Boulevard Saint-Laurent

With the strong wind making it feel like -20 today (Seemed colder on some streets), I was in no mood for being out photographing today. I did however grab a gew shots along boulevard Saint-Laurent on my way back home from brunching on avenue Duluth.

No matter what the weather, you can always bet on there being a queue outside the famed Schwartz’s Deli.

A few doors up is the Portuguese Rôtisserie Coco Rico. If I hadn’t just finished brunch, the smell of chicken coming from the vent would have enticed me inside.

I took a couple of general street shots just south of avenue des Pins, looking South and the North…

Before my hands froze (I haven’t got into the habitat of wearing gloves yet) I took a couple more pics at the corner of rue Prince Arthur.

Another tempting place to stop and warm up would have been Juliette & Chocolat…but we resisted the temptation.

Hoping it will be a bit warmer tomorrow.

Thanks for topping by. Until next time.
