food, oh how i love the food

one of the best parts of going back home to montreal is enjoying its food. SO GOOD and SO CHEAP. and the better part is bringing it back for people and see their excitement and anticipation to dig in to those bagels, smoke meat, apple pies and cheesecakes. okay, so the apples pies and cheesecakes are from the big apple pies... but they en route to/from montreal. for the record, i came back with

6 lbs of SCHWARTZ's smoke meat (montreal's finest)
7 and 1/2 dozen of ST-VIATERUR's bagels (also montreal's finest)
2 apple pies from the BIG APPLE (best apple pie on the 401)
4 apple almond cheesecakes from the BIG APPLE (best of it's kind on the 401)
1/2 lb of cha siu
1/2 lb of siu yoke
1/2 a siu ap
box of rice and potatoes
box of chinese buns
strainer of plums
strainer of grapes

...this is like free advertisement for these places! (I SHOULD GET PAID FOR THIS :P)

the foods


the bagels


i should serioulsy start a business... just buy montreal foods, go to SLC and sell them... perhaps i can pay for tuition with the profits!! hmm.. OR... i wonder how much you can ebay a montreal bagel for??!! THINK of the possibilities!!

and just to let you know, the foods are NOT all for me, i'm not that crazy... not yet at least. coming back in tim's van, i had the most lugage and aside from my school bag, laptop and suit... the rest was foods.. there was like at least seven bags of food. it was so GREAT. food is great and you know why? it has that tendancy to bring a smile on someone's face... and that's always nice : ) anyone up for dinner!?
