Montreal is often regarded as one of the best food cities in the world, so it's no surprise that celebrities flock to some of the best Montreal restaurants during their time here. Whether it's an actor filming a movie in Montreal, a singer with a stop at Centre Bell or an athlete in the city for Montreal's F1, high-profile names are certainly no stranger to the Montreal food scene.

It also knows that when it turns 100, that party better be big. The restaurant’s centenary may be five years from now, but plans have already started taking shape, including red-carpet festivities, free food and a huge media circus (especially if stakeholders like Céline Dion show up).
