(also on eats.page!)
RESTAURANTS:
"Greg's big faves/go-to's are:
• Patati Patata for excellent poutine
• Majestique for oysters, cocktails and vibes
• Kazu might be one of my favorite restaurants - absolutely try to sit at the bar to chat with the chef. I may have cried there once or twice because of how good the food was.
• Arthur's for extraordinary brunch -- if you go there Sunday morning, you have to be there by 9am sharp, otherwise you pretty much have no chance.
• If you are in a crazy splurge mood, le Serpent is where I would eat every day if money was not a thing (it's not even that crazy expensive by NY standards..)
• St-Viateur Bagels: Greg considers this the superior, if not the best, bagel in the world - he is allowed to have this opinion."
