With spring in full swing, we can’t help but think of the sunny days of summer that are right around the corner (or so we hope!). What says summer more than a trip to the stunning Okanagan region coupled with a dose of wine and oysters? Well, coming up rather quickly is the return of the Oliver Osoyoos Oyster Festival (Wednesday April 17th to Sunday April 21st), which more than does just that

Wednesday night brought out some of the most fashion savvy rolled-up jean cuff-wearing cool kids in Montreal for the opening of SUWU, situated at the boisterous intersection of Boulevard St. Laurent and Rue Prince Arthur. We knew it was going to be good night when A Tribe Called Quest was playing in the background and our drinks were called “Wu-Tang” and “Big Booty Ho”

We wake up at 6am to make it to spinning. We eat a salad for lunch – dressing on the side. We even manage to skip dessert after dinner. And then 11 o’clock rolls around. Somehow, all our willpower goes out the window. The reality is that in a battle with the sweet tooth, the sweet tooth always wins. So how can we satisfy our sweet cravings and stay healthy...

St.Patrick’s Day is arguably one of the greatest celebrations in Montreal, a festival in our city since 1824! Despite the slushy streets, cold winds and potholes, Montreal turns it up a notch in the name of green, colcannon and stout. This year, prepare yourselves for the copious amounts of stout and eat like a Saint! Here are some of our “I’m feeling a wee Irish today” go-to spots in Montreal for some authentic Irish pub grub

Behold, Montreal! One of our most beloved hangouts ever, L’Orignal, is adding an older, more grown-up member to its family of awesome places to eat, drink and be super merry. Magdalen, Travis Champion and wife Monica’s soon-to-be-open Old Montreal spot, is almost ready to set sail.

Distinct from our neighbouring city of New York, where street food has been perfectly integrated to the daily regime, Montreal is far from offering food stands at each corner turned. However, street food enthusiasts need not worry, a trip down the quays of the port is a definite worthwhile experience
