Food, Seafood (dont waste the bre's)
Report by food expert 
This is the new Auchan that we discovered.
We saw giant crabs on sale, when we got to our neighbourhood Auchan, the guy says (An asian) that they never received the shipment, none. But he told me, at FSB, they have them and the sale will be over by tonight. hahah
So we drove to the FSB one, which is about the same distance (2km away), huge Auchan, new renovation, giant wood ceiling structure inside, beautiful, v pleasant lighting, and because it is so big, they have this promotion offers, if you buy 2 packs of Lindt choco balls, you get to make a lucky draw - the prize is a really pretty cute, customised Lindt choco bicycle!! Aiya, i almost bought some just to enter the contest! But i didnt. The promoter all the same gave out choco balls to every one who stopped and looked. You dont see this at the other Auchan, which is already quite big. The big, the huge, the monsters win.
But after this visit, we decided to go to this new Auchan now, since its got everything
Macquereau is v gd, and crabs and shrimps...one of the vendor behind is Asian, a handsome yg man tall and smart, he said, ok, crab, 3, ok, female, yes, he chose 3 fat female crabs for me, and? fish? yes, macquereau and sardines are also fresh and gd, so some sardines, 16 sardines please, and ... shrimps, he asked? No server has ever asked like this in any of the Auchans / supermarkets previously, but this one, i think he knew what Asians like to eat, he has put together a seafood menu for you !!
haha, of course, i bought 500grams just to please his efforts. It was all v gd.
We have forgotten about the seafood section for a while;
I remembered this because, we were at a small town and the hotel had a kitchen in our room! so, its a seaside town, we went to the supermarket, and the stingrays were on sale, too good!
Got butter and garlic, quick sear, one side and then the other. OMG, we over looked our fish section for so long!!!
So we started to eat more fish now.
Best seafood months are the ones w "bre" - this means, sept, oct, nov, dec
after that, seafood is not so sumptuous anymore
Toronto should have gd lobsters... too bad, cant travel, well just saw yesterday online that Canada might replace the quarantine measure with some health test something, if thats the case, things would ease up, economy will go up.
