Montreal Trivia
Originally known as Ville-Marie,
or City of Mary, the city of Montreal got its name from “Mount Royal”, which is
the the hill at the center of Montreal. French is the official language of our
city. In fact, Montreal has the largest French speaking population of any city
in North America outside of France. Montreal is a very clean city, family
friendly, and has many historical and cultural attractions.

Fried Apple Pies
It’s always fun to
discover and share a new tasty recipe. Some of the recipes I’ve found over the years
are pretty close knockoffs of some classic favorite foods (maybe even an occasional junk food). Here’s an easy recipe if
you’ve ever craved apple pies from the golden arches. Sure...go ahead and try it but, don't eat too many!
- 3 green apples
- One box of ready-rolled puff pastries
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon of nutmeg
- 2 or more cups of canola oil – depending on pot size (enough to submerge the pies)
—Peel apples, chopping them into little pieces, placing them into a pot on the stove.
—Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir until mixed.
—Cook on medium heat for 10 minutes (or until apples have softened). Remove pan from stove and let cool for 30 minutes.
—With a sharp knife, cut two sheets of ready-rolled pastry, each into 4 strips.
—With your finger, lightly wet the edges of each strip.
— Add 2 teaspoons of apple mixture onto one half of each strip. Fold the pastry over, and press a fork onto the edges to create little grooves around the pie.
—Cool in the fridge for 15 minutes.
—Heat oil in a wok (or deep-fryer). To gauge whether it’s hot enough, dip a small piece of puff pastry into the oil. If the pastry sizzles and browns in 10 seconds, it’s hot enough.
—Place two pies in the oil, cooking for 2 to 3 minutes (or until golden), gently flipping for even coverage.
—Once golden, gently lift each pie with a slotted spoon, allowing the oil to drain into the pot, then place on a plate lined with paper towels.
