tatB Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 A few months ago I was planning on going but then I made appointments to start my backpiece in 2015 so the smart thing to do would be stay home and save my money for that huge project. But Montreal is only a 5 hour drive away....

Pugilist Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Yesssssssss we are really looking forward to it! @BrianH it just so happens the b&b I suggested to you guys is like, two blocks from the bar that @Graeme suggested for a meetup. We are both getting tattooed on Friday evening so we're definitely down for a Saturday evening meetup if that works with your tattoo schedules! Also let us know if you need suggestions for any food/stuff to see. There is a lot of cool stuff happening in the city right now!

Pugilist Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Ok, re: poutine - the most famous poutine place in the city is La Banquise, which is an easy walk from where you're staying (maybe 20 min?). The poutine is ok, not amazing, but it is open 24 hours. We think our favourite poutine is at a diner we only recently discovered in our neighbourhood, also a quick walk for you guys (and also 24 hours!) called the Resto du Village. It's an otherwise unremarkable little diner, but their poutine is pretty good. Also a short walk from you guys is Poutineville, a newish local chain that allows you to customize and make crazy poutines, and while it's a bit sacrilegious to mess with the classic poutine formula, theirs is actually really good! Re: sights, the two really cool things around right now are: 1) the mosaiculstures at the botanical gardens. It's an international topiary competition, which I know sounds stupid, but I've been twice now and it's genuinely amazing. Plus it's a beautiful place to walk around. The entrance fee is kind of obnoxiously pricey though. 2) We are actually headed this afternoon to check out the Chihuly exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts. It is supposed to be really amazing: Chihuly : Utterly Breathtaking | Montreal Museum of Fine Arts Otherwise, it is always wonderful to walk up the mountain (it takes maybe an hour to walk up there from the bottom, and it gives you a lovely view), have smoked meat at Schwartz's (expect a long line-up but it moves quickly), get St-Viateur bagels (best bagels in the world, and open 24 hours), and wander around eating pastries and coffee, etc. If you want to do a splurge meal, Au Pied de Cochon is probably the city's most famous restaurant - it is Quebecois food reinvented and stuffed full of fois gras. Huge portions and insanely rich but delicious! You'd want to reserve for that like, right now though, as it really books up. tatB 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/3480-art-tattoo-montreal-2013/?page=2#findComment-73432 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugilist Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 :( If we could, we'd totally invite you guys to stay with us if that made the trip more affordable - @Graeme's parents are with us right now though and will be through the convention.

Wilhell Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 @Pugilist, good choice! That is going to be a hell of a killer tattoo. Looking forward to see a picture of it. And thank you for kind words! I am getting a hannya mask/snake on my thigh. Are you going for a big tattoo?
