more about Chabanel district
家属email来的：
Rue Chabanel, in the city's north end, is the soul of Montréal's extensive garment industry. Every Saturday, from about 8:30 to 1, many of its manufacturers and importers open their doors to the general public. Well, they do if they feel like it. What results is part bazaar, part circus, and often all chaos -- but friendly chaos.When Montrealers say "Chabanel," they mean the eight-block stretch just west of boulevard St-Laurent. The factories and shops here are tiny -- dozens of them are crammed into each building. The goods seem to get more stylish and more expensive the farther west you go. For really inexpensive leather goods, sportswear, children's togs, and linens, try the shops at 99 rue Chabanel; 555 rue Chabanel offers more-deluxe options. The manufacturers and importers at 555 have their work areas on the upper floors and have transformed the mezzanine into a glitzy mall with bargains in men's suits, winter coats, knit goods, and stylish leather jackets. A few places on Chabanel accept credit cards, but bring cash anyway. It's easier to bargain if you can flash bills, and if you pay cash, the price will often "include the tax."

Here are driving directions to Chabanel area I forgot to include:
Chabanel district
The Chabanel district is Montreal's home of the needle trade and clothing factory outlets for the public.
Directions:
Take Highway 40 to the Boul. Metropolitain, exit at Boul. St-Laurent (east of exit 71). You should be heading north up Boul. St-Laurent. Pass Beauharnois Street, Legendre Street - then it's Chabanel.
For orientation purposes, if you're at Jarry Street, you're below the Metropolitain blvd (the 40) and are too far south of Chabanel. If you're at Henri-Bourassa, you're too far north and you've already passed Chabanel.
99 Chabanel is one of the biggest factory outlet buildings in the area, but don't pass up the shops at 111, 125, 225, 333, 433, and 555 Chabanel too.

看你们去Montreal，我都快要淌口水了。可惜星期天已经有安排，希望你们玩得开心。推荐几个吃饭的地方，以示
3895 St-Laurent的Schwartz不少美国人专程来Montreal为吃他们的smoked meat。价格低廉。
Queen Mary离Decarie很近有一间朝鲜料理。四人$70，包括汤，色拉，三文鱼头，小菜数蝶，寿司一板，天妇罗一盆，烧烤牛肉一大蝶，炸香蕉。
雨MM知道市中心的那个希腊广场，中饭是买一送一，口味不错。
还有几家柬埔寨、奥地利、法国、意大利餐馆，下次谁想试，我再去找地址吧。
遗憾的是，我至今未在Montreal找到中意的中餐馆。觉得还不如Ottawa。South Shore有间中国人开的日本料理，$20元一人，十道菜4120 Ste-Catherine St的Kaizen Treehouse是个追星的好去处，寿司做得很有创意，口味上乘，就是太太太贵了。
对购物有兴趣的MM，呵呵，下次吧。北美很多成衣是在Montreal加工的。有兴趣和力气的话，去工厂里买。运气好的话，能高兴了你，嫉恨了我。若干年前，我在工厂楼的某个大厅里，经历一场Guess的买卖。都是比合同所订多做了的衣衫裤裙，挂着商标$175.00的秋装，现金$15。
