Hi. I’m JP.
I’m a writer and journalist whose work has appeared in Time Magazine, the Montreal Gazette and National Post as staff and a contributor, Time Out, NUVO Magazine, The Main, MTL Blog, and more.
Having called Montreal home since 2006, my focus is on spreading the good word about amazing things to eat, drink and do locally, nationally, and around the world.
One half raconteur and the other flâneur with experience working on the frontlines of Montreal’s restaurants and bars, I spend my time thinking about, reading about and writing about restaurants and bars.
Fun fact: I once co-owned and operated one of the city’s oldest bookstores for several years.

Sasha Manoli, Marketing and Events Manager at Time Out Montreal
I oversee J.P.’s work as both a guest editor and contributor for Eater Montreal. J.P. was quick to turn around breaking news, and excellent at meeting deadlines. He always volunteered to take on extra assignments as needed, and brought expertise and wit to his Montreal restaurant coverage.
