CA LEM Creamery — home to ice cream flavours, such as "London Fog," "Orange Creamsicle," "Vietnamese Coffee," "Matcha Crème Brûlée," "Cookie Monster" and "Mojito" — has just opened a new location in Montreal's Old Port.  

If you ask us, the more ice cream this city has to offer the better! Especially with summer weather fast approaching.

There are two other CA LEM locations in Montreal: one in NDG and one in the Plateau. 

You'll probably recognize the NDG location from the adorable bubblegum pink camper van out front (from which they also sometimes serve scoops and swirls). 

CA LEM's new Old Port location is at 315, Place d’Youville — across from Gibby's and steps away from Mandy's.
