Choice Cuts + Undiscovered Secrets

Claire | July 29th, 2010


Choice cuts often come from unsuspecting places.  Those little places you could easily wander by without a second glance unless you already knew they were there.  These places are often where the most magical buried treasures lie.  Whether seeking food and drink, music, a new outfit or an iced cappuccino made with a little extra care and attention, you may just get even more than what you were originally hoping for.As far as clothing is concerned, for chic locally-designed and handmade clothes and accessories for the femme fatale in you, Unicorn on St-Laurent is the place to go.  If you are more of a vintage chicka, Local 23 may be more up your alley, with clothing, shoes, and accessories from the 50′s, 60′s, 70′s and beyond.  If you are in search of a super turbo-powered caffeinated beverage done right, take a cruise by Olympico, or Cafe Myriade.  For vino and fine charcuterie selections, complemented by eclectic music mixed by the local DJ-du-jour go to Reservoir or La Buvette.  Or if you are feeling more in the mood for a cocktail and an intimate indie concert by a band like Caribou or Toro y Moi, check the calendar at La Tulippe, an unassuming hole-in-the-wall kinda bar that will suck you right in.
