The Bulletin: Montreal tops the charts in restaurant list while another institution shutters [Issue #25]

Happy birthday, Montreal: May 17th marked the city's birthday, and to celebrate, we experienced a sudden cold snap and snow in the middle of the day.

And yet, the vibes were high. For every single sardonic newsletter writer out there thinking the weather couldn't get any worse, people have taken to social media with words of hope and pride for what is one of the greatest cities in the world.

The city is ramping up with opening after opening, terrasses are being set up on every street, and we crushed it in the Canada's 100 Best restaurants list. Love it or hate it, we are barreling forward without over-thinking anything for a second. There's a 36-hour-long party in the Old Port this weekend, the festivals will soon begin, and we're all out there catching rays the moment it's +15 degrees.
