  1. You don't need to reload the game to refresh merchants stores. You can just create a LAN game, or head to specific locations, as I mentionned in this post :

  2. Speaking about large portions: Having a business meeting with people you never met before is a fight between etiquette and not starving. My 192cm and 90kg have to be kept alive. Not easy for example if your business partner is a French lady with half the weight. It is easier if you were in town for a day already and could eat in advance. But if you drove to the meeting for 6 hours with the car and are hungry? I now understand how noble people felt at a dinner with the emperor. The emperor was served first and the low nobles were not allowed to continue eating when the king was done. The low nobles were sitting at the end (Spitz) of the table (Tafel), served last and most often left the table hungry. They had to visit a nearby restaurant to be satiated. Their preferred meal there became known as Tafelspitz. The good thing is that most garcons know this story and know why I order a Tafelspitz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tafelspitz

  3. You're riight, soooooooooo heavy. There's a huge epidemic of obesity in North America. Montreal less so because I guess of huge migration from french areas... I remember a member once visiting MTL and he just blurted out in a post " Everone in MTL is SO SKINNYY!!" gogo

  4. I've noticed that portions in Canadian restaurants are rather large. I didn't visit, but I've relatives who're sending pics. Like 400-500gr meat and 400-500 gr fries on a plate with like 2 smallest tomatoes ever (called salad instead of garnish lol). Very good for a sportsman, but for a "regular joe" seems rather heavy, no?
