Spring Break pt.1 | Mont Royal & Juliette et Chocolat

Hello All

Its Spring Break.. WOOP WOOP

So no Cuba for me unfortunately so what better way to spend reading week than doing as little reading as possible and instead, to go out and explore whats on our (slightly more chilly) door step!!

Day One

Strawberry Daiquiris = YUM
So we kick started our Spring Break first by heading to one of our favourite mexican restaurants, even if it is just for the Strawberry Daiquiris - 3 Amigos
Unfortunately since we started drinking at 4pm... we were tipsy and tired by 10pm and called it an early night... We Know how to Party!!!



Day Two

Brrrrr @ Mont Royal

Enjoying our tea and Chocolate treats at Juliette et Chocolat
White Chocolate and Raspberry Cheesecake and tropical Green tea


With the sun shining and the temperature being above -10c we thought a perfect we headed up to the top of Mont Royal to see the city and to get some good picture. After our mini hick we stayed on the mountain and headed down towards Le Plateau for a look around the shops and an afternoon tea trip to Juliette et Chocolat. 

Luckily on a Monday afternoon this sought our chocolate shop/ cafe wasn't crazy busy and we got seated right away and started the mammoth task of decided which of all the amazing sounding desserts we were all going to try. The selection at Juliette et Chocolat is incredible; from crepes to brownies, Cheesecakes to ice creams this place had every indulgent chocolate treat imaginable!! Settling on an tropical green tea and a white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake I was not disappointed with my treat of choice... even if the tea pot could have been a little bigger... but maybe thats just because I'm British and can never quite have enough tea!!
The Staff were also excellent and happily let us sit there for around 2 hours without badgering us to leave, something i find common in little places of this nature!

All in all we had a rather enjoyable, if not very demure first few days of Spring Break. But with our own personal St. Laurent pub crawl planned for tomorrow,
watch this space!!

Thats All for Now
