3734 – How long does it take it to remember these numbers?

3734 – How long does it take it to remember these numbers?

I’m not familiar with St-Henri restaurants. But it seems like there are many new restaurants popping out in this neighborhood. I feel like it’s the new IT place. I won’t complain because finding free parking is not a problem. But if restaurants opening keep going at this rate, it might become a problem!

I think 3734 is the least known out of all the restaurants opening in St-Henri. I actually never heard of it until Eatwitheva recommended to me. That’s good because it means no line up!

Cafe International: The pro

Cafe International: The pro

International Café had been passed on by 3 families since its opening in 1968. After so many years of operations and still standing strong on St-Laurent at Little Italy, they must be doing something right.

Marco Arcaro, Chef of Café International, did not deviate from International Café success and has maintained the traditional Italian cuisine flawlessly.

I had the pleasure of meeting Marco. I remembered being surprise at his His laid back and down-to-earth yet passionate character was emitted throughout the conversation. I learned so much about cooking techniques and the food industry.

Bateau-Mouche in Old Port – Romantic celebration

Bateau-Mouche in Old Port – Romantic celebration

I started with a great plan, but bad cards were in my hand no matter how I played them. I reserved a few months in advance for a dinner cruise at Bateau-Mouche. They operate around May till October. Just in time to celebrate my anniversary with Mr.Butter.  How romantic right? Enjoying the nice water of the St-Lawrence river on a boat.

The boarding time was at 6:30pm and the boat would depart at 7pm. I told Mr.Butter to pick me up at 5pm, so we would have enough time to stroll around Old Port and eventually walk all the way to the Jacques Cartier Quai, where we would take the boat. Surprise!

That was how the plan was suppose to unfold, but things went out of my control. Thankfully, Bateau-Mouche saved the day at the end.
