Where to eat cheap food in Montreal? make dumplings at home


My girlfriend decided to make dumplings over the weekend. The ingredients were pork, shrimp, and vegetables. All of those were already available at home. The only thing we needed was to buy the dumpling wraps and the dumpling sauce for a total of $5. We made around 40 dumplings and finished them all. They were delicious. I even helped in making one dumpling, the one on the left in the second picture above. Looking good, right?

Where to eat in Montreal? review of Bar B Barn


Last Friday, I went to the Bar B Barn, Home of the world's greatest spareribs & chicken, with my girlfriend and two other friends. The ribs were good, but I would not call them the world's greatest. The portions were big. All four of us ordered the 6 ribs combo and none of us were able to finish. We ended up with 6 leftover ribs, which we took home. The price was fair. The service was good. Total cost at the end: $53 for two.

Where to eat cheap food in Montreal? special at Biftheque


Where to eat cheap food in Montreal? From May 27 to June 2, the Biftheque is offering a special for shrimp or filet mignon for only $16.95. This looks like a good deal to me since I had to pay more than $20 for a filet mignon the last time I went. One very tasty price indeed!

Where to eat cheap food in Montreal? review of Chao Phraya


Where to eat in Montreal? We went to eat at Chao Phraya, a Thai restaurant on Friday night. They have a menu on their website which plays an annoying music and can't be turned off. Anyways, we were 8 person and shared some food together. My favorites were the mango salad and the seafood soup with coconut milk. The food was generally ok, some of the plates were a little bit too sweet and it was a bit expensive: $40 per person tax and tip included. Not a very cheap night in Montreal!
