A day planned by Aaron. First stop, Patisserie Kouign Amann for a chocolatine and 2 kouign amann (layers of flaky dough with caramelized sugar in between the layers) - outrageous. Next, we went to the Jean-Talon Market where we had lots of samples. Lunch was a Viet fresh roll and a lobster roll Gaspesie style (no mayo but seasoned butter instead) together with the sampling. We bought more maple syrup and Rosemary and Aaron got more teas to take home. Next, we drove to the Old Montreal area where we walked around until it was time for dinner. Dinner at Les Pyrenees, where we had a fantastic meal 2 years ago. Well, we had another fantastic meal. Rosemary and Aaron had the duck breast in berry sauce. I had the melt in your mouth, 12 hour braised lamb topped with spinach and almonds. Next, we attended “Cavalia”, a show under the big top tent produced by Odysseo. It featured horses and acrobats and was very enjoyable. A well planned day by Aaron.
Off to a challenging start. I hope better days are in your future!
