"On St-Laurent between Bernard and St-Viateur, Pastel Rita is a Mile End café run by Gabriel Malenfant and Véronique Orban that leans fully into the neighbourhood: it serves viennoiseries from nearby bakery Guillaume, light meals from Soupesoup and third-wave coffee. The owners plan to add evening service with oysters, other seafood and natural wines once they secure the appropriate permits." - Tim Forster
