Happy Hour at Le Richmond
Your next happy hour should definitely take place at hot spot Le Richmond, where life is always a party. And, from March 7th to 13th, you can receive a glass of Lanson Champagne, oysters, proscuitto platter and foie gras torchon for only 22$ per person. Not bat at all considering the average cost of a glass of champagne alone ! An amazing deal at an amazing place.

Dinner at Perles & Paddock
Perles & Paddock is a gorgeous and happening restaurant that recently launched a revamped menu and concept. And, for Festival G. they are also offering a fairly interesting dinner menu that you must check out. For 42$ per person, receive: 1 cocktail or glass of bubbly, oysters, 3 savory dishes to mix & match and 1 dessert. Considering all small plates at P&P (for those in the known) are amazing, it would be a shame to miss the opportunity to try four of them at such a small price.

Brunch at Burgundy Lion
Brunch just got better at Pub Burgundy Lion : for a limited time, receive a complimentary glass of mimosa with your choice of main (what about the Full English Breakfast plate?) and, in addition, you will also get desserts on the house. For 22$ per person, the famous Irish Pub is participating to Festival G. with a sweet deal on their weekend brunch. Act fast, you only have 4 days to experience it (Saturday March 9, Sunday March 10, Saturday March 16, and Sunday March 17) !
To check out the list of all 18 participants restaurants and their special menus, visit the official website of Festival G. It is the first edition of this Griffintown-centric gourmet festival, and we certainly hope it won’t be the last.
