Problem: Jusqu'ici je n'etais jamais entree dans la boutique et ce pour une raison simple : les mannequins dans la vitrine me faisaient peur! Or en entrant aujourd'hui, la vendeuse m'accueille avec un joyeux : " Alors, on a ete attiree par la belle vitrine, hein?! ".... Petit moment de silence embarrassant, sourire gene... Voila pour la petite anecdote. Ensuite la tres bavarde vendeuse m'a explique qu'ils etaient depositaire d'une dizaine de createurs quebecois et que l'une des marques, Aime comme Moi, etait la leur. Pour ma part je n'ai rien trouve qui etait a mon gout. Ni a mon budget d'ailleurs. Finalement les mannequins dans la vitrine etaient un bon avertissement!

Problem: The Spot: Amidst the hustle and bustle that is Crescent Street, tucked in between tourist traps and "trendy" restaurants, lies the stand-alone menswear boutique, Boutique Tozzi. Behind grey stone walls and large windows lies a store that found the perfect balance between sleek and cozy with its wooden minimalism, Zen influence and warm lighting. Even more noteworthy, though, is its collection of high-end brands that exude affordable luxury and are sure to bring any man's fashion dreams to reality without having to venture any further than to our city's main core. Its owner, Joey Tozzi, opened the boutique in 2010 after a decade of experience as a fashion buyer. No surprise, then, to see the extensive selection of clothing and accessories the boutique offers, expertly tied together in a coherent whole. What's Really Good? Boutique Tozzi is nothing short of a one stop shop for the complete head-to-toe menswear outfit. With sought-after brands like Nudie Jeans Co, Fillipa K, Naked & Famous and Oliver Spencer, it would easily have been anticipated for only carrying apparel, right? Well, instead, you can also find sunglasses by Tom Ford, Dsquared, Carrera and Dior; footwear by Sorel, Gram, and Creative Recreation, as well as jewelry, socks, belts and watches. They also carry a small (but thorough) collection of men's colognes, because sometimes you just don't want pushy sales people spritzing your face as you try to peruse and find the perfect scent. Oh, and they are home to a killer selection of bags by Fullum & Holt and Filson. And yes, they even carry SWIMS umbrellas. You'll Wanna Know: It is the only store in Montreal to carry Tsovet watches, an upscale California-bred brand inspired by avionics, retro motor gauges and other industrial tools. The friendly and extremely knowledgeable owner Joey Tozzi will more than likely be the face that greets and serves you while you peruse through his very well-curated selection of menswear, but don't forget to take a peek at the many accessories behind the counter. In 2011, the store won (and deserved) Montreal's Grand Prix du Design for a commercial space of less than 1,600 square feet. In other words, it looks great.

Problem: I'm no expert when it comes to Mediterranean food but nom nom!! The owners are always very nice and pleasant. The food always tastes fresh and yummy. The wife told us that her husband gets their olive oil from a very far away country (I totally forget where) and it takes a month to arrive- cray cray.. (okay so you caught me, I took a mental vacation the minute she expelled the details and was back to catch the end of it-oopsie for having A.D.D.) So they have the three meat options: Chicken, Beef and Lamb, all on a huge skewer, cooker, rotater thing and the boyfriend always gets chicken wrap thing (don't know the technical correct term for it) and it comes with a small salad and rice (or fries). Whatever they use to cook that rice is absolutely tasty and delicious!! They also have skewers of meat. baba ghanoush deserves a paragraph of it's own. HELLO!! So the first time we went, I ordered the hummus and inquired about the baba ghanoush (I had no idea what it was?!). The owner was nice enough to give us a little sample and to my surprise, I actually prefer the baba G over Hummus?! So super delicious!! And the Pita, ohhhhh the Pita, so warm, fresh and good- I could eat just the pita by itself! And for the price, you get a very generous serving and trust me, you'll love it! Now we order an extra side of pita because that bad boy doesn't stand a chance! So Miss. Vegetarian over here gets the filafel. Sometimes I order it as a sandwich/wrap thing and sometimes I just get the balls plain with the rice and salad. There's absolutely no guilt eating here because everything tastes so darn fresh and good!! ...and we never order the french fries... The last time we were there, we got stuck behind two other orders and it took a loooonnnnggg time.... but we weren't in a rush... and to be quite frank, we didn't mind much... and I'd rather have fresh cooked food (just like making it at home) and waiting....than frozen heated up food, or stale food for that matter. BUT I must put it into perspective, we would have waited just as long at Cheesecake Factory or some other large restaurant for our food... so what's the difference??? none. only love for this place. So anywho, give this place a shot, I think they deserve a fighting chance in our neighborhood. Good, simple, healthy eats and genuinely nice owners behind that counter.

Problem: Wish they had more stars to put.. Love Love this place. Probably one of my fav. places in the valley. I'd like to go for weekend brunch , sometimes during lunch too., even though this place is far for me:) It has variety of veggie options. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for food items fresh in season.
