I love Plaza McGill. It's a (clean) dive, the waitresses have been working there for 25 years and they have that classic decor behind the cash register, with pictures of dearly departed, press cuttings about Greece and a few Polaroïds of Matthew Perry uneasily shaking the hand of the owner after a meal.

Then a bunch of us packed into Laurent's car and drove to Boutique Point G for a macaron event! I ate at least one of each flavor, plus a yummy strawberry drink. There was a guy in a Darth Vader suit making frozen macarons, and I got to meet some of my foodie Tweeter friends (yay!). Let's just say it was a succesfull event.
Un p'tit drink!
