Convinced hubbie to join me for 4 nites while I am attending a conference in Montreal late June.
Any suggestions for:
1) dinner near Museum of Fine Arts on Wed nite
2) weekday breakfast near Hotel de la Montagne (where we are staying) or Sheraton Centre (conference hotel)
3) business lunch near Sheraton Centre
4) dinner options (L'Express is definitely on my list, loved it several years ago)
5) breakfast/brunch on Saturday
6) food at or near Jazz Festival on Saturday
7) dinner near (or on way to) good free fireworks view on Saturday nite (have received suggestions of Au Petit Extra, Bistroa D-Sens, Le Grain de Sel but don’t know relative prices etc.)
8) weekday diner/burger/ethnic fun places for hubbie to grab breakfast or lunch by himself (he already has Schwartz's on his list)
We know we want to visit Atwater and Jean Talon markets but they are a bit far to grab breakfast or lunch while I am attending the conference, so I may have to wait until Friday afternoon & Saturday morning.
We do have some dietary restrictions (me--no wheat, hubbie--no milk products) which means no pizza/pasta/sandwiches/bagels for me, and no pizza for hubbie.
Thanks so much.
Need help planning meals for 4 days & nites in Montreal

I am not an authority on Montreal - I go there to visit my daughter - but try to go to the Jean Talon market on Saturday morning. It has an excellent atmosphere and I would not miss it for the world. I have two restaurants that I have experienced recently. The first is Le P'tit Plateau. This was one of the best meals I have ever had and I have eaten in many restaurants thoughout the world. It is a BYOB place which is great as it keeps the price down to a very reasonable $35 for three courses.The owner is the chef and what he offers up is outstanding. The second is Le Poisson Rouge, which was very good and is a family run place and also a BYOB place. If you google both places, you will find maps for both. They are quite accessible to your location. Enjoy
