Bouillon Bilk for french food. Restaurant Gus for good casual food with huge portions. Patisserie Rhubarbe for dessert (one of the best in the city). Just some top favorites. There's so many...
Schwartz's at 2:46. This is a hotly debated topic among lovers of Montreal smoked meat. Who in Montreal has the best smoked meat sandwich? Schwartz's was considered by many to be number one, but others will say Abe's, Deli on Main, or Ben's. Of course you need a Cott's black cherry cola to go with it along with kosher dill pickles.
In my very humble opinion, best poutine in Mtl is the one from Gibeau Orange Julep. The building is actually a big orange 😂. I like it because they put some orange juice in the sauce which make the poutine slighty sweeter. Some people dislikes, but to me it’s the best.
Yes...after a meal like that it always feels as though you never want to eat again. But then, just after a few hours you're looking for food again. Humans.
la banquise has pretty consistent line ups every day till 4am, and yes even in winter. if i could suggest a better time to visit, it would be any time around the grand prix(june) till early fall has the city undergoes a crazy transformation with a vast amount of festivals every week from the grand prix itself, the francos, jazz fest, osheaga, ilesoniq, fantasia, just for laughs fore a total of 34 festivals from june to august plus the fireworks world competition every week at la Ronde.
Finaly, for restaurant recommendation: L'auberge du Dragon Rouge on Lajeunesse street. It's a medieval themed restaurant. The food is amazing! If you like live entertainment, go during the evenings, there is a surcharge for it. If you prefer to eat in peace with your friends go during lunch time.
Scwartz is good but it is slightly overrated. The Main right across the street has some smoked meat that's just as good, if not better, and other places, like Dunn's, make good smokedmeat too. I would avoid Lester's smoked meat. Marché Jean-Talon is great! Glad you went there and glad you liked it. About the bagels, I live 45-60 mins away from both places and I still go there if I want bagels. They are that good. So walking a few hours for some bagels is not a stretch. Personnaly, I prefer the fairmount ones a little more. Not sure why. Also, that shop is open 24/7. I've been there at 3 in the morning more than once. The ''french'' way is how we say poutine. The other way you were saying it just had a stronger québécois accent. I would avoid saying it like at 17:33 because it sounds very close to ''putain'', which is the french word for whore 😂 Across La Banquise, there's a place called Ma Poule Mouillé. It's a portuguese chicken place that has a great poutine. And yes, La Banquise is 100% a place where you go after a night of clubbing. Nothing like greasy fries to combat a hangover. It's gets crowder at around 3 am.
Yeah, I could imagine developing a more specific taste after having those bagels a few more times! Thanks for the clarification about poutine. Now I do remember from the few French lessons I got that pronouncing it that way would sound uncomfortably similar to that😂. I tend to say pou-teen much easier anyway.
Cott drinks is from my hometown of Laval, Quebec. They are indeed wonderful including the many flavours other than black cherry. I've seen it in Ottawa but not everywhere. Don't know about Toronto.
I like to have a beer, rather than cheery Coke, . again that is my personal choice. Whenever someone goes to Montreal, I would ask them to bring me back some Montreal Smoke Meat. OH, what happens to Shopsy at Spadina in Toronto, the good ole Kensington? I used to go there when I want some fix.
I could imagine beer working well with that too! I've not been there actually! Seems it's temporarily closed and will open in the summer, so around this time.
You can get Cott's Cherry Cola at Dollarama of all places, but the real fountain made cherry cola is served at Wilensky's Light Lunch which is several blocks up from Schwartz which in itself is another Montreal landmark with their Wilensky's Special.
As you saw and mentioned, there are two Saint Viateur bagel shops just a block away from each other. Reason being is that the smaller one was made to help with the high demand of the bigger one. Many times throughout the day a worker is seen hauling bagels in a fancy type of a covered wheel barrel bringing bagels over. And yes, even in winter…lol.. of course the smaller location also sells to the public.
Interesting! That makes sense. Having multiple outlets distributed really helps with promotion. Although I may not want to buy the first time I see the store, I come across it again after a few minutes and am finally convinced! :)
@@bsharporbflat8378 And one in the West Island but these two locations do not have wood burning ovens as the law has now changed and the only reason the original St. Viateur bagel still is permitted to have a wood-burning oven is because it’s grandfathered in.
It’s funny to see my whole life in this video. I live in this district. You filmed my street and my office building. You visited restaurant where I use to order. You walked in parks where I spend hours every day 😄 My advice: next time you go to fairmount bagel and the weather is hot, have a stop at kem koba: best ice cream of montreal!
That's so cool, I never thought of that! Yeah I can imagine it feeling a bit strange to see your daily life in a video :) You live in a beautiful city! And thanks for the recommendation!
For the Bagels, since you got some really good ones from Fairmount and St-Viateur, you didn't need to heat them. They are best served as is. 😄 If you come back to Montreal, give them another chance.
Schwartz is visited mostly by out-of-townwers. You pronounce « pouteen ». Laval street is probably the most charming old street in Montreal but you needed to visit near Square Saint-Louis to really appreciate it. In fact that square is mythical. Your french pronounciation is excellent.
Great video series.....maybe can you do one for going to Vancouver....it's an expensive city....plus great seafood....!!!my wife and I really enjoy your video from going the Niagara falls to this Montreal series.....
Thank you for the suggestion! I haven't been to Vancouver yet I must admit, but would love doing a video on that one day. Coming up is a video about the city of Kingston!
Since Ive watched the whole series: 1. I dont really go to markets for regular shopping, but I will go for fun or to get the really seasonal produce 2. Ive never been to Schwartz, my family's smoked meat restaurant is Lesters in Outremont! Just as charming as Schwartz from the look of it, lots of memorabilia and no wait times 3. Fairmount and Saint Viateur are almost the same, my family likes Fairmount better but push come to shove, they taste almost the same and the only difference I noticed is that Saint Viateur bagels are skinnier! Ive also never had the flavoured bagels at either cause they looks so bready and stale! Poppy or sesame for the win, especially when theyre hot! You should try getting a hot dozen from either and a container of cream cheese, then walk over to the monument on a Sunday for Tam tams! (its a weekly drum circle thing on Sundays with vendors etc that goes all summer and into when there is snow)
The way you pronounce poutine is right on point. Montrealers tend to lower the i, that is true, but the dish is from Centre-du-Québec where it is pronounced same as you did.
After spending 3 days in Montreal, I found the food (cheap eats as well as more pricey options) to be very delicious! If you're from Montreal, what restaurants (also snack and dessert places) would you recommend to tourists that are perhaps less well-known and underrated?
Montreal ,after New York ,as the higher number of restaurants per capita in North america .... so many choices ... i prefer small restaurants and amazing creative chefs where you can bring your wine ... Le Cath Cart , Place Ville Marie is a good place for drinks , food and deserts .....
Thank you for your helpful and educational videos. I was wondering where is a good place to convert US dollar to Canadian because I will be visiting Montreal next week.
Funny you started your trip from about 2 blocs from where I live ;) I have never heard poutine spoken any other way than poo-thin-e (frech E). I have not been to Schwartz in years! I should go soon. Way say it the non-german way: Shwar-TS. I have been there 2 or 3 times. Really good food but always a long line (which is great for them, less so for us ;) and while the food was good, the servers where quite short with us being almost overwhelmed by the number of people to serve, I don't hold it against them but it did not make for a great experience. Cott's black cherry coke is really hard to find here too. Only a few stores sells it and as far as restaurants, I am pretty sure only Schwartz has it. I am diabetic so I can't drink it anymore but yes it's pretty great in moderation.
Forgot to say it in my other comment but next time you are in Montreal, you have to try spruce beer. It's a soda that taste like a pine. Not everyone likes it but those that do REALLY do. Colt, the same brand from the cherry coke, makes some. Otherwise, there's one called Marco and that one is really good imo. It tastes really strong.
haha can’t believe i found another spruce beer drinker! among everyone i know, i’m the only person who likes spruce beer. i would say 99% of people won’t like that.
OK subscribed :) after watching a few of your vids, and the consistency; great communication and story telling :) ... fantastic job ! Your content about Canada is so good it should kill it with bill C-11 haha ;)
A yes forgot about La Banquise. Only been there once and was really underwhelmed after hearing about it for years. Like Schwartz there is always a line up. I think poutine is really easy to make and it can be good most places. Only bad poutine I have ever eaten was at Valentine, that was atrocious just like the hot dogs were terrible. How you can make bad poutine and hot dogs is beyond me! Since my favorite poutine is the italian one (meat spaghetti sauce instead of gravy), most restaurant serves it and it's always good.
For the pronunciation of poutine: Pou-TSIN, rhyming with tin, not nasalized. Pou-TEEN is acceptable, but not the typical anglo-canadian POO-teen. As far as bagels are concerned, they really need to be kept in airtight bags, ideally frozen, otherwise they go stale overnight. The paper bags they come in just don't cut it.

I don’t know why so much hype over Schwartz’s pastrami sandwich which I am not a fan of because it’s quite salty and the bread they use is not even toasted or anything . I really don’t get it
You're saying poutine correctly. The pronunciation in English is quite similar to the original French pronunciation. Now, when you say "putin", it sounds like you're saying the French word for hooker. 😁
Bouillon Bilk for french food. Restaurant Gus for good casual food with huge portions. Patisserie Rhubarbe for dessert (one of the best in the city). Just some top favorites. There's so many...
Thanks so much for the suggestions! Will check those out when I get a chance to visit again!
+1 for Bouillon Bilk. One of my favorite tables in Montreal. It’s not a cheap place though, it’s fine French cuisine and the prices comes with it.
yes Bouillon Bilk is amazing.

la banquise has pretty consistent line ups every day till 4am, and yes even in winter. if i could suggest a better time to visit, it would be any time around the grand prix(june) till early fall has the city undergoes a crazy transformation with a vast amount of festivals every week from the grand prix itself, the francos, jazz fest, osheaga, ilesoniq, fantasia, just for laughs fore a total of 34 festivals from june to august plus the fireworks world competition every week at la Ronde.
Finaly, for restaurant recommendation: L'auberge du Dragon Rouge on Lajeunesse street. It's a medieval themed restaurant. The food is amazing! If you like live entertainment, go during the evenings, there is a surcharge for it. If you prefer to eat in peace with your friends go during lunch time.
Just the name itself sounds so appealing, thanks for the tip!

I've never seen it here, but will be looking out for it!
The best cherry sodas is from Dr. Browns. It’s hard to find in Toronto but I know for sure that Zeldens Deli at Yonge and St. Clair has it!

Schwartz’s really is amazing. Their smoked meat is so good that they are shipping it worldwide.
I loved it!
Best smoked meat in Montreal is at Lester’s deli on Bernard street.

your pronouncing poutine correctly we say it the same way in English
It's Cott Black Cherry, not Cherry Coke
The southern part of avenue Laval is much better
Yep , specially the square St Louis ! A beautiful a square surrounding Victorian houses
I don’t know why so much hype over Schwartz’s pastrami sandwich which I am not a fan of because it’s quite salty and the bread they use is not even toasted or anything . I really don’t get it
Perhaps because people haven't tried other options yet!
It is not pastrami like in New York... different spices and all that and the bread is not supposed to be toasted. Of course, you like it or you don't.
ride a bycicle is more effective and faster and you can bring it in the bus and metro
No, no no..lol.. poutine is pronounced very similar in French and English. Nowhere near the word ‘Putin’. Some anglos will say pou-teen.
