Great Eats In the Great North – Part 4 – Eating Like The Montrealers

After our fantastic tour of Old Montreal, and walking all over the beautiful city, it was time to stop and enjoy some of the famous foods of Montreal. We stopped and ate at one of the many outside cafes. Between the four of us, we did our best to enjoy the four most famous foods of Montreal – poutine, maple syrup, smoked meat and bagels (though we tried the bagels later on).

Larry had the poutine with smoked meat.

I had a pizza, with smoked sausage.

And Maureen and Milos spilt a club sandwich, with gravy on the side for the fries. That’s another Canadian thing, like mayonnaise for fries.

We even had a couple of little visitors who offered to help with our scraps.

After lunch, we strolled around some more, and went into the shops. We did get to try the famous Montreal maple syrup too. It is very good.

And yes, we did get our bagels too. We were on a mission to find one of the famous bagel shops Stephanie had recommended, and we finally found one of them – Fairmount Bagels.

All they offer is a variety of bagels and spreads. Stephanie recommended we ask for whatever bagels were fresh out of the oven.

We loaded up with fresh bagels and enjoyed them back in our hotel, with another fun fame night. The bagels were our dinner that night. The bagels of Montreal are good, but we all decided we prefer the New York bagels. I guess it is all what you are used to.

Restez a l’ecoute. J’en aurai beaucoup plus a vous proposer bientot. Stay tuned. I have a lot more coming your way soon.

Passez une bonne journee et faites en sorte que chaque jour soit formidable. Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
