On the Saturday we actually had a rinse and repeat day, train back to Montreal, same hotel and then off to see IQ in concert again. All good but not exciting to write about. (Girls – ed.)
Sunday turned into foodie day. I wanted to have crepes for breakfast and after googling it, the most highly rated was a 20 minute walk, down towards old town. It was called Madison Bagatelle and it did not disappoint.



We walked back down Rue St Paul, the main street in old town and noticed the queues outside of Olives and Gourmand. We walked back to the hotel and then got a message on facebook from a trusted friend that said we should definitely visit Olive and Gourmand, what a coincidence. We decided to walk back down there and after a 30 minute wait, we sat inside and were treated to a great atmosphere and really good food. I had a 3 cheese panini with caramelized onions, Rob had a chicken melt sandwich.


We rounded out the night with a visit to Siam, a Thai restaurant. I asked for a non sweet cocktail and was presented with a Green Garden. It was delicious as was the Duck curry we both ate.


Up early on Monday and off to the airport, we boarded our flight about 30 mins late but after another 45 minutes we got back off. There was a mechanical issue and they had no idea when it would be fixed. We were able to transfer to another flight and after 9 hours at the airport we were finally on the way back to Atlanta.
Reflections on the visit, even though Quebec City was the place I was really looking forward to visiting, I preferred Montreal. Old town in Quebec City although very pretty, was also quite touristy in my opinion. Also once outside of the main area, there were countless homeless people and the streets were strewn with rubbish. It is an “in between” season, no snow but also no greenery yet, so maybe another visit at a different time
