I had to do a whole separate post about one of my favourite evenings in London - checking out the 40 FT Brewery in Dalston.

Making friends at the Trans Musicales Festival with other music journalists paid off and one offered to bring me to a brewery that operated out of shipping containers - this I had to see.

The entire area surrounding the brewery was phenomenal! On the weekends they had food vendors set up, a dj, and even a fashion show was going on when we wandered up.

The amazing staff from the brewery gave me a behind the scenes tour, as well as some delicious beer (one can made it all the way back to Vancouver for my friends to sample!). It was a very unique idea and everyone was incredibly friendly. Honestly if I lived in London, I’d be there every weekend, between the beer and the food and the people!

Highly recommended if you’re visiting!

First post of my #CmacSeesLondonCmacSeesFrance tour is from Rennes. Aside from the Trans Musicales festival, I got to do a little bit of wandering around this beautiful city, and the festival was gracious enough to put together a walking tour in English.

Things I learned:
- A LOT of Rennes burned down in a fire, and it was due, ironically, to a drunken carpenter
- Their market on the Saturday is amazing. You can buy practically anything, including oysters that they’ll shuck for you on the spot.
- You can eat and drink said oysters in public and it’s the greatest.
- There is a place called “Poutine Bros” that is decked out in Canadian stuff, and has menu items named after Rob Ford and Carey Price to name a few.
