the gnocchi place is called drogheria fine and it sells one thing - gnocchi in calabrian tomato sauce - it costs $5 and is filling enough to have for lunch. it is $1 extra if you want extra pecorino romano on it

that's one hell of a drive but if you generally like montreal and spending time there then why not

the train is an option but spoiler: you can't really see the lake, it's mostly trees the whole way

isn’t the gnocchi place on beaubien better? or is that the same business that moved?
― flopson, Thursday, 3 October 2019 20:41 (four years ago) link
imo it's not a real montreal recommendation if someone doesn't immediately tell you about the better place that's a few blocks away
I've sometimes, after having a meal I really liked, mumbled "oh I had a sandwich nbd" if someone has asked me where I ate lunch, so as to not get sidetracked into where I should have eaten

xp. iirc this place has been there for years (like i think it was there last time i visited like 5 years or so ago)

I'd suggest a FAP at some point but epidemiological conditions aren't exactly ideal at the moment. Something to keep in mind for the future, however.

Pas cool, Valérie.
- The police operating budget in 2021 will be $679 million, an increase of just under $15 million from last year.
- The budget for housing, including funding for the city's goal to create 12,000 affordable and social housing units by 2021, will be $140.5 million, down nearly $13 million from last year.

A group of suspects would hold dozens of people hostage, Friday afternoon, in Montreal, in a building that houses the premises of the Ubisoft company, on Saint-Laurent Boulevard.

One of my friends works like a block from there, in a building where Ubisoft also has offices. Thankfully the hostage situation seems to be limited to a single building but reports of a ‘group’ of suspects are hardly comforting.

For all I know it could all be a hoax, nothing had been 100% confirmed so far.
― pomenitul, Friday, 13 November 2020 20:04 (three years ago) link
Well aside from the fact that it’s being treated as a potentially dangerous situation.
fuck the postmillennial that's alt right bullshit
but the images of people on the roof don't particularly evoke hostages so far; i think it's premature to assume they are.
i have a friend inside who says there's lots of police and he's safe
i'm two blocks away, my son's daycare is less than a block away. :( i know s1ocki is nearby too
let's wait and see :(
― sean gramophone, Friday, 13 November 2020 20:04 (three years ago) link
s1ocki has tweeted that they're staying put inside their office which sounds like they're safe
