"I read that Guillaume bakery, a favourite in the city known for its buttery croissants, cheddar and fig baguettes, and dark chocolate sourdough loaves, suffered damage in a fire early yesterday morning; no one was injured. The blaze, first reported by Journal Métro, originated in the bakery’s ventilation system before spreading and damaging the kitchen and oven, which are no longer functional, and a call was placed to the fire department at around 6:15 a.m. Owner and founder Guillaume Vaillant confirmed on the bakery’s Instagram that the Saint-Laurent shop between Fairmount and Laurier East will be closed for an indefinite period — “closed until at least next Tuesday — if not longer” — depending on the availability of parts and construction workers, though he also shared that the bakery is undergoing an unspecified expansion." - Valerie Silva
