Hidden Gems of MTL! A great variety of drinks, specializing in absinthe & whiskey! We tried a smoking lisa. On Sundays, you can enjoy oysters for just a dollar! The only problem was that I think there was a mistake with our bill, as they charged us for nachos twice. We ordered nachos once, & for the next round of drinks, we asked for fries. However, the waiter brought both fries & nachos. We told him we didn't order nachos again, so he took them back, but it seems we were still charged for the extra nachos we didn't have!
