It's a great less known ( even for McGill' students) museum. It's not clearly marked outside, so just find the address, go inside, take an elevator to the second floor, turn right and there it would be.
I would definitely recommend to visit if you're into medical history and medicine in general. It's also would be perfect for older teenagers, who can stomach the view. Keep in mind, that most specimens are grayish mass in the glass containers, and it's not easy to say what is what, unless you read the labels.
It's small, so your visit can be under 1 hour. However if you start scanning the barcodes and paying attention to interactive displays, you can easily spend good couple of hours here.
It was interesting to see in person ( if one can say this) many anatomical abnormalities I only read about in books.

Obviously this place needs no reviews, it's buzzing with shoppers, but nevertheless I would give it a solid 5 star rating.
A lot of Italian specialities, imported and domestic. Great variety of olives. I found one of my favorite pasta - Fregola Sarda here. ❤❤❤ It's not readily available in every store.
Despite rather small size and being full with customers everyone will get personal attention. I loved the fact that instead of plastic bags for the cuts they use old school waxed paper. Mother Earth is grateful.
My whole interaction with Michael and observation of the well oiled mechanism of the way the shop works left me with the smile on my face for the rest of the day. Thanks .

Okay place to grab a lunch near the Central Park. Strawberry milk shake had that unnatural pink hue to it, so you can be sure no strawberries were hurt in process of making it.

O my, where to start?
Since I started to bake my own bread 2 year ago I stopped buying bread from the stores completely. Only when travel, but it wasn't as good as mine, usually a big disappointment.
Guillaume is a gem. I loved every bread we bought from them. The croissants are perfect, as good or even better than Brioche a Tet next block, but price is definitely better.
I even brought some of the bread and croissants home to NY.
My new " must stop at " place in Montreal.
It's a must visit for any bread enthusiast.

Well maintained skating ring. Less hectic than one downtown. Skates, skiis, snowshoes are available for rent. The price is good. They also have sledding, you can bring your own sleds and have fun.
There are lockers inside the building, the restrooms are clean and warm. Nice cafe on the second floor. Plenty of parking available.
