"What doh kill duz fatten"...one of my Father's favourite Trinidadian idioms also known as "What does not kill you will make you stronger". Never more relevant to me than right now - in so many ways. Our business has changed, contracted, grown and thrived during this Pandemic. Not quite sure what a second wave would look like...but thank you to everyone that has collaborated with us, supported and encouraged us - including my Family and my Staff ... Thank you to the CBC team for engaging us on our Pandemic experience. Here is a little bit of insight as to what the past few months have been like. Here's to weathering the storm and pivoting! https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-92/clip/15788470

If you’ve ever enjoyed our occasional Bagel days at our café - these awesome Montreal-Style Bagels are from The Bagel Run in Orleans! As a former Montrealer, IMO (in my opinion), these are hands-down the best Bagels in Ottawa-and they now have a delivery zone. Lucky for me I’m in it. Enjoy their traditional and. On temporary flavours - delicious!... https://www.facebook.com/428296373978816/posts/1742487405893033/?d=n
