This little shop is located in Old Montreal. It's quaint, colourful and inviting. I was in Montreal with my daughter for her birthday and we didn't have a cake so we got two super cute cupcakes for her birthday cake from here. They looked so good. Unfortunately they did not taste as good as they looked to me. I'm a Crave(shops here in Calgary) fan and these did not measure up. I found them too sugary. I am a sweet lover... so it wasn't about being too sweet. They tasted like I was simply eating sugar. My daughter on the other hand really liked them. We split the red velvet one and the vanilla flower one(both pictured in the photos on the site). The staff was meh. Not really friendly or unfriendly.

i felt totally out of place walking in here. a crowded little spot with a whole bunch of white people singing to "sweet home alabama" while two men in tshirts pound on back to back pianos. oh boy... if i ever felt like a minority it was then. BUT the service was really friendly. they didn't look at all of us weird. they sat us down, offered us some drinks and told us how the place works: you drink, you sing along, you request and tip if you feel like. a few drinks and rock songs later and i was FEELIN it! haha. well, once the white guys did their version of "I'm on a boat" i felt a bit more comfortable... then they did "d*ck in a box" and then some song that repeated "you b*tch, you slut, you whore" over and over again. Yeah.... it was a fun night!! i didn't get a chance to eat anything or explore the bar much. the alcohol and loud music kind of distracted me. don't come here alone, it will be weird. good for nights out with the guys or girls.

Many Vegas locals claim they never visit the Strip because it's too expensive and full of pesky tourists. Not me. One of my favorite places in Vegas is Carnaval Court at Harrah's. I first walked into Carnaval Court three years ago when I first moved to Vegas, and it's now become my second home. Why? Because it's one of those bars that doesn't have that "Strip" feel even though it's smack dab in the middle of the thing. The bartenders put on an amazing show, the drinks are strong enough to put you three times over the limit with one glass, the live band (The Crashers) seems to always be a crowd favorite, and you can always expect your shoes to be stuck to the floor by the end of the night. It's not just any bar, though. As well as the live music, there's a free show at the bar, too, courtesy of the flair bartenders (my favorites are Duane and Rene), who juggle three bottles at a time or balance a stack on their head topped off with a little fire (really, fire). There are even go-go dancers and a hookah bar, both new introductions in the last couple of months, as well as games of blackjack being played on the patio. Beers start at $7 for a Bud or $11 for a well drink, and there's a cover charge on weekends, even for women, but I think it's well worth it. If drinking, dancing, gambling and seeing some great flair bar tending is your thing, come on down to Carnaval Court and see why I keep coming back.

Another new food stall in Mekong Plaza. Chinese. Short but interesting menu. Everything is "home made" including the noodles. Pretty good. 3 1/2 rounded up to 4.
