Here we are already at our last quick delivery of March 2021. On the menu for this edition, we will discuss the environment, a novelty in Rimouski and the possibility of opening the terraces in Montreal from Easter weekend. .
Let's start by talking about Quesada Burritos & Tacos, the Mexican restaurant chain with more than 140 establishments across Canada, which has announced that it wants to get rid of aluminum packaging and instead offer its sandwiches in biodegradable paper. With this measure, management estimates it will successfully divert approximately 20,000 pounds of aluminum from landfills over the next five years. At the same time, remember that Quesada donates 1% of Beyond Meat sandwich sales to the David Suzuki Foundation. To celebrate the end of aluminum foil in its restaurants, the chain has decided to apply this discount to all vegetable burritos until April 30.
Let's continue with the arrival in Rimouski of a new restaurant specializing in macaroni and cheese! Yes, but also in sandwiches, salads and soups. So here is the new Macaronibar. More versions of the famous mac ‘n cheese are available and the chef is even open to preparing tailor-made versions for each customer who requests them! In terms of decor, the two owners wanted to recreate the New Orleans style and plan to present comedy or songwriter shows. The dining room can accommodate around 30 people and the terrace, currently under construction, can accommodate around 20 people.
Let us finally discuss the issue of Montreal restaurants. Remember that their dining rooms have been closed for a long time, the region still being in the red zone. However, the owners are trying to convince Public Health and the Quebec government to allow them to open their terraces, as is the case in Toronto. According to the owners, the City of Montreal would allow them to open the terraces as of April 15. But with the new data of COVID-19 cases in Quebec and the known presence of variants, and more particularly in Montreal, will they see their wish granted?
