. Great flower department. Big wine selection, although SAQ is right next door. Has a good selection of meat and fish. They have two chefs on the floor with some great recipes and tryouts. As I heard, they even plan to open some cooking lessons & friendly staff.

Food Scene
Their food is overall very nice. I can't pretend I have experimented entirely with the menu, but my dining partners have been always happy with the pasta dishes and salmon tartar. They also have fresh oysters to start the night with although the three dollars per oyster yesterday seemed a little bit overpriced. Most of the dishes are offered in two

Wonderful view of the St. Lawrence River and on the other side of the restaurant the cross on Mont Royal. Nice terrace with some greenery. The service was excellent including the reception before entering the restaurant. Fortunately it was not as expensive as we had thought for a restaurant with an amazing view.

Entertainment & Activities
A great venue for EDM concerts! It's large and has a cute outdoor patio area as well. The venue can be quite packed for popular DJs on the ground floor, but the VIP area is always more relaxed. The bathrooms are luxurious and there is great service.
Coat check can get quite hectic at the end of the night, so I'd recommend leaving a bit earlier to

When you cross from the old town across the railway tracks the first impression is like Barcelona. The feel and the architecture - new and old - is worth seeing. A lot of renovation work is ongoing but that doesn't spoil the walk.

Everything Else
We went to the Casino de Montreal to see a show, "Caberet", which was super and one of the three of us is a gambler. The evening was fun. The casino had a great band playing and we all ended up dancing! A fun night!
