How about a coffee?



You know I am not a Starbucks person. I only started going for the free Wifi, and I wasn’t buying anything most of the time, I was just going with my laptop and sitting on a table for more than a couple of hours. Eventually, I started to drink some coffee as well on occasion. When I first came to Montreal, I looked for Starbucks, this time not for the free Wifi, but for the same coffee, the same couches, tables, lamps and floor tiles.

It was only with time that I started looking for my kind of cafés, the “Markizes”, the “Kafe Kafkas” of Montreal. Now Pikolo is one of them.

  1. Markiz is breath-taking. Why don't we don't have cafes like that in mtl! I'm thinking we quit school and open up our own palatial coffee hangout, you in?

    (Are most of the cafes in Istanbul that wonderful?)

    1. Not all cafes are like Markiz. But it would be just wonderful to build one in Montreal, I am in.
