Fast delivery: Cage projects, something new at McDonald's and a positive 2019 MTLàTABLE

In this new edition of Fast Delivery, we will unveil the future projects of the owner of the Cage, will present a long-awaited novelty from McDo and will take stock of the 2019 edition of MTLàTABLE.
First, Jean Bédard, president and chief executive officer of Sportscene, the operator of the chain La Cage-Brasserie sportive, announces that he also wants to develop the brands L'Avenue, especially specialized in breakfasts, and Moishes, specialized in grills. At the moment, there are two L’Avenue and two Moishes. Recall that La Cage has undergone a facelift that began five years ago with the renovation of restaurants and the evolution of the menu.
Then McDonald’s restaurants across Canada finally announced that reusable cups will be accepted in their restaurants. You will therefore be able to have your coffee or tea served in your own cup by the end of February. The move follows numerous disparaging comments about the brand and its meager efforts to improve its environmental footprint.
Finally, the MTLàTABLE event, which took place last November with the participation of 150 Montreal restaurants, was crowned with success, while the economic spinoffs were estimated at $ 8 million, an increase of $ 1 million compared to to the previous edition. A total of 130,000 customers discovered the originality and diversity of local gastronomy through a special offer of table d'hôte at a fixed price.
