"For their initial pandemic pivot, sommelier Vanya Filipovic and chef Marc-Olivier Frappier turned Mon Lapin, their popular Little Italy restaurant and wine bar in Montreal, into a fried chicken take-away called Casgrain BBQ. Its sourdough-battered fried chicken, oyster-mushroom “popcorn” and other elevated fast-food offerings became so popular that the queue outside got its own Instagram handle. Then, to make room for the return of Mon Lapin, Casgrain BBQ moved into its own space a few blocks away on Saint-Denis Street."
