The best was when I lived on laval, right off the Carre St. Louis... they got rid of all the drug dealers and it was the perfect location...

My favourite era in the Montreal years!

And the Plateau for the win! And yeah, don't say your address, I don't live there anymore so I'm okay...

There was a micro brasserie I used to go to all the time, it burnt down, corner of Mont Royal and St. Laurent? They had honey beer in the summer, LOVED that place...

not le cheval blanc but.... do you know it?

Cheval Blanc is Greg's favourite Montreal beer! I lived on Laval too, next to the Carré St-Louis, hmmm, in 1987. Dieu du Ciel, on Laurier close to St-Laurent is my favourite microbrasserie now (but, I don't drink that much beer, so, beer forums may be a better resource than me)

Barouf burnt down, but that is on St-Denis, they did reopen.

Love cheval blanc but I want so much to remember the name of this place, it's not Barouf... well, i guess I'll have to search.

I lived on laval from 1994 to 1999, so I guess we weren't neighbors!
