Le Pape-Georges

Description:

• A cozy wine bar in a 325-year-old stone-and-beamed room features chanson (a French-cabaret singing style), along with other music genres, usually Thursday through Sunday at 9pm. Light fare -- plates of mostly Québec cheeses, assorted cold meats, and smoked salmon -- is served, along with up to 15 choices of wine by the glass. Although it's in the middle of a tourist district, most patrons appear to be locals.
