My City

As I enter my fourth and final year of studies at McGill I thought I should put together a little page with my favourite spots and things to do in Montreal. I truly do love this city. It's great to be a student here and I know I'm going to miss it when I leave. With that said, here is a list of my favourite things about Montreal.

Food: 

• BAGELS (obviously) : St. Viateur Bagel is the place to go to get 'em
• Kazu: crazy, tiny Japanese restaurant around the corner from Tupper 
• Patisserie Belge: Katie, Kinsey and I used to have croissants every Sunday morning on our way to church 
• La Banquise: the best poutine in the whole wide world 
• Schwartz's Deli: famous for its smoked meat sandwiches 
• YEH!: a favourite place for frozen yogurt with all the toppings
• Reuben's: more smoked meat but sit down and fancier 

Shopping:

• 1861: the cutest clothing store in the world
• Browns: shoes, shoes and more shoes!

Things to do: 

• walk up the mountain: especially in the fall with all the leaves changing colour
• Parc Lafontaine: skate here in the winter! 
• Jeanne-Mance Park: volleyball, soccer, tennis, baseball...
• Old Town (Vieux Port): fireworks, art galleries, restaurants, jugglers and unicycles 
• Atwater Market & Jean-Talon Market 
• Science Centre, Biodome, Botanical Gardens, Olympic Stadium 
• Place Des Arts: Jazz Festival, Just for Laughs...
• Lachine Canal: long runs and bike rides, paddle boating and more!  
• St. Joseph's Oratory 
• study at the Atwater Library and the Westmount Library

The Little Things: 

• buskers along St Catherines (and in the metro)
