Maynard's allows us to completely rethink our concept of a good comforting snack. They were the first vegan restaurant to obtain the "Aliments du Québec" certification, which guarantees freshness and quality of ingredients at all times. We'll be tempted by their current menu, but watch out for their mac and cheese, pogos, and burgers, which are to die for.

If you're familiar with the concept of izakaya (Japanese tapas), you should definitely check out Umami. Aside from tapas, they serve the best vegan ramen in town and have an impressive sake menu.

Café Dei Campi is the first Italian pastry shop in Montreal. They offer a wide variety of desserts that taste like heaven. Our favorites are the fauxtella donuts and the zeppoles. But, you have to be on the lookout. They don't serve their doughnuts daily and the zeppoles only appear once a year, a bit like Santa Claus, but for the feast of San Giuseppe.
