"With a fresh coat of creamy butter yellow and pastel pink, plus plenty of papillons (butterflies) for decoration, this lovely Little Burgundy wine bar has undergone a glow-up that makes it an even better spot to soak in the springtime. A leafy backyard patio and a chalkboard menu flourishing with seasonal vegetables and seafood also make strong cases. Prepare to be plied with natural wines, and dishes that offer something lighter than the menus at sibling spots on Notre-Dame’s restaurant row. It was a seamless addition to the Joe Beef family when it opened more than a decade ago, and it remains one of the city’s most coveted places to eat and drink. Must-try dish: The cheddar-topped, brown butter-slathered ham — it’s one dish that never goes out of season." - Valerie Silva
