Best restaurant in Montreal is Damas, though a bit outside of the downtown core. Elena or Barbara on Notre Dame street have good food and a cool vibe. Burgundy Lion for a pub. Gibbys for old school steakhouse in the Old Port. Cloakroom for a cocktail bar. Marcus (at the four seasons) for a bougie-type dinner.

On sights to see, could walk along the pier in the Old Port and along Saint Paul street / see the cathedral. If you walk north on Peel, you’ll come to a staircase that’ll take you to the Mount Royal lookout. If it’s your first time, could walk up St Laurent and go to Schwartz for smoked meat and be sure to check out St Viateur for a bagel. Can also scalp tickets to tomorrow’s Canadiens game just after puck drop for $40-50 ish if you’re into hockey

Some casual eateries would be appreciated too, and more sights, as it’s a multi-day work trip 🙏

La Belle Province or Lafleur’s for classic Saturday junk food takeout. I’m biased towards Mandy’s salads as my go to Uber eats downtown. Spicebros has good fast food Indian bowls/wraps. Roch le coq for fried chicken. Ma Poule Mouillé for portuguese chicken (a large there is enough for a family of 4 lol)

Bain & Company Is it truly easier to get in a smaller MBB office?

Have heard a lot for different opinions on these. The logic is that it’s easier because there is a lot of supply in cities like NY, Chicago and SF, but the counter argument is that the offices with less supply are also way smaller and have a lot less demand.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
