Brie de Meaux and Brie du Melun are heavenly. I highly recommend both.
Also try Manchego (spanish sheep's milk cheese) and there's a 5 year old cave aged Gruyere that I've seen recently that is also awesome.
The best thing to do is find a local fromagerie, and listen to them.
I live in Calgary and the East side is the "bad" side, although it's really not that bad compared to even the not so nice areas of Mtl and Toronto...
I remember thinking about this a while ago, and one theory we came up with was that when the cities were smaller, the industrial areas were in the middle of what is now the city. With the prevailing winds being Westerly, all the crap would blow towards the eastern areas of town, making them less desireable to live in.
And whoever was talking about NDG being a rough area of Montreal must be talking pre 1980, because I went to high school there, and it was a pretty affluent neighbourhood.

In "Comics 101."
thanks, jevonus. I don't really read comics much anymore, but it was a fun trip down memory lane with the Crisis and Secret Wars recaps.
