We live in a great neighborhood, NDG, really close to Monkland avenue. We walk down Monkland at least twice everyday and it is amazing that we haven't spent all of our money on food. Here are some pictures of our favorite places.
Au Pain Dore Bakery. This place has really good chocolatine and desserts. There is fresh baked bread as well. |
Yes there is a Ben and Jerry's but don't be fooled by the label. They do not have chocolate peanut butter swirl. |
It is so fun living so close to a butcher. They have a great cheese counter and other great food. It is a tad on the expensive side but I feel really fancy shopping there. |
Yum! Cupcakes, cookies, candies and cakes. |
Basically a pharmacy with a post office. |
This is a local bakery and they serve great stuff as well. |
Forest loves this pub. They have good fish and chips (although I am not a fan of the chips). There is often live music. |
Always good for a slice of pizza for lunch. We also get delivery from here, they have two for one. Forest enjoys the quebecois. |
Grocery Store |
I must say that everytime I walk by this store I always think of Robin Sparkles from HIMYM. This candy store is a breath of fresh life. |
Forest often works here and still enjoys this coffee a lot. |
Yes we will still go to Subway. It is still one of the cheapest places around which often comes in handy. |
My favorite restaruant on Monkland. It is a little pricey but totally worth it. |
