· Wine bar Le Comptoir had a small, incognito role on the most recent episode of a new ABC drama. Quantico stars Bollywood mega star, and former Miss World, Priyanka Chopra, and was shot over several weeks in Montreal. Le Comptoir was made over as a fictional New York restaurant called Bistro on 7th for the episode. Chopra plays an FBI recruit suspected of a terror attack on the show, which airs on CTV in Canada. See how many other Montreal landmarks you can spot on the episode here. Incidentally, Le Comptoir just celebrated its fifth anniversary.
