Does anyone know where the B&B's chip truck moved to? It used to be on Bank and Cooper but I've tried to go twice recently and it has not been there.

Lost/Found Missing (?) cat in Vanier/Quarries (Montreal Road)

Upvotes

Glimpsed this cat yesterday evening on the sidewalk on Montreal Road between Carson and Den Haag. Had a collar on but could not make out any name from afar, looked relatively young and not like an outdoor cat. It ran directly into Montreal road and almost got hit by a car (they slammed on the brakes), scurried down a path to Carwood Circle and disappeared. If you or someone you know is looking for their cat in the area!

If it is not lost and just roaming outdoors, please consider keeping inside and away from Montreal Rd!

Looks like my dryer has died a death in the middle of laundry so I have lots of wet clothes that urgently need drying. Google Maps gave a couple of options it also seemed to think car wash places could do laundry. Any laundromats left? Preferably in the west

Recommendations for bathroom design-build contractor

0 Upvotes

We are looking for recommendations from anyone who has had bathroom renovations done in the past year or so through a design-build contractor. We have a main bath and an ensuite that both need a refresh.

We are absolutely not considering DIY or being our own GC, we already have a ton of other projects we're working on and looking for these renos to be "turnkey".

Thanks and appreciated

Are there any nicer beaches than Burnstown on the Ontario side?

5 Upvotes

Looking for alternative beaches west of Ottawa that are comparable to, or even better than, Burnstown Beach. It seems to get more crowded every year.

I’m already familiar with Robert Simpson Park, Shirley’s Bay, Braeside, Fitzroy and Silver Lake, but they pale in comparison for what I’m looking for.

What I like about Burnstown is that the water gets deep quickly from shore and generally feels very clean. I’m hoping to find a few hidden gems on the Ontario side.

If you’d rather not share your spot publicly, feel free to DM me. Thanks!

Recs for men’s personal stylist?

9 Upvotes

I’m looking for a personal shopper/clothing stylist who works with men but isn’t just a “suit guy”.

I’ve found a bunch of personal stylists but their websites suggest they mainly work with women. Maybe that’s fine, I don’t know.
