I've been eating at Bossa since 2018, and let me tell you, I've been here through it ALL! From the…read moreearly days with their simple, plain sandwich wrapping to watching them grow into what they've become today. I've seen every phase of this place, and I'm definitely not going anywhere anytime soon! I absolutely love Bossa. I've watched this little Verdun gem grow over the years, and honestly, I'm proud of how far they've come. My latest visit was specifically for their October special, the Gobble Gobble, a sandwich I've been dying to try before the month ended. If you know me, you know I LOVE a good Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, and this sandwich is basically the holidays between two slices of bread! We're talking thinly sliced turkey piled high, generous slices of creamy brie, a little arugula, stuffing that's absolutely fantastic, and a creamy cranberry mayo that brings everything together beautifully. And the best part? They give you gravy on the side! You can dip, dunk, or drizzle it all over your sandwich. Personally, I went straight for the dunk, and I have zero regrets! My boyfriend and I actually split this one because we both wanted to try it. Normally, we each order our own sandwiches, but this was one we couldn't pass up. Beyond the sandwiches, what I really appreciate is how much Bossa has evolved without losing what makes them special. From making their own bread to offering other goodies like fresh pasta and homemade sauces, they've created something that's so much more than just a sandwich shop. To think it all started with their original Verdun location, and now they're getting ready to expand to the West Island! I love seeing a local Montreal business grow and succeed, especially one I've been supporting for so many years. Five stars across the board, every single time. I'll say it proudly: Bossa makes some of the best sandwiches in Montreal. Actually, in my opinion, THE best. If you disagree, that's perfectly fine, but once you've tried one, you might just change your mind! Here's to many more years of incredible sandwiches. Keep doing what you're doing, Bossa!

On Saturday I finally dropped by to pick up a cheddar mushroom sandwich for lunch, and honestly it was one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time! The fresh bread hosted a sizable crunchy patty made out of shiitake mushrooms and a delicious edamame spread. It was tangy, hearty and one of those meals that any omnivore would crave. For dessert, I chose a caramel chocolate tart. It tasted heavenly. The sweet oozy caramel balanced the bitter chocolate well, with the thin homemade crust giving it the perfect crunch. They have pique-nique tables out front and only allow 3 customers inside at a time, so it felt very safe. Hand sanitizer is also provided upon entering. Apparently their waffles are epic so I have to remember to pop back in on a Sunday! Btw, Wellington Street is pedestrian-only for the summer so I'd make a day out of this outing and just wander on the promenade. Verdun has so many wonderful restaurants, antique stores and cute unique boutiques that are just waiting to be discovered.

Having Loco along with Bulk Barn in my hood, I've already saved in terms of waste (due to…read moreunnecessary packaging) and got my organic GMO-free foodstuffs at prices that won't break the bank account. Whole Paycheck oops...I mean Whole Foods south of the border could probably learn something new from Loco. They are all about zero-waste here and you can't show up here expecting everything to be prepackaged for you. You bring your own bags, containers or you end up buying some of their glass containers (NOT plastic) to carry your stuff. It has made me use up all my Mason jars at home. The milk bottles have $2 deposits on them, the egg cartons are paper based. The dried pantry foodstuffs, cleaning agents, kombucha are all sold in bulk and by weight. The veggies are locally, Quebec grown and in the fall, winter and root vegetables rule here. There's a shared workspace downstairs and cafe in the front when you enter. The food market is in the back. The people who work here are super-chill and everyone here is clearly on the left. The place works on a co-op model. Places like Loco should be the norm everywhere.

Definitely somewhere I will try to shop more. Not only are whole foods (particularly non gmo and/or…read moreorganic) better to put in your body, but help our beautiful planet but using far fewer resources to produce. That being said, Loco not only brings these foods to you, but refrains from packaged products. Considering that nearly all food packaging is plastic or plasticized cardboard, this has a HUGE impact on the garbage created in our industrialized food system. I hadn't been prepared to actually shop here as I happened to be in the area killing time, but I did pick myself up some kombucha. A $1 deposit for my glass bottle (than is credited upon return if cleaned), and my kombucha only cost me $1.85! Yes it was for a smaller amount, but based on their price per gram it was still cheaper per volume than regular store bought kombucha, and I didn't feel like lugging a huge one around the rest of my day. They even had 4 kinds ready on tap! The concept is super simple! Bring your reusable containers (glass, tupperware, used windex bottle) and weigh it. Use the stickers provided to mark starting weight on your containers then shop, weigh and pay! I was impressed at their collection of goodies, ranging from miso paste t laundry detergent. Their fresh produce was limited however they've only been open for two weeks at this point. They even have a little lunch counter! The front half of the shop is host to a cafe and coworking space.
