"This public market by the Lachine Canal champions local products year-round, but come harvest time, it overflows with outdoor stalls and a restaurant zone full of action. This year, hungry market-goers can relish in returning favorites like Léché Desserts’ fluffy doughnuts, Satay Brothers’ flavorful laksa, steamed buns, and spicy salads, or Falafel Yoni’s top-notch sabiche and falafel sandwiches. But don’t overlook Aylwin Barbecue; unlike other popular options, this seasonal stall doesn’t have another outpost, and it’s responsible for dishing what is very likely the best this city has in Texan-style barbecue: ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and tasty sides. Take your pick, claim your spot at a picnic table or by the canal, and rejoice that this hub for local merchants, started in 1933, is still going strong." - Valerie Silva
