ENGLISH Êtes-vous un fan de la cuisine japonaise ? Je le suis, les sushis ou autres plats issus de la cuisine japonaise sont toujours délicieux. Ce que j’aime particulièrement dans les Izakaya, c’est l’ambiance dans laquelle on y mange. Il y a quelques mois, j’ai découvert Hanzo Izakaya. Situé dans le Vieux-Montréal (ce qui est […]
ENGLISH Il y a quelques années, il était difficile de trouver un bon pub dans le Vieux Port. Aujourd’hui, un certain nombre d’entre eux ont ouvert leurs portes et le Pub Wolf and Workman est l’un d’entre eux. Faisant partie du groupe Burgundy Lion, le Pub a ouvert dans l’espace précédemment occupé par Scarlet. C’est […]
ENGLISH Il y a très, très longtemps, la scène des bars sur St-Laurent était l’endroit où il fallait être. Chaque bar avait son propre cachet ou son propre charme et on s’efforçait de créer un environnement pour les clients qui visitaient ces établissements. Je pensais que cette époque était révolue jusqu’à ce que je visite […]
This year of confinement really took a number on me when it comes to food. At the beginning of it all I was all about buying healthy food at the grocery store and cooking dinner every night. After a while I was really missing the restaurants so I started to order out once a week […]

Maybe it’s just me but the association or that special moment […]

I received the Syrah and the Chardonnay from Fat Bastard Winery to give them a try. Because of the name I first thought these wines to be from the New Worlds but realized they were from France. A 2016 Chardonnay is what I tried first on a nice sunny afternoon, keep in mind that I’m […]
Yes you read it right you can get awesome chocolates delivered to your door. I was approached by Planet Chocolat, a Belgium artisan chocolaterie base in the heart of Brussel. When I was ask to try their chocolate and service I could not turn it down…who doesn’t like chocolate. First off the delivery is fast, […]
If anyone has known me for awhile, they will know that I love two things besides real estate: writing and, well….anything bubbly, especially champagne. Naturally, I was beyond delighted when my good friend and past blog partner Seb sent me a very interesting invite and asked me to go to an event/tasting on his […]
If you’re into cooking I’m sure you’ll agree with me that cooking on the BBQ is awesome. Besides the exquisite tastes that it brings there’s a certain satisfaction to manning a grill. Maybe it’s just me but cooking on the open flame gives a certain kind of pride almost if I’ve hunted what ever I’m cooking […]
If you really are into hot sauces you know that it’s almost been part of a special group. When I say really into hot sauce I mean it, that means putting hot sauce on almost everything you eat. I don’t bring my hot sauce consumption to that extend but I really enjoy it. For me […]

BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM Who doesn’t like champagne, but have you ever tried Prosecco? I’m an aficionado of Italian cuisine and drinks but that has nothing to do with it.
