Arcade Fire’s Win Butler and Régine Chassagne are opening a new Haitian restaurant, Agrikol, in Montreal this summer with the help of celebrated Toronto restaurateurs (and fellow husband-wife duo) Roland Jean and Jen Agg, The Globe and Mail reports.
Agrikol will feature Haitian cuisine, visual arts and, of course, music. Butler and Chassagne’s friendship with Jean and Agg got off to an inauspicious start. After Butler commandeered the stereo in Agg’s Toronto restaurant with a Haitian Creole festival music called rara, he accidentally blew up the PA system.
