I came across @bestofyul Instagram account a few weeks ago. I'd like to start out by saying that I rarely get amused by Internet humour. Funny Instagram memes make me relate to them, smile and then tag my friends at most. In addition, we're all familiar with the fact that when someone types "haha" or "LOL", they don't actually laugh, right? Internet haha's are a lie!
Best of YUL account is different. Its witty humour actually made me laugh out loud, for real. I'm quite certain that countless smiling in tears emojis in the comment section of his photos are legit reactions. Best part? @bestofyul is from Montreal.
Satire at its best! He mocks typical bloggers and "foodies" in such a tasteful and hilarious way. Best of YUL gives comic reviews to Montreal things you'd never expect to get analyzed. See for yourself. You have to read the captions!
It was my birthday over the weekend and I wanted to have a special meal, so I went on the Domino's website and ordered a large pepperoni, green pepper, mushroom, and onion pizza. The website is very #cool and modern. It allows you to build your own pizza, and you can even find a coupon to make your meal cheaper. Once you've placed your order, a person named Ahmed makes your pizza. The food itself was great. It tasted way better than the horrible meal I had at Pizza Hut last year. Service was #awesome. Ahmed is good at what he does and the website even allowed me to know exactly what he was doing as he went through all the steps required to make my pizza. NOTE: I am assuming that Ahmed identifies as male. I did not ask what his pronoun was. I apologize if this post offends him. 19.5/20 #bestofYUL

I liked Tim Hortons' water but I wanted to try something else so I went to Couche-Tard and got a bottle of Naya water. The first thing I noticed was the fact that the label is placed much lower than on the Tim Hortons bottle. The bottle is also thicker and much more solid. The water was good but it wasn't as cold as the one from Tim Hortons. It was still refreshing. The shape of the bottle is also very cool. Service was good and the cashier made me feel very welcome. It was great. 17/20 #bestofYUL

I was in the mood for some Japanese cuisine so I went to Subway and ordered the Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki sandwich with the House Sauce. I asked for the sandwich to be heated but I could still feel that the chicken wasn't fresh/warm enough. It was still good because I like traditional teriyaki sauce, and the various toppings also made the sandwich better (I got everything except for hot peppers). I feel like the House Sauce was a good choice but I don't know if this particular sandwich would've been better with some other sauce. Service was quick and effective, and I like the type of green they use for the trays. The cashier was Hispanic. 13.5/20 #bestofYUL

IGA has a huge parking lot for everyone who likes to take their car to go buy food. It's always packed so you have to look for a spot, but it allows you to stay #dry and #warm in all weathers. #bestofYUL

I was in the mood for something Jewish so I went to Tim Hortons and ordered a bagel with cream cheese. The bread looked good when I first saw it. However, once I got my order with the cheese and everything, I noticed the bagel was a bit too dark. The Tim Hortons employee burned my bagel and did not spread the cheese evenly. I was disappointed. Service was quick but the food wasn't satisfying. Members of the staff were wearing cowboy hats, which didn't feel very Jewish. 7.5/20 #bestofYUL

This is what a Tic Tac looks like. The packaging is orange, and the Tic Tacs taste like fresh oranges, but they are just small white candies. It is a bit confusing at first, but you get used to it after you eat a few of them in a row. Again, love the simplicity. Very effective. #bestofYUL

Subway restaurants are beautifully decorated: comfortable red and green #chairs, modern ceiling lamps, great pictures of bread, cucumbers, cheese and apples, and solid tables. The nice smell of fresh food is always great as well. #bestofYUL
