Soulmates: Chapter II

Perhaps the only office skyline view better than Cat Grant’s own, Kara thought. The new chief found herself running late, some meeting or another had carried over, which left Kara confused because it was seven in the morning and nobody in a civilised society should be working or taking meetings before eight.

Kara felt those kinds of early starts were a way of life better left back home.

Still, it didn’t stop her getting out of bed soon after reading the email. She wasn’t sure why she put an extra hour into her routine, but she curled her blonde hair a certain way, put a little extra blush and highlight on her cheeks, made herself fresh and found herself appreciating the city with a bounce in her step, despite the lack of sleep, because things seemed different this early in the morning.

There was a delight to be found in the quietness of the world. The air was freezing cold, refreshing, had the blood pumping quick and the coffee in her hand feeling like good value for money this morning. The train carriage had been empty, that kind of empty that people spoke about sometimes, but Kara had never seen before today, where the chugging express train sped along the bridge in quiet jolts, the water from the river beneath still ripples of inky black bouncing bright city light, with only the darkest shade of purple on the horizon indicating the new day.

Kara ate a croissant and found herself with space in her thoughts beyond maintaining the appearance of her life. She tempted her hand into her purse when she switched trains, half-considering a photograph to capture the rarity of an empty, desolate city subway platform. She didn’t. Strangely, she left it alone and just enjoyed the moment, the quiet, as though she were the only person awake and there was something pleasant in the fact.

“It’s something, isn’t it?”

Kara heard the distinct thud of a cleaning cart hitting the door.

“It’s sad,” Kara murmured, still in her own thoughts. “Three months here and I haven’t seen a single, actual sunrise. I figured it was because the city was dense, that maybe the smog sat a little heavier in the morning but, turns out, if you’re one of the chosen few up in the clouds on the lower side? Sunrises are just another Wednesday.”

“You’re definitely new in the city. If you go to Southview Hill Park, weekday mornings, not only will you get a quaint walk through the third most-charming public garden in the city, but you will also find your perfect viewing spot to see the sun come up across the river.”

Kara froze.

“You are not the cleaning lady.” She tempered an embarrassed, mortified laugh as she turned around. “I’m. I’m so sorry if that, you know, sounded kind of arrogant?”

“No, to both. I’m not the cleaning lady and you didn’t sound arrogant.” The woman shook her head and stifled a smirk. “I thought you might like some breakfast, something to drink at the very least. My assistant doesn’t get here until nine so I took a walk to see what I could find. Do you like cereal?” She lifted her emerald eyes curiously. “I must warn you that milk could not be procured so the cereal will be served tartare, right from the box.” She lifted the cornflakes and shook a few into her palm.

For a woman who had been awake for perhaps just as long as Kara, if not longer, Lena Luthor looked immaculate in the most understated way as if these insane early starts were just part and parcel of things.

Miss Luthor didn’t look like the most important woman in the city and yet, there she was, most certainly not the cleaning lady. It was that dressed up, dressed down thing all tech entrepreneurs pulled off effortlessly. The kind you could be sat next to, at the bagel place, and assume they were just another intern trying to get a grasp on life, young, figuring it all out, not a billionaire mogul wearing a grey cashmere sweater, black slacks, no Rolex, just a pair of regular beaten-up sneakers.

“I’m usually used to reporters asking most of the questions,” Miss Luthor spoke again with a strange smile. “Or, you know, talking.” Her lips wobbled with amusement.

“I’m. I’m so sorry, I was still mentally replaying the last five minutes. You know, that unfortunate part where I assumed you were the cleaning lady, kind of trying to figure out how I would attempt to explain it to Cat right before she fires me.” Kara fiddled with her glasses and felt better for earning a real laugh this time.

“Your secret is safe with me. I wouldn’t be so sure about Cat either, I had the distinct pleasure of interning for her when I finished college—”

“You?” Kara balked.

“Oh yes.” Miss Luthor nodded at the surprise, craning down to pour hot coffee into two waiting mugs. “I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do, just that I didn’t want that thing to be…too Luthor-ish. Anyway, Cat can be brash but she has a keen eye for fostering talent. If she didn’t see something in you then she wouldn’t have sent you.” She offered hot coffee.

“They gave me pre-written questions.” Kara quirked the corner of her mouth and lifted the printed sheets. “Thanks for the coffee, Miss Luthor.”

“Thanks for making time to accommodate me so early this morning. Please, just call me Lena.” She waved it off and unlaced her sneakers, placing them on the shoe rack in exchange for the Louboutins, footing around her desk to the big seat. “What was your name again?”

“Kara.” Lena’s eyes went a little wide at that. “Kara Danvers, I’m sorry I didn’t introduce myself—”

“No, no.” Lena blinked and smiled. “I know you. I think. Well, it would perhaps be more apropos to say that I know of you, that’s assuming you’re Kara Danvers, James Olsen’s friend from back home?” She clarified.

“I am that Kara Danvers,” Kara laughed and felt more at ease. “Is it weird to say I’m a little surprised James Olsen has billionaire chief exec friends he failed to mention? He texts me screenshots at two in the morning if any of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills retweet him.” Kara knew she was saying too much and yet it felt so easy.

“And would you not if Lisa Vanderpump acknowledged your existence?” Lena furrowed her brow as she sipped her coffee. “James is—or was—a family friend. It’s a little more complicated now, but our Words With Friends game is still going strong all these years later, so I assume we’re on warm terms…”

“That depends whether he’s beating you.” Kara wiggled her eyebrows and sat down.

“I let him win, once in a while, just to keep it fun.” Lena tilted her expression and sipped her coffee. “It’s not healthy to operate in absolutes, you have to lose some in order to enjoy winning some.”

“That somehow sounds humble and a little arrogant all at once,” Kara grinned and glanced down to the questions that she hadn’t thought to pre-check, which swiftly took the smile off her face. “Miss Luthor—”

“Lena.”

“Lena,” Kara corrected herself. “Can I just pre-start by saying that I am so sorry. Really, I am so sorry, and I did not write these questions. Could we start there—that I’m sorry?”

“Goodness.” Lena’s eyes went wide, the whites growing bright, then she twisted her ponytail into a loose bun. “That means they’re tough ones. Maybe you’re right, maybe Cat does hate you.” She joked. “We better get started…”

Kara felt her forehead break with dampness.

“Shortly after your wife’s passing you withdrew from public life completely. The last impression you left in the public’s perception was described, by your worst critics, as the undoing of one of the most brilliant minds of a generation into the impulsive, erraticism and paranoia that, many now feel, aptly describes your brother’s downfall into madness.”

The air had shifted before the first sentence finished. Kara felt it, as though a stiffness had come over the room, and she had remembered quite suddenly why it was she hated silence, and that was perhaps the only reason she kept reading aloud.

The pause hung for just a moment too long. “Was there a question on the end of that summary address?” Lena cleared her throat.

Kara clenched her eyes and didn’t want to say it.

“What separates you from Lex Luthor? Why should the public, and the many forgotten who invested their life savings in LexCorp’s over-valued IPO before last year’s seventy-percent tank in stock value, trust you to steer the ship and not—” Kara stopped and clenched her teeth with embarrassment. “Not jump off into the deep end again?”

The silence was deafening.

Kara didn’t dare look her in the eyes.

“And that’s the interview over and finished with.” Lena stood from her chair and kept her expression tight, manacled, and dour. “Please let Catherine know I’ll have relations send her a statement before noon today.”

“Lena I’m so sorry—”

“Miss Luthor.” She forced the coolest of smiles. “I’m afraid I…have to be somewhere. If you’ll excuse me, Miss Danvers.”

“Of course.” Kara nodded and gathered her things, mortified and ashamed. “Erm, Miss Luthor, if I may before I leave?”

“Yeah?”

“My condolences. I…” Kara stopped, she felt flustered, but most of all she felt as though she would regret it later if she didn’t say it. “I didn’t know—about your wife—I’m sorry for your loss. But, from someone who truly had no idea who you were prior to two o’clock this morning, I don’t think any amount of time you took to grieve was anything less than the exact reason you might be the most qualified person for this role, in this exact moment, given everything that happened with Lex, because the public down there needs to feel like the people up here, in the clouds and ivory towers, are human too.”

Kara didn’t hang around and wait for a response, she felt there had been enough imposition and rudeness for one day. She left quickly and quietly, absolutely seething that she had been placed in the position, that Lena had been placed in the position, and most of all that she was, most definitely, about to be fired for not getting a scoop.

Know the 9 Effective Aftercare Tips for Orthodontic Treatment

After using an orthodontic appliance like braces or aligners, knowing the proper aftercare procedures is crucial. Although modern orthodontic appliances are built to withstand a lot of wear and tear, improper maintenance can shorten their useful life.

We understand the need of proper aftercare methods and have the Best Orthodontist in Nagpur on staff at Smilestone. In this article, we will go through nine aftercare strategies that will help you get the most out of your orthodontic treatment. Here are a few suggestions for maintaining your straightened teeth.

To disinfect dental tools, use water floss.

Cleaning dental appliances on a regular basis is just as vital as taking care of your teeth. Using a water flosser or dental irrigator is the most effective method for doing so. Water floss, in contrast to normal floss, will not damage your brace or aligner and will effectively remove plaque and food particles from your teeth without touching them. In addition to brushing and flossing twice daily, maintaining your dental equipment on a regular cleaning schedule can reduce the likelihood of cavities and infections.

When undergoing dental or orthodontic treatment, it is important to practise good oral hygiene.

Getting braces could lead you to believe that all of your dental health needs will be met. Certainly, they do. But you need to take care of your teeth and gums.

If you want to maintain a healthy mouth, you need to maintain a regular routine of brushing, flossing, and brushing your tongue. Smilestone – Best Dental Clinic in Nagpur will help you out for your Teeth Issues

You can avoid discoloration of the tooth enamel beneath the braces by maintaining a regular routine of cleaning and brushing. In this way, tartar and plaque in the mouth are avoided. It will also help you avoid the spread of bacteria. Keeping your mouth clean will help the orthodontic treatment work better.

Keep a close eye on what you eat and drink while undergoing treatment.

What you eat has a major impact on how well your treatment works. Candies, fizzy drinks, and other fast food items can erode dental enamel. Not to mention the inevitable increase in oral bacteria. You will worsen your dental health without receiving proper orthodontic care. Tooth bonding is compromised by the sticky nature of candy and fast food. In light of this, it is essential that you prioritise eating well. It will help you heal more quickly and strengthen your teeth.

Flossing

Flossing is a crucial element of maintaining healthy teeth and gums. The process of threading the floss under the arch wire may require some extra time and practise if you have braces.

Use floss every night before bed to remove plaque and tartar from between teeth and along the gum line. If you've been keeping up with your brushing and flossing routine, you should notice that your braces are clean and glossy, and that the brackets and wires are clear to see.

Cut out the unhealthy foods

While you have braces on, try to avoid these foods:

Caramels, gum, and Fruit Roll-Ups are just few of the sticky treats that come to mind.

Bagels, beef jerky, and granola bars are all examples of chewy foods.

Popcorn, chips, and almonds are examples of crunchy foods; corn on the cob, apples, and carrots are examples of foods that need biting.

Understand the signs that indicate the need for an orthodontic appointment.

If any of the following occur, you should make an appointment with an orthodontist. Complications with braces include: severe pain after installation; wires and bands that come loose; braces that are damaged during sports; a broken elastic hook

What to do if you run out of bands or wax

You should always call your dentist or orthodontist if you have a toothache or other dental emergency. The dedicated orthodontists at Smilestone are there anytime you need them.

Adhere to Your Orthodontist's Orders

Your orthodontist is the expert in all matters related to the use, care, and upkeep of your orthodontic appliances. Once a month, you'll visit this professional to have your braces tightened and adjusted so that your teeth can straighten and your smile can shine. Listen carefully and do as your orthodontist instructs when wearing braces. Keep in mind that your orthodontist is a resource for you to turn to if you have any inquiries, feedback, or worries regarding your orthodontic care.

Leave your bad habits behind you

Nail biting, teeth grinding, and cigarette smoking are just a few examples of undesirable behaviours. Things like drinking alcohol and snacking fall under this category as well. Mindfulness and self-control can help you finally kick any destructive habit. To say, rather than to do. There are, however, ways to permanently kick the bad behaviours that could compromise the health of your teeth and the effectiveness of your braces.

Limit the likelihood of sports-related injuries

Put on a mouth guard so you don't hurt your teeth or gums when you play sports.

He or she will likely suggest gradually incorporating more nutritious high-fat foods, and fewer high-carb ones, into your diet, and encourage you to drink plenty of water along the way.

Striking the right balance of protein and fats requires a little ingenuity. Craving spaghetti bolognese? Ask for the bolognese in a bowl like chili or atop steamed vegetables and sprinkled with fresh-shaved parmesan. Cheese is a lifesaver on the Keto diet, which is a big plus in the flavor department. Also consider ordering a variety of appetizers instead of a main course since they’re typically low-carb like steak tartare, Thai chicken lettuce wraps, and shrimp cocktail. Vanessa recommends adding interesting umami elements like olives, capers, lemon zest, kimchi spices, red pepper flakes and everything bagel seasoning, a few of which you can keep with you on the go! “Spices really satisfy your palate and when a dish has umami, you end up eating less and feeling satiated because it’s so pleasurable.”

Wondering what fits into a keto diet — and what doesn’t? “It’s so important to know what foods you’ll be eating before you start, and how to incorporate more fats into your diet,” says Kristen Mancinelli, RD, author of The Ketogenic Diet: A Scientifically Proven Approach to Fast, Healthy Weight Loss, who is based in New York City. We asked her for some guidelines.

Ronnie scotts is amazing if you like jazz its not really food but its really random how good their fries are.. and theres an amazing iranian restaurant in soho called berenjak, ciccetti is amazing for italian but also all the san carlo restaurants are really good, if you want a fancy sushi spot instead of nobu i suggest dinings its the best food ever one of my fave restaurants in the world go to the branch in the mews and be ready to spendddd (i recommend their wagyu nigiri and their ponzu jelly and shaved truffle carpaccio), harrys is good they have great tartar and a truffle starter pasta , roka as well their salad is very yummy,.. hmm what else shoreditch has good food but its very hit and miss and its the kinda thing where you walk around and see where you end up, there are two bagels shops on brick lane like 20 seconds from each other both open 24/hr and both serve the same thing it’s hilarious and really good esp late at night, china town!! I never know the names but there are a lot of amazing places for dumplings boba and soup noodles, theres a bingsu and boba place (i think on shafstbury avenue like you see it when you walk out of china town) its amazing try the red bean one. Burger and lobster is cliche but honestly really good like the burgers are good fries are good and lobsters good lol.. and the most insider thing ill give you is VILLA MAMAS its actually my local food but as a cuisine and not home cooked which is rare even in my country hmu when you go ill tell you what to get. Oh and go to temper soho for their sunday roast its good!

this is the most indulgent thing, but. may i request the main 6 with an MC that absolutely loves to bake? (also!! can i just say i live for your headcanons? you're so good oh my god)

thank you!! 💕

🍞Main 6 + Baker MC

Asra

He also loves baking, and he’s great at it, but he always wants to be your sous

You’re both talented bakers, but he loves watching you in the kitchen too much to take charge

He also loves trying new recipes, the more challenging and elaborate the better - and if it flops, at least you did it together

You probably have a baking-date once a week, and take little care packages to your friends all over the city

If you didn’t, the shop would be overrun - you do your best, but there is a limit to how many cakes, cookies, pastries, and more just the two of you can take down

Julian

Crows all the time about how your hobby has saved his stomach lining - with all the coffee he drinks, he was in dire straits, but your talent means he’s never without a scone or a bagel to accompany it

Nothing lulls him to sleep like the smell of baking bread, for some reason

If you ever need to trick him into taking a nap, wait until he’s sitting on the couch, then throw something in the oven

Wears a comically too-small apron when he lends a hand on more complicated recipes

He can’t be trusted with things like fillings or proving, but his knife skills are no other

Nadia

Loves watching you in the kitchen almost as much as Asra does, but she asks a lot of questions

She’s fascinated by everything from the science of it (tartaric acid? in snickerdoodles?) to the more nebulous parts (how you know the right amount of flour just by feeling the weight)

Asks you frequently to teach her things like pastry-folding and jam-making

It takes a while before she’s confident enough in her skills to help you out in the kitchen, and she still worries she’s holding you back

But the look of pure joy she has when she frosts her first cupcake just might make you fall in love with her all over again

Muriel

Terrified of helping you in the kitchen, not because he doesn’t know how to bake, but because he’s convinced you can’t both fit in it at the same time

But he feels so bad about not lending a hand, and he likes supporting your passion so much, that he showers you in baking supplies

Hand-carved wooden spoons & spatulas, knitted tea cozies and oven mitts, copper cookware he found at a secondhand shop, beat out the dents, and polished like new

Very stern about Inanna not having a taste of cookie dough or pie filling, even if her pitiful eyes start to win you over

But he may meekly suggest a recipe for wolf-safe biscuits he found in a book totally by accident

Portia

You bake her one batch of muffins, and suddenly, unknowingly, you have entered a battle - nay, a war

Because you made her muffins, so she makes you bread; you bake her a cake as a thank you, and you get two dozen scones

And it never ends

You’d think moving in with her would settle it, but instead, your kitchen is just constantly full of more baked goods than either of you can hope to give away, and the dishes are never done

At this point, you might as well open a bakery, for both of your survival

Lucio

What a coincidence - he loves to eat

Says he wants to help, but any kind of cooking that isn’t meat on a stick over fire is a little beyond him, so baking is right out

Usually he sits on the counter in the most in-the-way way possible, stealing tastes of batter or filling and chattering at you while you work

Keeps his hands to himself ‘til the pan goes in the oven, and then pounces on you with all the affection-energy he’s been holding onto while you prepped

The flour on your clothes always ends up stuck in his eyeliner (which is payback for all the times his makeup has gotten on your clothes)

do you have any fav fanfics or one shots you wouldn’t mind linking? I just went through a breakup so I’d love some character/reader but I’ll take any kinda story that provides me happiness lol

I’m sorry to hear about your breakup nonnie, that’s always rough. Sending you all my support 💕

As for the recommendations, I don’t have any character/reader because I don’t read that, it doesn’t interest me. If you want character/character tho, I do have some faves (that aren’t mine xD). Bear in mind that since this is a curated list of my favorite fics, it will be mostly Spetsnaz content, a lot of NSFW stuff (I’ll indicate which ones are NSFW), all bottom Kapkan ofc, some BanditJäger, and occasionally other kind of stuff. So if that still sounds good to you, let’s see:

- Stray Puppy by @todragonsart honestly a must read, imo, such a great story!

- Russian roulette by @todragonsart, GlazKan where Kapkan is kidnapped and Glaz gets angry.

- The whole of Whumptober from @grain-crain-drain, I mean, anything from Grunkle is worth reading, but that collection is one of my faves.

- Wrong place, wrong time by magpiedeployed, an amazing GlazKan story. NSFW

- Fantasizing by @bbottombunk (at least I hope the tumblr and author are the same, if not, sorry!). A really good Tachanka/Kapkan and the fandom desperately needs more of that. NSFW

- Bagel bites by @zer0kaji, it’s angsty BanditJäger but not overly angsty stuff.

- Mistakes like this by @sheepish-uwu, another of my NSFW GlazKan indulgences.

- From @sheepish-uwu too, they’re unfinished by they are SO good: Sun models (Gridlock/Mira) and The Lion and the Lamb (DocLion)

- Dopamine by @juduseye, it’s so, so good and nuanced and I love that story, it’s what made me start shipping Doc/Castle!

- Vacation mode by @lecielazure, it’s yet another NSFW GlazKan story on my list of faves yes, and I adore this one.

- Love games by Hetsez. While FuzeJäger is not my favorite ship ever (and it has mentions of BliBan, which I really dislike), this story is superb, fantastically written, and the one that inspired me to start writing fic for this fandom too. It has some NSFW chapters.

- Home by @kabetsuhead, such a fluffy and adorable GlazKan fic, very underrated in my opinion.

- The fires of Spring by @painfulstitches17, is a treasure of a story, especially fi you’re a BanditJäger shipper.

- Drunk on you by @randomfandomsbro, another sweet and funny GlazKan ficlet that I love.

- Becoming the prey by @tartaricing, a really good NSFW Tachanka/Kapkan.

- Into the dark by @ee-vvaa, this author has other amazing stories, but this SAS centric hurt/comfort ficlet is seriously underrated in my personal opinion.

** And now, the @kiruuuuu corner, cause I have a few favorite stories that are hers:

- These two NSFW GlazKan one-shots @kiruuuuu wrote for me. I’m still crying over them 🙏

- Impulsive decisions, a delicious NSFW Pulse/Thermite one-shot. NSFW

- Making out like a Bandit, aka that one pre-Rainbow BanditJäger story. NSFW

- Catkan, where Tachanka and Kapkan get married. NSFW

- Don’t forget your jacket, it’s going to get wet, one of the hottest BanditJäger stories I’ve read. NSFW

As a reward for eliminating tartar I’ve hooked up a special vent to the local bakery. You can now have as many bagels and other baked goods as you please.

Soulmates: Chapter II

(Previous Chapter Here)

***

Kara felt those kinds of early starts were a way of life better left back home.

There was a delight to be found in the quietness of the world. The air was freezing cold, refreshing, had the blood pumping quick and the coffee in her hand feeling like good value for money this morning. The train carriage had been empty, that kind of empty that people spoke about sometimes, but Kara had never seen before today, where the chugging express train sped along the bridge in quiet jolts, the river beneath inky black ripples that bounced bright city light in bolts of gold, with only the darkest shade of purple on the horizon indicating the new day.

“It’s something, isn’t it?”

Kara heard the distinct thud of a cleaning cart hitting the door.

Kara froze.

“You are not the cleaning lady.” She tempered an embarrassed, mortified laugh as she turned around. “I’m. I’m so sorry if that, you know, sounded kind of arrogant?”

“I’m usually used to reporters asking most of the questions,” Miss Luthor spoke again with a strange smile. “Or, you know, talking.” Her lips wobbled with amusement.

“Your secret is safe with me. I wouldn’t be so sure about Cat either, I had the distinct pleasure of interning for her when I finished college—”

“You?” Kara balked.

“Oh yes.” Miss Luthor nodded at the surprise, craning down to pour hot coffee into two waiting mugs. “I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do, just that I didn’t want that thing to be…too Luthor-ish. Anyway, Cat can be brash, but she has a keen eye for fostering talent. If she didn’t see something in you then she wouldn’t have sent you.” She offered hot coffee.

“They gave me pre-written questions.” Kara quirked the corner of her mouth and lifted the printed sheets. “Thanks for the coffee, Miss Luthor.”

“Kara.” Lena’s eyes went a little wide at that. “Kara Danvers, I’m sorry I didn’t introduce myself—”

“That depends whether he’s beating you.” Kara wiggled her eyebrows and sat down.

“Lena.”

“Lena,” Kara corrected herself. “Can I just pre-start by saying that I am so sorry. Really, I am so sorry, and I did not write these questions. Could we start there—that I’m sorry?”

Kara felt her forehead break with dampness.

The pause hung for just a moment too long. “Was there a question on the end of that summary address?” Lena cleared her throat.

Kara clenched her eyes and didn’t want to say it.

The silence was deafening.

Kara didn’t dare look her in the eyes.

“Lena I’m so sorry—”

“Miss Luthor.” She forced the coolest of smiles. “I’m afraid I…have to be somewhere. If you’ll excuse me, Miss Danvers.”

“Of course.” Kara nodded and gathered her things, mortified and ashamed. “Erm, Miss Luthor, if I may before I leave?”

“Yeah?”

Here’s our newest menu that goes live tomorrow!

This menu is a culmination of decades of hard work—that I couldn’t have done without your support—that are real and tasty solutions to the problems that have come to define our times.

MIYA’S SUMMER 2020 MENU

WELCOME TO MIYA’S!

Today, in a world where our cruelty

to our fellow human and to other living things has given rise to a pandemic, living and eating in a way that helps heal our suffering planet is the most important thing we can do with our lives; and, it just so happens that doing it all a better way—which takes hard work, sacrifice, commitment, and openness to change—makes life so much more fulfilling and delicious! I’m confident you’ll taste the difference in everything we create for you in our humble little kitchen

In the year 2150, people will be eating in a way that is healthier not only for their bodies but also for our whole planet. People will be eating fewer animals, since they will have learned that a plant-based diet is the healthiest way to eat; and they will hunt and farm animals in a way that is more humane. At Miya's, you will experience a kinder and more caring future, where sushi has evolved to become a way of eating that honors and celebrates all life on Earth

March Mayhem 2020

Above Photo: Momofuku Milk Bar birthday cake

How do I even start this? Why am I even writing this? Does any of this matter? I don’t know.

Life is not normal anymore and I don’t know when it will be. That sentence alone makes me want to bury myself underneath a blanket with Baby Dog and never come out. There have been such nice, calming days mixed with insane, sleepless nights and I can’t find a balance and I guess nobody can and we’re all in this together. So what are you supposed to do? Stay home. Eat everything. Listen to music you love. Watch things that make you happy. Write to people who care for you. Read things that can uplift you or help you escape. And in the meantime, I guess I’m here to tell you what I loved and hated over the past month. Behold the best meme I’ve seen in a long time.

NOTE: All of the things below that involved me leaving my house happened before March 15th when life in NYC was still semi-normal.

I finally went for dinner at I Sodi and it was disappointing! What the fuck! This isn’t rocket science but why would cold bread be served in a covered basket? Shouldn’t warm bread be covered? For christ’s sake, just throw the bread at me if it’s cold. Also, a good steak tartare doesn’t need any lettuce accessories, get the fucking leaves off of the plate, please. And their lasagna? Yikes. It was overcooked and it felt like eating a sad book. Will not return. (Ugh, even if I wanted to return I can’t.)

I had a slice at Best Pizza Shop in Astoria and it was great! Love a Detroit style slice.

I made it over to Comfortland in Astoria and their crullers were delicious.

I finally tried the birthday cake at Momofuku Milk Bar and my god… the vanilla one (which is even better than the chocolate) is probably the best cake I’ve ever had. You can get them by the slice at their flagship store in NYC or you can be ambitious as hell and make one at home.

The cannoli cream cheese at Brooklyn Bagel & Coffee Company in Astoria is a problem, don’t try it or you’ll forever be in love.

I made a list of things to do during this quarantine that I’m really trying to keep up with.

You can see my favourite tweets of the month over here.

I watched the (Hulu) Hillary documentary online and it was phenomenal. Everyone should see it.

I chose the Briogeo birthday gift from Sephora and MAN was that the wrong choice. It lasts for two showers! What the hell! I should’ve went with the Milk one. Don’t make my mistake. Oh! And if your birthday falls within the quarantine, just go online to get your birthday gift because they have free shipping right now with the code FREESHIP and you’ll have to buy something since they won’t allow a cart with no total amount, but the cheapest thing you can buy are the mini Sephora Collection cleansing wipes which are $2. So spending $2.19 (tax included) for a birthday gift, makeup wipes and two samples is still pretty good, in my opinion.

On the other hand, the birthday gift from Ulta is incredible. It’s full size and it’s just a great face scrub. It’ll definitely last at least six months, and I like it so much that I might buy another one when it’s done. Sephora could really learn some things from Ulta.

Other than listening to The Phantom of the Opera soundtrack on repeat, I really love this song. Ignore the title.

Nathan and I attempted to rewatch Final Destination and just couldn’t. There are certain movies you just can’t watch at this point in time.

We watched Ticks as well and that was somehow more of an enjoyable time.

Also watched They Live, which I can’t believe I’d never seen before. It’s like a longer Twilight Zone episode, which means it was great.

So incredibly sad to hear about Gotham Bar & Grill. Their food was incredible.

One thing that I’ve started to do is watch food clips in the morning right after I wake up. It’s better than checking your email. It’s better than reading the news. It’s better than anything you’re currently doing. Here’s what I watched this morning.

Had lunch at Astoria Provisions and the food was as good as I hoped. The service was lovely, too.

I made a deconstructed poutine at home on my birthday and it was perfect. I cooked the potatoes, then I spread the curds on top and baked those to melt it a bit. And then I made the gravy and kept the gravy in a separate bowl for dunking. Nothing got soupy or gross! The fries stayed crispy! It was genius, I say.

Why haven’t I always bought my bedsheets at Marshalls? I got a lovely Kate Spade set for $40, which is a deal.

Another incredible New Yorker cover.

Above Photo: By Eric Drooker

I haven’t really attempted to watch any whole episodes of any of the late night talk shows lately but the fact that Jimmy Fallon has his wife filming it and his kids in it is really cute.

I went to Fantasy Explosion in Brooklyn and it was great, wish they had more stuff but what they do have is wicked.

I finished watching the new season of On My Block and just wow (spoilers ahead). Here are my thoughts: I love Jasmine so much and I wish she was the main star of the show, Jamal having sex like that was so weird and abnormal I was almost confused by it, the scene with Spooky and his dad made me cry and I fucking sobbed at the ending.

If you live in Mississauga, The Apple Market (by Camilla Public School) can pull your grocery order for you and you can pick it up curbside if you email them your grocery list to [email protected] - thank you for telling me about this, Marla! It’s eons faster than other major grocery stores are right now, and you’re also helping out a small business, so definitely look into it if you’re interested.

The restaurant Vesta in Astoria is giving out free meals to any laid off restaurant workers in the neighborhood, which is so generous and amazing, love that place, they’ll give you more details if you call them.

I went over what I did from my winter list of things to do.

I went on Nathan’s podcast twice and baby you’re gonna be hearing me lots more on it in the coming weeks.

I’m a maniac so I made a spring list of things I want to do.

Things that I’m looking forward to this month: I got a gift card to Sephora from my brother and sister-in-law so I’ll definitely use that (looking for recommendations of new things to try, thinking of getting more Drunk Elephant products since I’ve loved the samples I’ve had in the past), watching more Elaine and Puddy episodes of Seinfeld, I keep thinking of starting Friday Night Lights again but there are so many other things to watch so I can’t decide, I think I’ll write another quarantine ideas list since I keep thinking of more things to add on, and oh can we cancel April Fools Day this year? Nobody needs it right now.

P.S. I love this little girl and I love this song.

The Best Foods To Eat In Montreal In 2019 (And The Best Montreal Restaurants To Eat Them At)

From bagels fresh from the oven, to warming pho and poutine with a twist, find out the best foods to eat in Montreal, and the restaurants to add to your hit list.

Oh look – I’ve been eating my way around another destination. It’s become quite the habit of mine! It’s all in the name of research though, so I can pass on some top tips to you guys, and encourage you to go on your own culinary adventures.

When it comes to food, Montreal has a reputation for being one of the best cities in Canada. There’s the fabulous mix of French and Canadian cuisine, plus plenty of multicultural dynamics, with Vietnamese, Mexican and Middle Eastern restaurants all making their mark.

There are stylish Montreal restaurants with Instagrammable décor, food markets to buy Quebecois ingredients, plus places deserving of several Michelin stars, if the rating system was present in Canada.

Old Montreal

Montreal is a city that takes eating out seriously. In fact, after New York, it has more restaurants per capita than any other city in North America. It’s a city I’d 100% recommend you eat your way around, sampling a little bit of everything along your journey. So, take a look at the video, then scroll down to see a few of the best foods to eat in Montreal right now!

The Best Bagels In Montreal – Fairmount Bagel At Crew Collective

Firstly, Crew Collective is an incredible place to stop for a coffee and a bite to eat. Housed in an old bank, you’ll find the counter area located where the tellers once were. The building is full of opulence, with high ceilings and grand staircases. It’s part café / part workspace too (hello dream freelance office!)

Secondly, Crew Collective serves up great coffee and bagels. I went for the Fairmount bagel, which was served with smoked sockeye salmon, cream cheese, capers, pickled shallots and fresh herbs. Photogenic and tasty, Crew Collective was a great place to soak up the relaxed Montreal vibes too.

The Best Pho In Montreal – I Am Pho

There’s a huge Vietnamese population in Montreal. In fact, a lot of the restaurants in Chinatown are actually run by Vietnamese people. It’s a cuisine I absolutely adore. It’s so fresh and flavoursome, with its mix of raw and cooked ingredients, and kicks of chilli and lime.

After a day of snowy adventures on Mount Royal, we headed back to downtown in search of a warming bowl of pho. I Am Pho had excellent reviews, and we couldn’t wait to try it out. After some tasty summer rolls, we both enjoyed a huge bowl of beef pho, which came with all the extras, including lime, beansprouts and fresh lime and basil. It was more than either of us could manage, but it certainly revived us after our busy morning playing in the snow.

The Best Wine Bar In Montreal – Pullman

A few locals recommended we check out Pullman – a Montreal wine bar, which takes its food just as seriously. It’s a cosy spot, lit by a few flickering candles. There’s an enormous wine list, which at first was overwhelming to flick through, but thankfully the staff were happy to guide us to a bottle that suited our mood and palette.

The food was great too. They serve a menu of small plates, perfect for sharing, with local ingredients like Quebec cheese, and tasty combinations like beets with buttermilk and herbs. Our favourite dishes were the tuna tiradito, venison tartare, and the local cheese board.

Top Tip: If you’d love to try some great wines but often feel restricted by budgets, visit Pullman on a Sunday. The entire wine list is half price, so you can try some bottles that might otherwise have been out of your price range.

The Best Smoked Meat Sandwich In Montreal – Main Deli

Did you even go to Montreal if you didn’t try a smoked meat sandwich?! This is one of the city’s most iconic foods, and one you should definitely try on your first trip to the city. Montreal smoked meat is made from brisket, then layered up and stuffed between two slices of rye bread with a squirt of yellow mustard for extra flavour.

While everyone will tell you to go to Schwartz’s Deli on Saint-Laurent Boulevard (sometimes there’s a queue out of the door!) we’d had it on good authority that the sandwich at Main Deli opposite was better. It’s not a refined or pretty dish, but that meat sure is tasty.

The Best Peruvian Food In Montreal – Tiradito

Located close to Place d’Armes, Tiradito is a great spot for times when you fancy a cocktail and a bite to eat in a buzzy environment. It’s a trendy spot, with red neon lights and a young professional clientele.

The passion fruit sour (a twist on the Peruvian pisco sour) was absolutely delicious – sweet, tangy and oh so boozy! Meanwhile, the food was colourful and elegantly presented too. The tuna tiradito was a huge triumph, along with the crab tostadas. I could have happily eaten my way through the entire menu!

The Best Restaurant With A View Of Montreal – Les Enfants Terribles

We visited Les Enfants Terribles on our final evening in Montreal, and it felt like the perfect spot to reflect on our time in the city. They have a few restaurants around the city, but the star of the show is their 44th floor venue in Place Ville Marie. It’s one of the tallest buildings in the city, and THE place to enjoy lunch or dinner with a view of the city.

In London, restaurants with views as good as this one would come with an enormous price tag. However, the food and drinks at Les Enfants Terribles are surprisingly reasonable, for example mains are between £10-£15. Food was good, although I think this is somewhere you come more to enjoy the experience and the twinkly city lights than anything else!

The Best Value Steak Frites In Montreal – Brasserie T

Have you heard of Toque! – one of the best restaurants in Montreal? Well, Brasserie T is its less formal sister restaurant. The ethos is the same though, so expect great ingredients and chefs who know how to really work some magic in the kitchen.

We enjoyed salmon tartare and steak frites, washed down with some delicious red wine. I thought the steak was excellent; juicy, medium rare as requested and served alongside a mountain of perfectly cooked chips. The restaurant was a nice weekend spot, with the buzz of a Parisian brasserie!

The Best Trendy Bar In Montreal – Bar Furco

After dinner one night we were looking for somewhere to go for a drink. Someone recommend we check out Bar Furco, a local bar, housed in a former fur factory. Along with all the usual drinks, Furco has an interesting cocktail list, plus craft beers and organic wines.

We visited on a Saturday night, and I couldn’t help but enjoy the eclectic crowd, which included students in their early 20s, couples in their 50s, and a few big groups of girls in their 30s. There was also a DJ spinning some tunes, creating a bit of a party vibe to welcome in the weekend.

The Best Vegan Food In Montreal – LOV

If you’re vegan or vegetarian, this is one of the best places to eat in Montreal! While most restaurants in Montreal cater for both, LOV was the only place we visited that was dedicated to the cuisine.

We visited the branch in Golden Square Mile, which is beautifully stylish with giant lampshades hanging from the ceiling and plush booths in green and white stripes. The ladies toilets even had a mini urban garden, with a plant growing out of an unused toilet!

The menu at LOV is great fun too, with lots of choice including pasta, tacos, pho, salads, burgers, banh mi and even a vegan poutine. Is it the best poutine in Montreal? Nope, but it’s not far off! Well, when in Quebec…!

The Best Poke In Montreal – Le Poke Bar

We rocked up at Le Poke Bar after an intense travel day. Long haul flight + 5 hour time difference + a packed day in the city… we were tired, had eaten lots of carbs and were craving something healthy and delicious.

We were so happy to stumble upon Le Poke Bar. They have several poke bowls on the menu, or you can build your own (as we did). We enjoyed a salmon, kale, edamame and rice creation, which was super fresh and tasty. It was massive too, so if you’re visiting as a couple, I’d recommend ordering one to share.

The Best Coffee In Montreal – Nous Sommes Café

This is a tough category to judge based on my experiences in the city, as other than a watery Tim Hortons when we were in a hurry, we had a lot of excellent coffee in Montreal.

My favourites were at Pigeon, L’Editeur and Nous Sommes Café. The latter is run by a lovely guy from South Korea, and located in the colourful Plateau neighbourhood. The coffee was great, décor was simple and the metallic cups were next level cool – just check out those reflections!

The Best Burger In Montreal – Verses Bistro

After a morning at Bota Bota (Montreal’s spa boat) we were ravenous and in need of big feed! Verses Bistro is a charming spot in Old Montreal, serving up a reasonably priced and varied menu.

The burgers were excellent, stuffed with bacon, brie, pickles and salad. Plus the portion was enormous – I mean, I actually had to admit defeat (which is very rare!)

The Best Restaurants In Montreal… to be continued!

And finally – while I feel like I ate my way around Montreal, there are plenty of restaurants I’d book a flight back to try! It’s a city made for food lovers, so if you get the chance, try these and let me know how they are…

Pastel – Innovative tasting menus from top chef Jason Morris.

Europea – A Theatrical culinary odyssey that you’ll never forget (think Heston Blumenthal, but Canadian!)

Monarque – Seasonal ingredients, interesting menus and a great space, complete with a view of the kitchen.

Un Po’ di Più – Exceptional Italian food in a relaxed setting in Montreal’s old town.

Toque! – No.2 on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants 2018, Toque! takes fine dining to the next level.

Elena – Sleek Italian serving some of the best pizzas in Montreal.

Dinette Triple Crown – Authentic Southern BBQ. They’ll even pack your food into a picnic basket so you can take it to the park!

Macro – One of the best seafood restaurants in Montreal.

Le Blueboy – Playful ice creams for the biggest kid you know.

Finally, if you want to learn more about the city’s cuisine, I’d recommend taking a Montreal food tour. We really enjoyed the one we did with Local Montreal Food Tours, which introduced us to some great restaurants in Montreal Old Town.

I hope you’ve enjoyed eating your way (virtually) around Montreal with me! Big thanks to Destination Canada, Quebec Original and Tourisme Montreal for inviting us to explore this beautiful city. Lots of great info on their sites if you want to find out more. As always, all opinions are my own.
