Ah Svend
Excellent info! Some of which brings back memories.
My son lived on a parallel street on Rue St. Denis for 3 of his 4 years in montreal.
All of the streets you mention ring a bell.

And would love to hear recommendations of where to eat in Montreal.
My son was really fond of a few places that were mostly student oriented, so it would be fun to
try a more adult perspective.

And Poutine is off the menu, please!

Loved your suggestions for Quebec City. Aided and abetted by Max 501 who also recommended Chateau De Frontenac.
We will probably splurge and do a night or two there.
There is a restaurant in Quebec, which I ate at previously, that had a menu based on colonial
fare. Though greatly updated I am sure!
The food was good and different.
Boar anyone?

Really liked your suggestions of the  east end of Quebec with local fare.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for all info.
Looking forward to a bit of summer biking and eating.
Because clearly, this trip requires "degustation" or whatever the word in french is.
