Montreal!

Last weekend I went to Montreal. It was a lot of fun (and a lot of good food). On Friday night we ate at Thursday's, which was very, very yummy. No pictures, unfortunately. I had steak Parisian style, which came with fries and green beans, all very good. The bread was also delicious. For dessert, I had "Les bananes flambées, rhum appleton et sa glace à l'anis" (Banana flambéed with rum served with anise ice cream). It was also yummy. It was hard to choose a dessert, because everything sounded so delicious.

On Saturday morning (er...afternoon, by the time we were finally up) we went to Chez Cora for breakfast. This place was wonderful. I ordered (I don't remember the menu name) a crêpe with custard and fresh fruit (bananas, grapes, kiwi, peaches, pineapple, and bananas). It was the biggest crêpe I have ever seen in my life. This thing was HUGE! It was also delicious. I didn't manage to finish the whole thing, but I think I would have been a little appalled if I had. It was definitely enough for two people.

C ordered the "Récolte 90," which was french toast made with brioche, an egg over easy, bacon, and lots and lots of fresh fruit (this place was really big on fruit). He also got a yummy smoothie.
Here are more pictures from Chez Cora on a random website I found (it's in French).

After brunch, C and I went to the Biodome to see animals. I couldn't use flash, so my pictures came out mostly blurry (I do not have a study hand, hence one of the reaons I will never be a surgeon). Here are two that came out okay.

I liked this guy. He sat on that branch for a long time while I watched him. Cute. Many, many more pictures on their website. Ahhh, I love animals.
