Gibby’s
Riding in a horse-drawn carriage through old Montreal in the month of December is very cold. Despite the heavy blankets and the rather temperate weather during our excursion, the wind coming in from the St. Lawrence can chill to the bone, making it rather difficult to take tourist photos. I fumbled off with my gloves and tried to conjure enough warmth into my bare shutter finger to snap a few pictures for my mother, but soon gave up. Luckily for me I live here and already have these photographs anyway. I could easily make duplicates of anything I’d missed.
As our driver mentions local points of interest, a few restaurants are mentioned as well. I don’t know if the drivers get kickbacks from the restaurants themselves, but there are three that are invariably mentioned during every carriage tour. The only one of those which has been recommended to me by locals is Gibby’s.
