Jack Landau for Daily tous les jours
From the folks who brought us Montreal's famous 21 Balançoires musical swings comes a whole new musical installation at Place des Arts that is sure to delight you.
Walk Walk Dance is a "brand new project imagined for the cities of the world hoping to quickly revive public spaces after the vacuum created by the pandemic," according to a press release. You can walk, jump, roll, or dance on carpet to trigger beautiful music.
"The pandemic and lockdown isolated people inside their homes, cities and public spaces were deserted, sad and lifeless. We wanted to create an opportunity to meet each other and reclaim our cities, no matter where we live, " said Mouna Andraos, co-founder of Daily tous les jours.
Walk Walk Dance premiered in Toronto in June 2021.
"The purpose of this project is to surprise people by creating spontaneous moments of joy, safely, " added Melissa Mongiat, co-founder of Daily tous les jours.
The installation will be in Quartier des Spectacles until September 6, 2021.

This New Downtown Montreal Restaurant Serves Food In Cute Little "Pig Bowls"
Delicious and seriously adorable.
At this stage in the game, I'm sure you guys are all well aware that my favourite hobby in life is discovering and trying out brand new spots in Montreal.

So when I came across Le MajesThe (439 Avenue du Président-Kennedy) in downtown Montreal, I was super, super excited.
This spot is mostly known for its incredibly delicious all-natural unicorn lemonades and super cool terrarium-esque desserts... but tbh, you need to get yourself there and try every. Single. Thing.
The food here is fresh and delicious. I tried their chicken kimchi bao bun, and let me tell you, it was a life-changing experience. The bao bun was soft and steamed to perfection; the chicken was juicy and moist; the kimchi worked perfectly with all the accoutrements in the bun.
And the cutest part?
Legit, they serve some of their food in the cutest little pig-shaped bowls around.
TBH, this spot takes presentation super seriously. Check out some of their other cool dishes:
Sounds like the coolest spot ever? You know it does! Check out Le MajesThe on Facebook for more information.

The "Harry Potter" Live Concert Experience Is Coming To Montreal
Visit Hogwarts without leaving the city
Little known fact about me: I'm actually obsessed with Harry Potter.
When I was a kid, I could probably recite the entire script of the first Harry Potter film.
I waited patiently (impatiently) for the last Harry Potter book to come out. I knew all there was to know about the series. I even bought a whole bunch of swag to totally trick out my room. I was obsessed AF.
Which was why, when I found out about this Harry Potter-themed event, I think I literally screamed in nostalgia/happiness for a solid five minutes.
On April 8 and 9, Montreal's Place Des Arts will be hosting a live orchestra Harry Potter concert at the Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier.
The concert will feature a live 84-piece symphony orchestra performance performing live, note for note, to Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
And yes, the movie actually will be projected on the big screen in English, with French subtitles.
Tickets start at $49.50, and the show starts at 8:00 PM.
So, fans of Harry Potter, rejoice. You're about to get one seriously cool, musical immersive experience.
