A Montreal grocery store that went viral on TikTok thanks to its unique French snacks is set to open two new Quebec locations.

That's right — there will soon be even more places in the province to buy Kinder Country, Pépitos, Bonne Maman cakes, Lipton peach iced tea and all your favourite European imported foods.

Top Discount Canada announced it's opening a store in Montreal's Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood on April 23 and another in Quebec City in the fall of 2022.

There are three existing locations in Greater Montreal: one on avenue Mont-Royal Est, one on rue Saint-Hubert and one in Brossard.

In April 2021, French influencer Andy-Riwan Gernet (@lefrenchexplorer on TikTok) filmed himself shopping at Top Discount, propelling the store to social media stardom. The video racked up more than 230,000 views within a few hours and it has now reached 260,000 views.

Since then, several videos have been posted on TikTok of people at the store sharing their unique and tasty finds.

If you are French, this is also the place to find hygiene products that will remind you of your childhood — whether it's the softness of Dop vanilla shower gel in the summer or Mir or Ariel laundry detergents that smell like heaven.

In the comments, many users have asked for more locations to open in Quebec, such as in Laval or Granby, but also in other cities in other provinces, including Ottawa and Toronto. Fingers crossed!
