Allo toi 😊
The city exhales its first breath of winter.
Silence drifts over the water,
and everything feels both fragile and infinite. #JolicoeurBridge #Montreal

Montreal’s freezing, but my husky’s fighting for survival… on the couch, under central heating. Truly a northern warrior. 😒 #Montreal

Jambon-beurre and cappuccino kind of morning, discovering a new skate shop just as the first light snow drifts through Montréal. Simple pleasures, city rhythms, and the warmth of good coffee against the chill outside.

Founded in Quebec City ten years ago under the name Galerie 3, the gallery became Chiguer Art Contemporain in 2022. It then expanded by establishing itself in Montreal, within the Belgo Building, in the heart of downtown #QuebecCity

Built in 1915 by the Canadian Pacific Railway, Gare du Palais is a masterpiece of château-style architecture. With its copper roofs, golden brickwork, and elegant stone turrets, it was designed by architect H.E. Prindel as both a gateway and a statement of pride. #QuebecCity

Found this little guy guarding the Casse-Cou stairs. Pretty sure he’s made of spare parts and pure chaos. 😬 #EscalierCasseCou #QuebecCity

The Old Port of Quebec, once a bustling trading hub where ships carried furs and timber across the Atlantic, now welcomes sailboats, cruise ships, and Sunday wanderers. The old warehouses have turned into galleries, cafés, and restaurants, but the spirit of the waterfront remains. #QuebecCity

Michelin-starred dining where every bite feels like a secret whispered through centuries of stone. I couldn’t even tell you what this was, only that it was exquisite. Mysterious, delicate, and unforgettable, the kind of dish that reminds you memory isn’t required for pleasure #QuebecCity

Tucked between taller neighbors, this charming stone house is one of Old Québec’s oldest surviving homes, built around 1725. Typical of French colonial urban architecture, it combines residence and workshop under one steep roof. #QuebecCity

An immersive five-course dining experience that blurs the line between theater, gastronomy, and dream. “La vie, la mort, le dessert” unfolds under a luminous dome transformed into a living forest, a poetic journey through life, death, and rebirth #montreal

Marc-Aurèle Fortin’s Saint-Siméon (c.1938) is a lyrical celebration of Quebec’s light and landscape. The composition feels alive with movement, the winding road, the rhythmic trees, and the layered blues of the mountains guiding the eye toward the horizon. #Montreal

Dropped by Pizzeria Locali, a cozy new spot in the neighborhood, and went straight for their all dressed
A 11” pizza layered with pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, mozzarella, and fior di latte, crisp on the edges, soft and chewy inside, with just the right touch of smoky tomato sauce #Montreal

Kezna Dalz’s mural “Ne m’oublie pas” stands out as both vibrant and heartbreaking. Its candy-colored palette contrasts powerfully with its message, a tribute to women lost to femicide and domestic violence. The work reminding us that silence is never an option #Montreal

Morning light spills over the quiet Place d’Armes. The tourists still sleep, and for a moment, the city belongs to the leaves, the pigeons, and me. 😊 #PlacedArmes #Montreal

garnachas filled with chicharrón prensado and requesón, cactus salad, and chilaquiles bathed in morita sauce with perfect eggs, beans, queso fresco, and red onion.
Finished with a tropical French toast layered with maracuya cream, pineapple compote, coconut crunch, and a splash of rum #Montreal

Jean-François Briere’s About Forms and Structures is a quiet dialogue between light and matter. Through analog experimentation, the artist transforms expired paper into architectural memory, ghostly geometries caught between shadow and illumination. #Montreal

The Golden Room, once the crown jewel of Eaton’s 9th floor restaurant, opened in 1931 and designed by Jacques Carlu in pure Art Deco elegance. After decades of silence and restoration, it still glows with the same quiet opulence, mirrors reflecting infinity, brass gleaming like time itself #Montreal

Montreal’s streets are alive with beauty, where even a quiet corner can bloom into art. Jade Bilodeau’s mural reminds me how this city wears its creativity on every wall, turning concrete into poetry, and color into joy. #Montreal

I always come here when I need to breathe.
Beaver Lake never tries to impress, it just exists, quietly perfect.
The wind, the water, the rustling leaves, they remind me that stillness can also be alive. #BeaverLake #Montreal

Mount Royal Cemetery, where Victorian Montreal once came to stroll among the dead, not in fear but in reflection.
On Halloween, this quiet hill reminds us that remembrance was once a celebration, not of ghosts, but of life itself. #MountRoyalCemetery #Montreal

A 22 oz grilled rib steak, seared to smoky tenderness, served with fresh asparagus and their signature Monte Carlo potato loaded with sour cream, bacon and chives.
The kind of dinner that reminds you why classics never go out of style. 😊 #Gibbys #Montreal
