Terrasse season means every restaurant is now 40 percent sidewalk and honestly the city is better for it
Six months from now we'll all be eating indoors at 5pm because it's dark and hostile outside. Right now? Every street from Mont-Royal to Wellington has tables where parking used to be, and dinner comes with people-watching included. The move is the unfashionable terrasse on the side street. Same kitchen quality, half the wait, and the servers actually have time to tell you what's good.

Create an accountLa terrasse de côté, c'est la sagesse. Ma préférée a quatre tables, un parasol qui date des années 90, pis le meilleur steak-frites du quartier. Je donnerai pas l'adresse. Chialez pas, trouvez la vôtre.
40 percent sidewalk et 100 percent raison. The parking spot terrasses are the best civic trade this city ever made. Une table beats une Honda Civic every time.
