If you ever find yourself in the Montreal neighbourhood of Mile End do yourself a favour and make your way to Boulangerie Guillaume for a truly spectacular display of bread and baked goods. It’s our little Charlie and the Chocolate Factory of French bread and pastries.

Leo and I try to go there each time we visit Montreal, and we’re slowly eating our way through their shelves. So far we’ve had their little pain filled with fig and cheese, a hunk of rustic loaf filled with more figs and peppered with hazelnut, mini pain au chocolat that are too cute for words, a traditional baguette, good old butter croissants, and the poppy seed loaf. To the staff of life!
