Ottawa restaurants suck, according to some bitch from the Gazette

Just read a "city up in arms" piece about some bitch from Montreal who thought it right to trash Ottawa's restaurants after a less than successful Canada day experience.

A) fuck off bitch.

No, I am serious

B) it was Canada day.


That means it's time to bend over because where restaurants are concerned, everybody is a tourist and we all get raped by a plate of shit food. Imagine expecting tight service and good prices on the busiest day of the year in a downtown eatery. So sorry your majesty.

Why paint the whole town with the same brush because this turd had trouble in one place? Now you can see why she is a food critic and not the political editor. "Breaking news, the Big Slam is back at Deny's, I need you on this now!"

Admittedly, Ottawa isn't the epicentre of culture, but I don't want to hear any shit from a bitch who writes for the Gazette (Lesley Chesterman). You wouldn't wrap fish with that rag, let alone take advice from it.

As for the restaurants, she has a point. A city of almost 3 million probably does have more restaurants than a city of barely 1 million, but I'll tell you this about that. I have eaten plenty of shit in tight assed pretentious "boits" in Montreal, and I am glad this city has less $80 a plate fancy toilets than what should be the greatest city in Canada (except that it continually teeters on the edge of bankruptcy because it is full of stupid fucks).

I love Montreal, but it is more vacation than actual city. Nothing seems real and when you leave you feel like you are actually living a real life again. Same for their restaurants. Put the sauce here Pierre and can you get me another beer, no sorry, I didn't bring my own wine.

basically, a city that is famous for losing everything (more later) and "shaved, salted, loose meat sandwiches" has no business throwing stones. Beaver tails or smoked meat, pick your loser.

Yes, Montreal has more overpriced white table clothed establishments with assholes getting you a table. Cool and the gang. BUT that is where the ride ends because Montreal also has a few issues.

-They are still paying for the 1976 Olympics.
-They still brag about Expo 67.
-They LOST THE FUCKING EXPOS.
-Their city streets are at least the worst in the developed world.
-One night EVERY SINGLE MAJOR CANADIAN BANK packed up its headquarters and left town.
-They elect the PQ and the Bloc on a regular basis (no grasp of reality, I wonder if there is a connection with the banks)
-The city literally stopped developing in 1979, not exactly the most attractive period in modern architecture. -Those classy restaurants are generally directly across from, or neighbours with, titty bars. (not really a problem, but some might take exception)
-They named a street after Rene Levesque and their airport after Pierre Trudeau. If you can find two people who have done more damage to the image and economy of Quebec I'd like to hear it.
-The ciy's employees are some of the most corrupt in the country. Already this millennium they have had a parking ticket scandal, a snow plough scandal (didn't know they had any) and a street repair scandal.

So like I said enjoy your restaurants, but when you get home and have to walk up three flights of fire escape to get to your door because building designers in your city seem incapable of creating an "entry" think of what those precious restaurants have cost you.

Couldn't get a decent meal in Ottawa bitch, well I don't see a decent life in Montreal
