A time to remember
Food scene
Eat great food on Cartier - there's also a great local grocery store to buy meat, fresh fruits and vegetables. At Cartier's mall you can also buy fresh fish and seafood + cheese! You will find great restaurants (I recommend: Graffiti and Bistro B for more French cuisine and Metropolitan for sushi) and café (Krieghoff). There's a SAQ to buy alcool, pharmacy, cinema and grocery stores.
TIP: if you plan strolling Grande-Allée or Plains at lunch, stop at Fastoche in Cartier's hall to grab a sandwich or baguette to go and eat on the Plains across the street (go behind the art museum you'll have a nice view).
