I've lived here all 45 years of my life, eaten at all the delicious creameries the city has to offer, but Cremerie Confiserie Le Gourmandin (2308 Rue Ontario Est Montréal QC H2K 1W1) is the best the city has to offer!

To push customers into a wall? Violent woman. She's from another country. I'm Canada if you commit a crime you can be deported if you weren't born here.

I also bought brie cheese there once and it was rotten. I brought itit back with the receipt and they reluctantly refunded it. The manager was very nasty about it.

Cool & Simple is a frozen food shop where you can find everything in the freezer. This place is nice and cool. Dessert, App, Main and a lot of ready to eat items. And yes they have ice cream and sorbet. The friendly staff let us sample every flavour they carries and ended up we picked up some to go to enjoy at "home". Pear Sorbet tastes so good! Just like eating real iced Barlette pear puree. Pistachio ice cream has an intense nutty taste and real chucks of pistachio!

What can I say? This is the perfect place to do groceries for an excellent price, fresh quality,…read moreand wide variety. This spot is surrounded by many other groceries stores, but when it comes to price and worthiness, you buy your stuff here. This place is only to buy food and that is it. Fruits and vegetables for the win. I do find some of the food here better and fresher than some of the stuff I used to buy at Jean-Talon. For those searching Mexican products you can find pickled nopales (cactus), canned refried beans, green and red salsas, Valentina, and mole Doña María. I do find the tortilla quality here much better than many other grocery stores in this side of Mont-Royal. They do not have a that INSANE wide-range of Mexican products, but it is on spot. Staff is super friendly, and their opening hours are fantastic. I also recommend this place to shop during the pandemic. There are never crowded, and cashiers are very efficient. I like this small spot because in two aisles you get your groceries. That's what you call administrative management. My favorite place to shop for fresh food.

They have 24 flavours and each flavour side is coded by colour (blue for ice cream, green for sorbet and brown for yogurt). There's also a million specials on the boards such as blizzards, milkshakes, banana splits, soft serve and drinks). One scoop is $4.25, two scoops is $6.25 (taxes included in the price). I was able to sample two flavours before choosing. Service is a bit brisk. - Kulfi ($4.25 single) - never tried this before; it's a mix of Indian spices (ginger, cumin and cardamom) and four types of nuts. You get full pieces of nuts too. I tasted pecan and hazelnut. Creamy, refreshing like a chai (but better). Only unfortunate thing is it melted quickly outside. Cash only.

Which I've mentioned multiple times to ALI, as I've tried for 40 years to get him to carry stevia, the only acceptable sugar substitute for diabetics (according to my doctor). So much fun realizing they just eliminated it from their shelves...altogether. But it was this bulk grain order that's turned me off this store, perhaps for good: I ordered 5 X 20KG bags of grain. Kamut, Spelt Rye, Buckwheat and Oats. The Kamut, Spelt, Rye and Oats arrived in a reasonable amount of time. And, as I am handicapped, Ali brought it right up to the third floor. Nice. I haven't seen any sign of the buckwheat, in the 5 months since. Despite Ali giving his word it was coming. But the oats were the kicker. "Not fit for human consumption" is the description I'd give them. Every mouthful a festival of oat husks, and I'm spitting that &^%%$ out for an hour after every breakfast. I told Ali about it, days after it was delivered, and again, he gave me his word it'd be replaced. 5 months later, I'm still waiting. When the weather's good enough for me to get to the store, with my two canes and without my ebike, limited to about 3 blocks range...I limp to the store and I'm told that "Ali doesn't want to deal with this." Well. I don't exactly want to deal with an enormous bag of pig-oats, which I'm now forced to eat every day. I NEED oats for my diet. And there's no way I can carry a 20KG bag downstairs to throw it out. So now I'm forced to eat BAD oats I don't like...and to wonder why I'm being treated so shoddily. So "bulk delivery"??? Meh. Use TAU
