Cuisine AuntDai

Cuisine AuntDai is a Chinese restaurant in Montreal, Quebec famous for its owner's menu item descriptions, which are at turns disarmingly self-effacing, autobiographical, and advisory.The restaurant opened in February 2014. It serves Northeastern Chinese regional cuisine and is owned by Feigang Fei, who immigrated to Montreal from China in 2006. It is known for its mala dishes. Fei previously worked in information technology, where he says he was told to be more diplomatic in criticizing co-workers' work.In February 2019 Cuisine AuntDai was recommended by Global News for Valentine's Day dining. In January 2021, the restaurant became well known because of its menu item descriptions. According to the New York Times, Fei's menu "in addition to its disarming frankness" is also autobiographical. He mentions that one dish was one of his favorites while in college, but that he's "not such a huge fan of the restaurant’s version, to be honest" and prefers the original at Tianjin University. Some menu item descriptions offer advice; the one for the hot-and-sour soup says, "Spicy and tasty, no meat, drink slowly to avoid hiccups." Fei started adding such advice because of frustration with customers who returned dishes that weren't what they expected. Fei occasionally describes a dish in complimentary terms, such as the braised pork belly with sweet potato, the description of which is "You almost want to sniff the tasty hot air above this beautiful dish."The restaurant had been "bleeding cash" during the coronavirus pandemic before a customer tweeted the menu in January 2021 along with a comment about the restaurant's "extremely honest" owner. The tweet went viral, and shortly thereafter the restaurant could "barely keep up with demand for [its] takeout meals." Fei was interviewed by media in Australia, Britain, Germany, Israel and the United States, as well as Canadian media.

Shaughnessy Village
Shaughnessy Village

Shaughnessy Village (sometimes referred to as the Concordia Ghetto) is a neighbourhood of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, located on the western side of the Ville-Marie borough. It is bounded by Guy Street to the east, Atwater Street to the west, Sherbrooke Street to the north, and René Lévesque Boulevard and the Ville-Marie Expressway to the south. This neighbourhood is the most densely populated area of Quebec, due to the large number of high-rise apartment towers built in the 1960s and 1970s. The area is characterized by high-density residential housing and small-businesses, typically owned and operated by immigrants living in the neighbourhood, concentrated at its core, with stately Victorian grey-stone row houses and beaux-arts styled apartment blocks at the edges of the neighbourhood. It is a primarily institutional neighbourhood, with a university, junior college, seminary, hospital and architecture museum among many private schools, colleges and technical schools. In 1981, local citizens named the neighbourhood after Shaughnessy House, built in 1874 for Thomas Shaughnessy, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The house was declared a National Historic Site of Canada in 1974, and is now part of the Canadian Centre for Architecture.Other notable landmarks in the area include the Montreal Forum, the former site of the Montreal Children's Hospital on Atwater Avenue, and Le Faubourg Sainte-Catherine shopping mall and Cabot Square.
