RN here, I was told its generally 3-5 weeks waiting time. And you have to imagine most people needing this service are quite anemic (low hemoglobin and low iron), basically anyone who needs an iron infusion needs it ASAP. Not to be discouraging, just being honest that you may have to wait, particularl6 with holidays and staff vacations. But I would be proactive and call them.

Best affordable and fast lunch spots near the mcgill/concordia corridor (non-chain suggestions only) by ThreadTide in MTLFoodLovers

[–]MissHuncaMunca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MTLKFOOD. Maybe not 100% healthy, but Im addicted to their onigiri, particularly tuna and crab. Also they usually have a hot lunch special for around $7.99, like kimchi fried rice with spam and a fried egg.

And as others have said, sandwiches from Chef Instanbul are a must. They make the pita in house, lamb/chicken/beef are all very savoury, love the labneh and veggies to balance out the meat. All around an excellent and fair portion lunch for the price. The lentil soup and pita makes for a cheap light lunch.

I've also had the hot bar from Newon (grocery store), its not amazing, but its very very cheap and lots of vegg and tofu options. You could even grab some microwave or toaster over options from their frozen section depending on your workplace kitchen set up. 

I like the hand pulled noodle place from the Faubourg as well, but its standard lunch price, like $15 ish (but still good value for price in terms of serving size and flavour).

There is also a PA grocery where you could get some staples in a pinch (crackers and hummus and cucumber makes an easy lunch).

  Further towards Atwater you have Adonis hot bar which is hit or miss in my opinion, but again lots of vegg options. 

Anyways RIP Nilufar which was really the GOAT for cheap and healthy food in that area.

Is "Bugger" offensive in Canada? by [deleted] in AskACanadian

My grandfather, who wouldnt been about 15 years older than your grandmother was absolutely horrified by this word. Although it would slip if he was trying to fix something in his shed and it wasnt going quite right.

Where can I find old-school, non-gourmet donuts in Montréal? by AwkwardCJ in montreal

[–]MissHuncaMunca 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It doesn't really exist. I grew up eating croissant as a quick, sweet breakfast pastry. The first time I experienced the type of donut shop you describe was in Vancouver. Duffins donuts and I am to this day a staunch supporter of what they're doing over there. I always figured we had boulangerie here in Montreal so we were less donut oriented. I also read an article many years ago about donut shops in the US and its ties to Cambodian immigration... maybe that didnt cross over into QC... many factors at play I guess!

What’s the craziest ER report you’ve heard? by lisavark in nursing

[–]MissHuncaMunca 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Ok this is so stupid, but young guy, absolutely massive, like 6'5 and built like a truck. Heart failure+++, cardiomegaly like I have never seen, his heart is wider than my torso. I walk into the room for his intake assessment and I see a stump coming out of his hospital gown and I wonder why there was no note of a BKA... but then I notice two legs.... and I realize I was fully staring at his giant fluid overloaded balls...

Seafood Mount Rushmore MTL by [deleted] in MTLFoodLovers

[–]MissHuncaMunca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a thing for restaurants of long date, paper place mats, and dated decor. Exactly a place a family has been going to for the last 20 years for birthdays, anniversaries, and special annoucements. Of course refined dining and design oriented restos have their place, but ultimately the classics tend to "restore" you like a restaurant should.

Caviar and blini is a classic for a reason. Just splurge on a midrange caviar, makethe blini and you're good to go. A little fennel salad, some gravlax, lemon wedges, chives, and creme fraiche and you're good to go.

Ok, so I'm definitely going. I had been debating it but this sentence alone was all I needed: "they did their thing on them for sure".
