Is there ANYTHING better than a good farmer's market in August/September? It's food heaven! I'm lucky enough to live close to
Jean Talon Market, and there's nothing better than a lazy Sunday spent amongst the fruit and vegetable stands.
And that doesn't even begin to touch the little specialty shops around the market! Spice shops, Polish doughnuts, wild game, the butchers selling $1 meat on a stick in Butcher's Row, the gelato shop, locally made milk and butter, just so amazing.
If anyone's heading up to YUL, I highly recommend checking it out.
