Think sophistication. Think Navia Tapas Martinis also known simply as Navia. Located in West Island, Montreal just walking in, the amount of people sitting at the bar is amazing. With a dim romanticized lighting bouncing off the deep red walls of the bar filled with liquor bottles simply spelt classic elegance to me. However, I wasn’t into the dance music that was playing as I walked in. It somehow interfered with the sophisticated theme that the place was going for. It didn’t work. Read More |

Burlington’s rustic Church Street lends itself to some of Vermont’s most appealing shops and eateries. And on a cold, cloudy, and damp Saturday afternoon, this appeal drew me and two friends into Three Tomatoes Trattoria. Walking down Church Street, Three Tomatoes doesn’t pop out unless you are looking for a seemingly less crowded place to grab a quick bite to eat. Once you open the door to the glass interface assuring you that indeed, there is a restaurant somewhere beyond these doors, you descend down a slight spiral stairwell. The walls are made of stone and you begin to feel romanticized by the thought of going into an underground dwelling of Italian cuisine. |

First, a disclaimer: one should not make the Beaver Club restaurant an every-weekend stop. To begin with, there’s the matter of the Grand Canyon-sized hole such a move would create in your wallet. Looking at the prices on the menus of the historic establishment in Montreal’s Queen Elizabeth Hotel is not a venture for the faint-hearted. With appetizers ranging from $16 to $25 and main dishes all falling in the $40 range, this is not the kind of restaurant you typically frequent on a “oh, let’s go out to eat” sort of whim. Dinner at the Beaver Club is a special event. Read More |

Few authors from the North Country write books about the supernatural. However, Justin Gustainis, a professor at SUNY Plattsburgh, has written a novel called Black Magic Woman: A Quincey Morris Supernatural Investigation. This novel is a delightful blend of Bram Stoker and Carolyn Keene. Read More |

There were pounds of pasta, greasy garlicky rolls, simple salads, and monster mozzarella sticks. That was just an alliteration to grab your attention because unfortunately you can’t include the heavenly scent of what’s cooking in San Marino II to get you to read on. Read More |
