Was there twice, last time was June this year. Brilliant City with loads to do. As Superdave was saying, Rue St Catherine especially, is the main street with everything on it. Make sure you see the old part of the city down by the waterfront as well, we completely missed that part first time round and its brilliant down there. If you climb( i say climb cause its a fair walk up a large hill) Mont Real behind McGill University you can see everything from up there and theres a lovely park for Picnic's and Cycling etc.

Lovely city. Incredible restaurants. Red Thai on St.Laurent is fantastic value and as in most thai restaurants the service is excellent. La Queue de Cheval is one of the premier steakhouses. Forgot the street name but a word or two of advice. Expect the biggest bill you will ever haver in your life and whatever you do.......do not ask for your steak to be well done. The chef might come over to your table and shove a knife down your throat..........seri ously.

Some of the reviews i've seen for de Chevel have been atrocious i must say. Maybe i caught it on a good night !
