Meanwhile in New Siberia...
Almost stayed up all night to finish A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, but then decided to be reasonable and go to sleep around 2:30 a.m. This book is bad for my health. How Hosseini manages to make such dreadful stuff filled with violence and…

Restaurant Review: Crudessence- Gluten-Free, Raw & Delicious
With two locations, one in the Plateau and one near Concordia, Crudessence is a great go to for a healthy gluten-free meal or veggie juice. While I am not always in the mood for raw food, Crudessence has a great gluten-free menu and all the desserts I have tried have been amazing (actually amazing- vegan or not).
My go to for lunch is the Exceptional wrap with chipotle quinoa wrapped in a nori and a rice sheet with avocado, lettuce, sprouts, red pepper, carrot and onion. To go with my wrap I ordered the Vert-dur juice with kale, parsley, fennel, apple, celery, lemon and ginger.
My other go to is the Lasagna with layers of sliced zucchini, fresh basil, sun dried tomato sauce and macadamia ricotta, served with caesar salad.
This restaurant is not for everyone. If you don't like things that taste "too healthy" this might not be the place for you. But if you are open to new things I would definitely try it and make sure to order the brownie with "ice cream" for dessert!

There are two locations. I always go to the one on Mackay near Sherbrooke.

Note: It seems like all the restaurants I have posted have been vegetarian or vegan (except for one). I have found that vegetarian and vegan restaurants are more accommodating to dietary restrictions, probably because they know what it's like to be left out. The same thing with my friends, most of my friends have some form of food restriction which makes them very understanding and sensitive about celiac disease (and makes us a pain when we all go for dinner- no onions, no milk products, vegan, no pork, no seafood, no eggplant, no avocado, no egg...)
