La Dinette Montréal-est: Forget the Usual Eggs & Bacon

Amanda Di Pancrazio October 8, 2015

My favourite meal of the day? Hands down, breakfast. Whenever I can, I have breakfast in the morning, at noon and at night. Why? Because I'm a grown up and I can.

While I'm a fan of a good old fashioned dish of eggs, bacon, pancakes, sausages, potatoes, beans, etc., etc., I also enjoy the occasional out-of-the-norm breakfast extravaganza.

AGA Boucherie: One Butcher to Rule Them All

Amanda Di Pancrazio July 21, 2015

Let me tell you - when you live in Saint-Leonard, there's a lot of perks when it comes to food. You've got the best bakeries, pastry shops, specialty food stores and as the BF has recently discovered: THE BEST butcher, AGA Boucherie.

El rey del taco - chips and salsas - authentic mexican cuisine - mexican food - mexican restaurant montreal - my girl montreal

The King Lives - and he makes the best tacos in town

Amanda Di Pancrazio April 26, 2015

It's no secret - I love Mexican food. And I absolutely loathe what most people believe is Mexican food. Let's get real here: 3 Amigos is not Mexican food: it's tex mex. If we all got a taste of the real deal, we'd all be hooked and we'd all be a bunch of jumbo-sized oompa loompas. Totally worth it.

Auberge Dragon Rouge: A Theatrical and Meaty-Meal

Amanda Di Pancrazio April 7, 2015

A month ago, the BF proclaimed that we needed to go to this restaurant that a co-worker told him about. He said it was a medieval-themed restaurant with good food. Oh, OK.

Naturally, I did some reading because I wanted to know what I was getting into. Would there be sword fights and jousting and knights in full-body armour?! No, there isn't, but I quickly came to realize that this place was much more than just entertainment: their food was actually good. It just so happened that the thematic entertainment was a perk. Now I was intrigued.
