The state of your tires is one of the things that might save your life in a quick stop situation. Make sure the ones you have are good enough.

Talon Tire is an independent tire dealer which has been in business since 1971, and specialize in quality tires for passenger cars, SUV’s, vans and light trucks. It is one of the few tire shops that has been approved by the consumer watchdog organization, the Automobile Protection Association.

They are not just order takers – their staff has knowledge of a wide range of tire applications, and monitors the latest technological developments and trends in tire manufacturing. They can answer and questions about tires to help you make the right choice.

Some of the good reasons to buy your tires from them:

– Wheels are fastened on your car by first hand-threading the nuts and then hand-torquing them to manufacturer’s specifications. When needed, you will be able to remove the wheels without frustration – No warped brake rotors or stripped threads or marred wheels.

– Even if they install only one tire, they check and adjust all your tire pressures.

– Their repairs on flats are permanent and safe, since they use only quality chemical patches applied from the inside of the tire. Repairs done from the outside, without inspecting for internal damage, are only temporary, and can result in an eventual blowout.

– Their tire and wheel balancing is state-of-the-art. It’s so uniquely accurate that consumers residing several hundred kilometers away go there to resolve their vibration complaints and leave with a smooth comfortable ride.

– Your “Mag” wheels are safe with them, as they use only the highest quality nylon-coated balancing weights. They won’t change the plastic finish of your wheels or cause corrosion like regular lead weights.

Special tires can be bought here too. Talon Tire sponsors and supports grass roots Motorsports in Canada, and offer a wide range of competition tires. To help keep a cherished classic car on the road they stock over 20 sizes of hard-to-find vintage tires.

– There is no commission, so their staff won’t propose a more profitable tire when it’s not the right choice.
– There are no hidden extras in their price.
– Their road hazard guarantee provides a replacement tire based on the price you paid, and NOT on a higher suggested retail price which increases every year with inflation.

They offer a two month or 1,500 mile / 2,000 kilometer free trial period for every tire that they recommend for your car and driving needs. If you don’t like them, they’ll refund you 100% of the purchase price.

Talon Tire makes buying the right set of tires easy.

I have been swooning over the understatedly named, Fruitcake. Imagine a Strawberry Shortcake made with an assortment of fresh fruit. It is light, whipped creamy, and not overly sweet. A perfect summer-y end to a summer-y meal.

It is created by Les Delices La Frenaie, which was originally located only in the east end of the city. Everyone got lucky when they moved into Laval and the West Island. In the west, they are in the same outdoor mall as Mobilia, Deserres and the Lindt chocolate outlet store.

If some of the cakes at Les Delices La Frenaie look suspiciously similar to those in Loblaw’s, Chenoys and your favorite coffee cafe, you would be a good detective.

So go to the source for the cakes: Chocolate Praline Explosion, Apple Caramel Cheesecake, Brownie Cheesecake, Frutti di Bosco, Dulce de Leche, Limoncello, Death by Chocolate and Milky Way, to only name a few. There are over 70 varieties of cakes and cheesecakes always available in 8 inch (8 – 10 guests) or 10 inch sizes which can serve a maximum of 20 people. For more than 20 people, they can be ordered 36 hours in advance.

The best deals are the apple walnut, lemon, chocolate espresso, marble, walnut cinnamon etc…pound cakes that range from $9.19 and $11.50. Traditional Italian biscottis and cookies are available in wide varieties.

Trays of pizza (tomato, white, ricotta, tomato olive, vegetarian, potato onion, spinach, rapini sausage, all dressed, fiesta, pepperoni cheese, and tomato cheese) can be ordered during the week and on Saturdays they are all available without ordering.

Locations: 8405  Lafrenaie at Jarry (514-324-8039; Rosemere, 199F Cure-Labelle (450-430-4222), 58A boul. Brunswick (514-542-4242), Brossard, 8245 Boul. Taschereau, QC J4Y 1A4 (450-462-4000)
