Maison Publique is much more than a “little neighbourhood pub”. The humblebrag schtick is of the moment but who’s he kidding: Dammann is one of the top chefs in Montreal. [Eater 38 Member]

The restaurant Lesley Chesterman called 2012's "most exciting" and "a wish come true", was not first to bring branché nuevo latino to the city. But nobody is doing it this well. [Eater 38 Member]
Colin Perry’s ode to his native Kentucky serves up the finger lickin’ goods but beyond the fried chicken (which is the best in the city) you have to admire Triple Crown’s audacity. [Eater 38 Member]

A close-knit crew, led by partners Tim Rozon, Kyle Marshall Nares and general manager Jessica Midlash, still make this Old Montreal spot one of the indefatigable places to be. [Eater 38 Member] Leia mais.
