    Mike, a good thing to get grease/oil out of your clothes is body powder. Talc or cornstarch, doesn't matter. Just sprinkle some on the spots, work it in, and let it set for a while. The next time you wash the garment, the grease will be gone.

    I'm sure it's been said before but if you go to Montreal you simply cannot leave without trying Patisserie au Kouign Amann. They have some of the best croissants I've ever had, and they also do incredible kouign amann in the very traditional breton way. I used to go there every single week when I lived in Montreal. It's like you just stepped in from the French countryside. Definitely also worth going to Pied de Cochon; the fried pig foot is a highlight as well as the duck in a can.

I just wish the noods had soaked up more of the broth, which was probably the best broth I've ever had! Next time we go, we're going to try their chicken ramen, which is 2 doors down.
