Who: John Edward Gumbley and his hospitality group, Jegantic, best known for Old Montreal club Bord’Elle. “Spice king” Athiraj Phrasavath (formerly of Mercuri, SLK RD), will head up the kitchen.

What: A Hawaiian-Thai fusion restaurant and cocktail spot — expect dishes like a massaman curry with taro root pancake, Kahuku-style garlic shrimp, and “drunken lobster” pad thai. Cocktails should be fittingly tropical, and the restaurant’s decor will draw on street art.

When: Fall, with an exact date TBD.

Where: 690 Notre-Dame W, just west of Old Montreal.
