If a delicious meal that's made with love from a local restaurant and saves you a bit of cash is your ideal take-out trifecta, consider ordering something with eggs.

Eggs add a boost of flavour and nutrition to any meal. A serving of just two large eggs provides 13 grams of protein, plus vitamin A, D, E folate, iron, zinc and choline. What's even better is that they can be eaten at any time of the day: before work as breakfast, during your lunch break or while you wind down in the evening.

You might say Simon Bernard has maple syrup in his veins. For more than 30 years, the owner of La p'tite cabane d'la côte, a sugar shack in Mirabel, has harvested the sweet sap of over 3,500 maple trees to produce delicious maple products as well as crispy oreilles de crisse, old-fashioned pea soup, and mountains of fèves au lard, not to mention many evenings of fun.

But lately, Quebec’s sweetest tradition has fallen on sour times.

If nothing else, 2020 was the year of culinary trends. Dalgona coffee, sourdough bread, pancake cereal — we've all kept ourselves nice and busy in the kitchen as we adapted to the world around us. But lately, it's fair to say there's been a bit of a universal cooking rut. After all, there’s only so much banana bread you can bake before never wanting to see another banana again.

Seeing as we've begun a brand-new year, it feels like the perfect time to introduce new meal plans into your routine — especially if you're done with skipping meals due to lack of motivation or creativity. A great way to help out with that might be to subscribe to a meal subscription service, like Goodfood.  Plus, right now, you can get 6 free meals (3 free meals in your first 2 baskets) using promo code NARCITY6.

Goodfood is one of the biggest meal subscription services in Canada today; it all started with a simple goal, to help people prepare delicious, yet healthy meals from the comfort of their own home. Now, six years later, they're a team of close to 3,000 people helping deliver monthly meals across Canada.

People have always had different ways of welcoming the new year. Whether it’s dressing up for a big party or a simple night in with your S.O., it’s always been a wonderful opportunity to reflect on past accomplishments and spend time with loved ones. Even better, it’s a free pass to indulge in all the tasty foods we love!

And even though this December 31, we'll be cozy and safe at home instead, some traditions remain. You still want to be sure that the food you choose to spoil yourself with lets you start the new year off the right way.

A cozy night in is best matched with a warm meal to indulge in. You get into your fluffy pyjamas, turn up the heater, and then, the internal battle begins. What restaurant is left to order from that you haven’t already had 100 times?

Having spent most of the year indoors, it’s fair to assume you’ve probably exhausted every single restaurant on your takeout bucket list. While some places have been forced to shut down, others have braved the pandemic and introduced even more tempting food and better experiences.

Thanksgiving weekend is here — but since private gatherings are prohibited in Montreal, you're only allowed to mark the day of thanks with people you live with, meaning many families won't be able to get together. 

Nevertheless, you can still look forward to good festive food!
