"With day 1 complete, day 2 commenced with 30 degree weather and snow sprinkles! It was beautiful outside, albeit very windy and toe-freezing cold, but we got out there and explored. Started the day at Bagels etc. on Saint Laurent with the Byzantine & Pompadour eggs Benedict dishes. The Byzantine had 2 poached eggs, goat cheese (sliced from a log with a slightly, delightfully chewy rind on the edge), tomato & spinach over a lightly toasted sesame bagel. The Pompadour had 2 poached eggs, melted cheddar, mushies, red pepper & spinach over a lightly toasted sesame bagel. Both came with wonderfully made home fries. Mmm, we couldn't even finish our meals and quickly entered a food coma :)
Showered, dressed for the cold, and bellies full, we wandered to the Boulangerie on St. Denis for...um...more food! We bought un croissant, un petit cheddar et un canelle, mmm! The canelle is like a pudding-flan-mini cake of which the inside richly melts in your mouth while the outer carmelized skin sticks to your teeth so you can savor it long after the canelle has been consumed."
