Max experienced the world of canadian culinary delight in Montreal over the weekend. In addition this was our very first vacation together as our newly formed family! We spent three fun-filled days in this lively city.
We decided to carry Max around most of the time in his new favourite mode of transportation - the Baby Bjorn. This is the best thing by far, in that it is the only way to tote him around without him falling asleep in the first 15 mins!Max sat back and enjoyed the ride through Old Montreal, the famous Montreal Bagel Store. "St. Viateur" and watched us eat copious amounts of foie gras and poutine among other things.
The number one reason for visiting Montreal that weekend was to eat at Au Pied du Cochon, a restaurant touted as one of the best finds in Montreal as per celebrated chef and icon in the food business, Anthony Bourdain.
'A must do' for a vegetarian it is not, as the menu is really meat-centric with such delicacies as Foie Gras stuffed Pig's feet to Poutine covered in Foie Gras. It's really all about the Foie Gras and the novel ways in which it can be served up. Having eaten these little overstuffed duck/geese livers everyday in Paris, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed at Au Pied du Cochon.
Here is a link to this charming little spot in the Latin Quarter - if you ever fancy a cholesterol overload!
