Quick answer: Ahuntsic, Saint-Laurent and Saint-Léonard sit north of the island core, close enough to Pierina’s MAPAQ kitchen at 3954 Bd Leman, Laval (H7E 1A1) for homemade weeknight meals. Order the weekly menu by Wednesday 11:59 p.m. America/Montreal for Sunday pickup in Laval or delivery within about 50 km — Sunday if you choose it, or Wednesday 3:00–7:00 p.m. After 1 October 2026, the permanent menu fills gaps without that Wednesday lock. This is one guide for three neighbouring boroughs, not three separate city pages.
Why these three boroughs share one kitchen clock
Ahuntsic–Cartierville, Saint-Laurent and Saint-Léonard are different on a map — brick triplexes near the Rivière des Prairies, industrial parks near the airport, duplex streets near Jean-Talon — but they share the same weeknight problem. Parents get home late, métro transfers eat the evening, and “something quick” often means another delivery app fee for food that was not cooked for your table.
Pierina – Plats Maison is not a restaurant with a dining room. It is a Laval kitchen that cooks homemade mains, 900 ml soups and bowls, then hands them off on a schedule you can plan around. From Ahuntsic or Saint-Léonard, Laval is a short drive across the river or along the 15. From Saint-Laurent, Boulevard Leman is often faster than fighting parking downtown. That proximity is why delivery and Sunday pickup both make sense here — as long as your pin sits inside the roughly 50 km circle around the kitchen.
Weekly menu vs permanent menu on a Tuesday in Montréal-Nord
Two menus, one stove. The weekly list changes every Sunday cook day. You order by Wednesday night, choose Individual or Family (serves 4) on most mains, add 900 ml soups in millilitres and mains in grams — never kilograms — then pick up Sunday 4:00–7:00 p.m. only at the kitchen, or take delivery on Sunday or Wednesday 3:00–7:00 p.m. There is no Wednesday pickup and no subscription.
The permanent menu, open from 1 October 2026, is the year-round list on Our Menu. Order any day when you want a known plate without waiting for next Sunday’s rotation. Many households in Villeray-adjacent Ahuntsic blocks combine both: weekly for the Sunday drop that feeds Monday through Thursday, permanent for the Friday you forgot to lock the cart.

| Need | Path | Clock |
|---|---|---|
| This Sunday’s rotating list | Weekly menu | Order by Wed 11:59 p.m.; pickup Sun 4:00–7:00 p.m. only; delivery Sun or Wed 3:00–7:00 p.m. |
| A standing favourite mid-week | Permanent menu | Any day after 1 Oct 2026; no weekly Wednesday lock |
| Office lunch or a table of ten | Drop-off catering | Quoted appointment; Mon–Fri 10:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. office hours are not the food window |
Delivery pins: Ahuntsic, Saint-Laurent, Saint-Léonard and Montréal-Nord
“We deliver to Montreal” is too vague for SEO and for your checkout. Pierina delivers within about 50 km of 3954 Bd Leman. That includes Ahuntsic–Cartierville, Saint-Laurent, Saint-Léonard and Montréal-Nord, alongside Laval sectors, the West Island, the North Shore and the South Shore listed on the meal delivery zones guide.
Confirm your address at checkout. A pin on the edge of the circle — say, a long cul-de-sac in Bois-de-Boulogne — may still qualify while a closer street does not if the driving distance exceeds the radius. When delivery is awkward, Sunday pickup in Laval is the fallback: same containers, same cook day, you choose the 4:00–7:00 p.m. window.
Portions that match real apartments
Individual mains suit one adult or a light eater. Family format serves four — not a catering hotel pan. Soups are 900 ml pots, labelled in millilitres. Bowls are single portions. If you are feeding teenagers or hosting cousins from Saint-Michel for Sunday pasta, scale up with two Family lines or move to a catering quote when the table outgrows four plates.
Reheat like food from a home kitchen: gentle oven or stovetop, lid on soups, not a microwave race unless you are truly out of time. The food is cooked in Laval for eating this week, not for a freezer project three months out.
When the table is bigger than dinner
Saint-Laurent offices near Technoparc sometimes need trays, not single bowls. Family gatherings in Ahuntsic basements need drop-off pasta and salad, not a 150-person wedding hall crew. Pierina’s corporate catering path is drop-off from the same MAPAQ line — dated delivery or pickup by appointment. We do not run banquet service on your floor and we do not send a pizza peel. Italian homemade here means Campania-style Sunday food from a family table, which you can read about on About us — parents from Campania, Warren on the Laval line, no invented chef surname.
A simple weeknight plan
- Wednesday before 11:59 p.m.: open the weekly menu, pick two mains (Individual or Family) and one 900 ml soup.
- Choose Sunday delivery or Wednesday 3:00–7:00 p.m. delivery — not Wednesday pickup.
- Mid-week gap? After 1 October, add a permanent favourite from Our Menu.
- Friday office lunch? Request catering quote with headcount and drop-off time.
FAQ: prepared meals Ahuntsic and Saint-Laurent
Is this three separate neighbourhood menus?
No. One Laval kitchen, one weekly list, one permanent list. This article groups three boroughs because they share distance and weeknight habits — not because each has its own SKU list.
Can I pick up on Wednesday after work in Saint-Léonard?
No. Weekly pickup is Sunday 4:00–7:00 p.m. only at 3954 Bd Leman. Wednesday is delivery 3:00–7:00 p.m., not a pickup window.
Does the permanent menu replace the weekly menu?
No. They overlap on the same stove. Weekly rotates and locks Wednesday night; permanent is year-round without that lock from 1 October 2026.
Do you deliver to Montréal-Nord?
Often yes, within the ~50 km radius from Laval. Confirm at checkout using the delivery zones guide linked above.
Good food brings people together. If your weeknights run through Ahuntsic, Saint-Laurent or Saint-Léonard, plan the Wednesday lock or bookmark the permanent list — and let the Laval kitchen cook before you get home.
