GRIFFINTOWN— Bloggers, publicists and restaurants often make for strange bedfellows in Montreal but one restaurant has taken it a step further. The Griffintown outpost of Sushi Taxi recently had five bloggers concoct items for the restaurant's summer menu. [maybejefflee]

WORLD CUP— Several Montreal restaurants have gone the extra mile for the 2014 FIFA World Cup but few more than Gus. [Twitter]

QUARTIER DES SPECTACLES— Now we can call it. The second Accords restaurant from Tout le monde en parle host Guy A. Lepage and co. officially opens ce soir on the corner of Saint-Laurent and Sainte-Catherine. Just in time for Les FrancoFolies too. [Facebook]
