We spent the last five days in Montreal doing research for my book, seeing the St. Kateri Shrine, attending masses, seeing St. Brother Andre Bessette’s tomb and relics at the St. Joseph’s Oratory, and we also ate some really great food!

Panzerotti with fries. These fries are what McDonald’s fries should taste like. They describe this as a folded pizza – I’d call it more of a calzone without the ricotta cheese. At Toujours Mike’s in Delson. (c)2025
