Case: tried this place out last night for the first time. Went in knowing that vegan places in Montreal have a long way to go. I do, however, appreciate that they are beginning to sprout up more and more in this city.\n\nI ordered the tofu BBQ sandwich and was pretty disappointed. it was cold and I tasted the pickles in the sandwich more than the BBQ. \n\nhad the brownie for dessert and it was no match to the other vegan one I had a week ago at Aux Vivres.\n\nService was lackluster. servers seemed  un happy to be working. Cashier's uniform was SO DIRTY. either he hadn't washed his uniform in a couple of weeks or he had managed to spill on himself, everything he came into contact with that day.

Case: You might think that healthy fast food might be unappealing but do not let that hesitation keep you away from trying this place.  Knowing that it's healthy and tastes wonderful will now make me a regular customer.

Case: I have not stayed at the Morning Glory Inn as a guest, but recently spent a day there for a wedding & reception. \n\nI grew up in Pittsburgh and left years ago when it was in steep decline, so I think it's great when I come back and see some of those old neighborhoods being revitalized. Kudos to the developers of the Morning Glory for recognizing the potential of this charming old building. I have to be honest and say that while the Inn has a lot of character and personality, much of it feels a bit too... dingy for my tastes. I imagine the job of turning one of these old row houses into a B&B would require a Mike-Holmes-style gutting and restructuring, but in some places it feels like new wallpaper, paint or carpet was just laid over whatever was already there since time immemorial. The cobblestone courtyard is cute, but it's very uneven and the stones are in disrepair, which can be treacherous for elderly wedding guests in heels. I'm sure it's difficult to walk the fine line between retaining historical authenticity and providing fresh, modern facilities, so I'm inclined to be forgiving. I don't think I'd be comfortable staying at the Inn, though. Maybe it's just too many childhood memories of claustrophobia-inducing, mildewy, decrepit row houses. \n\nThe one thing which really stood out about the Morning Glory was the proprietor's attitude. He seemed cranky, rude and almost annoyed at having people in his inn. At first I thought it was my imagination but other guests were commenting on it as well. Whether he was hollering at the guests \""Listen up!\"" like a high-school gym coach, or shoving people back into the corners of the courtyard to make room, we kept asking ourselves, \""what is his problem?\"" We didn't experience anything remotely like the other reviewers here who had their reservations cancelled, but I can certainly see the likelihood of that kind of treatment based on our observations. The wedding was nice but the creepy atmosphere in the Inn made me want to get out as soon as possible. \n\nAnd this atmosphere suddenly seemed to make a little more sense when we explored the sitting room / library on the second floor, which was well-stocked with hardcore right-wing political diatribes from especially obnoxious pundits like Glenn Beck and Neal Boortz. Of course everyone is entitled to his or her ideology, but a B&B really seems like a strange place to bring in politics. Classic literature, travel books, gardening, maybe a history of the South Side, certainly; I presume one goes to a B&B for relaxation, calm, peaceful reflection. These are not emotions one would associate with Beck, Boortz and their ilk. To be fair, nobody cornered us in the hallway to lecture us on the evils of Obama's impending Nazi dictatorship; but the library just reinforced our impression that the owner of this place had something stuck in his craw. And I don't really have any desire to go back to learn more about whatever that may be.

Case: Come for dinner. Just do it. So, we were informed that the dinner chef at La Pi\u00f1ata is the same chef at Mi Patio during the day. With that said, he must be a one magical being, because his food is consistently delicious across the board no matter what restaurant you catch him at. I had the taco, enchilada, and green corn tamale plate. Everything on the plate was incredible - even the beans. I was too full to eat my rice, but the consensus at the table was that it was the only part of the meal that was mildly unsatisfactory, as it was a bit salty. On a side note - my husband had the Pi\u00f1ata Chimi and wasn't very happy either. The waiter had warned him that the regular green or red chili chimis were actually a better choice, but as usual, he didn't listen. \n\nI also did not partake in the margaritas of pi\u00f1ata fame, but my sister claims that she had imbibed many a night and that these margaritas, they are top notch. My kids were also raving all night about the french fries and tortilla soup, and my kids know french fries and tortilla soup - so I'd just take their word for it. The service was excellent and the staff was very accommodating with some of our special needs. Overall, a GREAT experience and we will definitely be back!

Case: Had this bookmarked for a long time. And since my daughters orthodontist is not far from here, we stopped by on our way home. \nIt is very simply decorated and clean inside. There was only one worker that I saw and it was early evening on a Monday so maybe they get busy later or on different days.\nThere were not many choices in the dessert case. (picture)\nThere is a nice covered patio for eating during warmer weather. \nWe purchased the family pack which is supposed to come with salad AND 2 sides. well half way home (30 minute drive) we discovered it was FORGOTTEN. DRAT!!\n\nAnyway once home we opened our containers- she showed me at the place and I was a bit disappointed that the whole chicken was already cut into 1/4s.  i guess I was expecting something like the whole chicken you can get at the grocery store for around $6 that is left whole. And the 2 sides were in 4 different little containers (picture)\n\nNOW- i am picky about my coleslaw so i asked to taste it first before ordering as a side. It was lightly coated with a mayo type stuff that had a tangy sweetness to it (reminded me of miracle whip) although it was good, it didn't knock my socks off. So i ask if the red rice is made in house, she said yes.  WELL..........................\nred rice is something close to uncle Ben's type rice with a funky flavor that I must say reminded me of cardboard.\nThe other side of mac and cheese  took one bite and spit it in the trash- wax like glue cheese coating that did not taste anything near cheese (this is the south- we know mac and cheese).\nNow I really wish I had gotten my salad because all I got to eat was the chicken.\nI am a white meat eater and the chicken was a little dry- not super dry but you could tell it was made early in the day and had sat for a while. The seasoning is nice, but amazingly oily skin (where all the seasoning is) . It would be great if they could inject it to prevent the drying out as well as getting the flavor into the meat itself. \nI may return to try another item on the menu- but as far as getting the chicken i think I will just stick with my local grocery store since I can call ahead and find out what time they will come off fresh and just pop down the road. \n\nThe variety on the menu is great- but hopefully better than the sides we received. OH I asked if the green beans were seasoned at all and she said no- so that makes me think they are canned- and who doesn't have a can of beans in your pantry collecting dust anyway. If i do return I will be sure to get a side like fries or a baked potato since that would be hard to screw up.\nCHEERS!

Considreing the above, classify the following: This wonderful place would have gotten 5 stars if it wasn't for their Valet Attendant guy named Chase. The worst customer service. I do not recommend Valeting your car there unless you want to be harassed and hustled for dollar bills by this man. He told us he saw our car there before (which wasn't true) and in la they would tip him...not a good way to earn a tip buddy...go back to la. Not to mention we tipped on the way in. Poor management and lack of brain cells if you ask me.
