Akula Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I have to go to Montreal next month on business and was wondering if there is anything I "must" do. I am travelling on the company dime so I wouldn't say expense is something I care about. I am looking for a good place for wine/food and perhaps something fun. I am planning on a hockey game but other than that I have no clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lustalbert Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 There should be quite a few 18 year old females up there taking advantage of the drinking age, take advantage of them. Otherwise, beat up anyone that is waving a french flag, and try to keep warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Go downtown, ride the monorail, St Cathrines street is known for bars and clubs. The malls and restarnts are close from there too. I haven't been there in years. But, I remember the smoking being out of control there. I mean, every other person was a smoker. Gramby's Zoo is pretty good too. I grew up 45 minutes south of there, in Vermont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted October 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I am staying in Bonaventure, which is right downtown next to the Bell Centre. I am looking for a good steak house or someplace with a massive scotch selection (cubans go good with scotch). BTW, I am married and not looking for Poutine even though they aren't related. http://www.thumper.net/tlkmag/archive/fun/poutine/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 As for a particular place to eat; it's been too long. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest crx34 Posted October 27, 2006 Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 . I am planning on a hockey game but other than that I have no clue. I have started planning for a hockey game to go to in Montreal. It won't be easy or cheap. I think the tix I started looking at started around $200 and thats for a o.k. seat. Canadians a crazy about there hockey, espacially if its "Hockey Night in Canada". I love hockey so I would spend a couple hundred on a Habs game!! It would be pretty crazy at the game. Do you know how to speak french? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted October 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 Nope, no french. I have been to a Habs game before, tix were about $50 for club level with free food. (scalper) that was a Canadiens vs Senators game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akula- Did you get your tix from a random outside the stadium. Or do you know someone? I would love to pay $50 for habs tix.

Akula Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 I got them from a scalper outside the Bell Centre. Guy asked if I needed tix, I said yes, he asked me where I wanted the seats.... $50 each club level and that is free food. I was stuffed with Nachos and hot dogs and ice cream etc...

Akula Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 That was the last time I went, I am going again this sunday. So, I am still looking for a good steak place or somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted November 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Ok, So I got here yesterday....flight wasn't bad, the directions I got to the hotel are aweful and I got WAAAYYY lost. The concierge at the hotel barely speaks english so he wasn't much help (doesn't speak french either, not that I can). Anyway, went to a dive Indian place last night pretty good grub. Hit the central staton underground for lunch, really cool. I dig the whole, you can walk underground to just about anywhere. Tonight I plan on finding a pub and hoisting a few pints etc... No Poutine just yet, but I did see a PFK (KFC in French). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
