Again, according to their online database, they are out of stock on 68
and there are currently 886 available in outlets, and of the 280 that
are available on line, 100% are available in outlets.
Your facts are wrong.

In your article you write: “Les données compilées par M. Gagnon…”
Does he work for the SAQ? and if he does, why do you write “le
chroniqueur en vin et éditeur du magazine Webvinquebec.com, Marc André
Gagnon.” Instead of something like SAQ VP of Database Marc André
Gagnon?
Click on the link to the SAQ’s website that I sent you. The numbers do
not correspond.

Il faut calculer seulement les bouteilles de vins de 750 ml. Pas les
formats de 250 ml, de 500 ml, d’un litre et le 1,5 litre.

Dude, it’s the 3rd different excuse you’ve tried. Your credibility is shot.

I’m not quite certain what to make of it, although now, there are 945 wines available at the SAQ that are under $15. Of those 774 are in 750ml containers.

I uploaded a new Montreal Restaurant List. Some of the places I visited that made it over to the Done and Worth Going Back side of the page are: Chez Ma Tante, Plâts De Pates Hong Mère, Casa Minhota, Gibeau Orange Julep, Prohibition, Les Temps Nouveaux and La Tornade.

As per normal, a simple comparison to the previous list will let you know which restaurants didn’t make the cut.

There’s a new and updated Montreal restaurant list available. New to the Done and Worth Going Back side are Burgundy Lion, La Drinkerie Ste.Cunégonde, l’Espace Public, Evoo, Nacho Libre, Piesanna, Le Seingalt and La Succursale. Although most were added to the Good Places to Drink section. It seems that I have figured out how to handle the cold…
I’ll leave it up to you to figure out which restaurants are no longer on the list.

I’ve updated the Montreal Restaurant List. L’Arrivage, Cocagne, Hotel Herman, Le Renard, La Soupiere made it from the To Try side to the Done and Worth Going Back side. I also added a bunch of Sandwich places (I guess I’m trying to do lunch more often) along with Inferno, Manger Avec Eric, Café Mardi Gras, Rodizio Brasil and Santa Barbara, among others.

Howdy!
I’ve updated the Montreal Restaurant List. A couple of places have been taken off the “to try” side, some to disappear forever some to make to the “done and worth going back side.” And there have been some additions to the “to try” side as well. I’ve also added a list of “Must Eat” dishes at some iconic restaurants in town.

It’s been a while. We jump from version 3.01 to 3.04. Numerous changes all over the place, both on the places to try side and on the worthwhile side. On top of that I also did some changes to the formatting. Hopefully, it will make it easier to read. Zeke’s October Montreal Restaurant List.
