My Montreal Is Better Than Yours*
Once again, bloggers are having their way with Budget Travel: A.J. Kinik and Michelle Marek--who write a wonderful blog, "...an endless banquet"--show us all where to eat, shop, and play in the city that they obsess over better than anyone else.
July/August 2007 issue

Montreal's most refined selection of imported, Quebecois, and raw-milk cheese is in Outremont, in the gorgeous cabinets of Yannick Fromagerie d'Exception. If tea is your bag, pay a visit to Camellia Sinensis. There's a new location next to Jean-Talon Market, but the original location in the Quartier Latin includes a newly refurbished teahouse.

No tour of gourmet Montreal would be complete without a visit to a chocolatier. Our hands-down top choice is Les Chocolats de Chloé. Chloé Gervais-Fredette's attention to detail shows through in everything she touches, not just the small-batch, hand-dipped chocolate but also the shop and the packaging.
