We sat on the lovely terrace and had the tender 70 day dry-aged beef with lobster tail for dinner (YUM!) The appetizer was a crab and fish cake, and an assortment of sweets for dessert to end the night. We then headed over to Arome Seafood and Grill, one of three restaurants located inside the Casino. I had the honour of popping the bubbly and we toasted to a fun girls night out! This 225 foot fountain is a true Casino Lac-Leamy landmark. I was impressed, to say the least, and most of all flattered to take part in the entire thing. This boat and tour is exclusively reserved for high rollers, as a way to thank their loyal clients. The night started off with an exclusive boat ride on Leamy lake. Can you image how much fun that would be?!

I suggested they organize a fairy ride to bring you there. So, grab a $10 uber across the river and keep the party going! No doubt you’ve heard the commercials. This year, Casino Lac-Leamy is a sponsor of the RBC Bluesfest and a big part of their message is that your night doesn’t have to end after the concerts are over.

From first class dining, to adrenaline pumping games and gorgeous views of the city, there is no shortage of amusement on the other side of the bridge. We chatted, wined and dined and had the opportunity to hear first hand about all the amazing experiences that the casino has to offer. I almost forgot how much fun it is to party with the Quebecois! They have an immense passion for life and all things food, culture, music and entertainment. I was recently invited to spend a fabulous VIP evening with the gracious folks of the Casino Lac Leamy‘s PR team. We tend to forget that there is a whole new place next door, waiting to be discovered! I vowed, not long ago, that I would try and get my feet wet, and learn a little bit more about the gems hiding away in Gatineau, which is why I am so happy to share this post with you. I’ve lived in Ottawa for just over 15 years, and by now I feel that I have experience most of what Ottawa has to offer, which is why I love discovering new places and things in the city.
