		<title>Space Age Food Pills</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I remember watching The Jetsons as a child and the idea of meal replacement pills was both intriguing and lost on me. I understood convenience (I liked not having to make anything for myself &#8212; MOMMM&#8230;) but why did the people of the future abandon the pleasure of eating altogether? As I got older, discovered [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Adulteration of Yogurt</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the 19th century a renowned German chemist named Friedrich Accum published a book in Great Britain that called to the attention of the masses the severe manipulation of the common English food supply. The Treatise on Adulteration of Food (which you can read for free, if you&#8217;re so inclined) was an instant best seller [...]]]></description>

		<title>Boustan’s</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If an eatery is open late in an area known to be frequented by college students with no reservations on alcoholic drink consumption, one expects it to serve a certain cuisine suitable to this clientele.  The standard wee hour fare usually takes the guise of grease: poutine, burgers, pizza and the like. Boustan&#8217;s offers something [...]]]></description>

		<title>Authenticity: Who Needs It?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our neighbors just got back from Toronto and brought with them a half-dozen Toronto&#8217;s version of authentic Montreal-style bagels from the St. Urbain bakery, as I requested, which was very nice of them. Unfortunately, it is not very nice of St. Urbain bakery to call their bagels authentic Montreal-style bagels, and I&#8217;m definitely not nitpicking [...]]]></description>

		<title>Palate Cleansers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When we eat or drink, often there is a lingering aftertaste from whatever it is that we consumed. Sometimes this is intentional and pleasant, such as the finish of a nice wine, but often it is not. In a multi-course meal, an aftertaste of the previous course often does not pair well with the food [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dunn&#039;s Famous</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I first moved here and got the low down on Montreal smoked meat, I was told that there were two types: the Schwartz&#8217;s version and the Dunn&#8217;s version. Without ever having tasted either, no explanation would be adequate, I would just have to find out for myself. Well, after trying both, I&#8217;ve since became [...]]]></description>

		<title>La Montee de Lait</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure why La Montee de Lait keeps relocating, I don&#8217;t ask questions, I&#8217;m just there for the food, but it&#8217;s safe to say the food is not the reason for the relocations. Good food like theirs is certainly a welcome addition to any neighborhood. You&#8217;ll just have to keep an eye out for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jean&#039;s Trinidad Foods</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the center of NDG&#8217;s Caribbean restaurants saturated with Jamaican-style this and Jamaican-style that is Jean&#8217;s, a tiny restaurant showcasing the traditional home cooking of Trinidad. As I set foot inside the propped open door I assume this is a take out eatery, only offering the courtesy of a table for those with nowhere else [...]]]></description>

		<title>Copoli</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Before I even moved to NDG people would say, &#8220;Oh! You&#8217;re moving to NDG? Have you tried X yet?&#8221; and my answer was always invariably no, because I didn&#8217;t live in NDG yet and hadn&#8217;t really spent any time out here until I did. One of those places was Copoli, and even though it is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hwang Kum</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After spending nearly six months in NDG, I can imagine there are a few people disappointed that I haven&#8217;t really written in any restaurant reviews since moving here. We have been eating out significantly less often and when we do go out, we tend to go to places we&#8217;ve been to before to avoid any [...]]]></description>
