It’s been a few times now that I visited Burger Royal. The place is pretty cool, it’s got a laid back atmosphere, and been a Quantin Tarantino fan I like some of the reference they have in the decor and the menu. Naturally the main reason for my visits is the food and I always enjoy a […]
BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM Portland is well know for their craft beers so I couldn’t pass by without trying some of the local brews. I had not made a reservation so I had to wait 15 minutes when I got to Deschutes Brewery before I got a table. It gave me time […]
BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM Of course if you’re from Montreal you’ve heard or visited Schwartz’s.

BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM I’m always lucky when I travel to find some good restaurants to eat at.

BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM If you have been to Italy and flew in to Rome the you might remember that ”FCO” is the airport code for Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino airport.

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. As a matter of fact don’t take my word for it but here’s some stats that might surprise you, in 2015 sales of Prosecco […]
BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM My quest to try another place for brunch took me to the Mile End on Fairmount street.

BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM Breakfast or brunch can be an adventure on Sunday’s. There is so many places to try in Montreal but it always seems that everyone thinks of the same place to go at the same time. I enjoy food as you probably guessed by now but I also dislike […]
BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM The Old Port is one of my favorite neighborhood in the city. Aside from the cachet of the old city and the amount of clubs and lounges there’s also a major concentration of restaurants. If you’ve been before you know that some of those places can run you up […]

FRANCAIS It was not my first time in San Francisco but it had still been close to 20 years since the last time I was there. I’ve seen the Golden Gate Bridge and I visited Alcatraz, I also saw Lombard street before and Chinatown while riding a Streetcar. That gave me the advantage of not […]

BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM A few weeks back I was invited to a different kind of event.

BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM I have to admit that we’re pretty lucky in Montreal to have all those roof top terasses. Downtown has it shares of them but so does Old Montreal. Of course you will get a different scenery between both of those neighborhoods but especially if you are planning […]
BY SEBASTIEN ROBILLARD TWITTER: @Seb_Blog EMAIL: FASHIONBPM@GMAIL.COM As you might already know, I love Japanese food and sushi. I’v been eating sushi since the 90’s when it was not yet very popular in North America. That been said not all sushi restaurants offer the same quality of sushi and sashimi and that’s always a quest […]
