Chez Ann Is Out in Little Italy, and Queer Venue Ellas Is In | Eater Montreal

"A Little Italy restaurant that became the center of controversy after a pop-up Chinese New Year dinner in February reportedly "went off the rails," with owner Kimberly Houston allegedly throwing food at a visiting chef and berating guests when one table brought their own alcohol to an event that was not BYOB; Houston insisted many people brought alcohol illegally, but multiple guests and staff contested that account. Representatives for both the pop-up and Chez Ann later told Eater the restaurant does not plan to permanently close." - Tim Forster
