General (Tao) musings: Big Weekend, Bigger Menu

We made it foodies! Its the weekend! And what a weekend it's shaping up to be ladies and gents! We got Sports, snacks, wacky food fests, birthday shindigs, lions and tigers and bears and partridges in pear trees! All playing out on YOUR new favorite blog. So while I partake in some Sichuan fare, here's rundown:

● As I've excitedly broadcast ed earlier this week, today is the kickoff to MTL poutine week! The fine folks who brought you MTL Burger week are back at it, along with partners such as Globe, Bevo and Mechant Boeuf, dedicating the next seven days to the Quebec staple. Specialty poutines will be brilliantly crafted for your tasting pleasure and proceeds of the event go to the Montreal Canadiens children's foundation. Good food, good cause. Now check the website and stuff your face! Oh! and look out for my take on the festivities...
● Tonight I'll be headed to my new fave spot for drinks and beats, En Cachette located in Quartier Latin. As it happens it will be the subject of the 1st review. Considering that it's my new "fave spot" you kinda know how its going down. But check out the review anyway. The devil is in the details!
●And lastly, we can't escape big sports weekend with the Habs playing Back to Back Matinees, Rudy Gay's debut with the Raptors and of course all of it culminating with the Godfather of sporting events : THE SUPER BOWL. Now we won't kid ourselves into believing that big sports weekends aren't an excuse to eat like adolescents. So in keeping with this long standing tradition, the recipe box has some suggestions for snacks and gameday grub for puck drop, kick off, get down or whatever else you got going on Sunday.

On that note kids, enjoy the weekend and make it count. Cuz in less than 48hrs, it's  Monday *wipes a tear*.
