Montreal Food Scene
Bagels, smoked meat and a fearless dining scene make Montréal one of the great food cities.
The rivalries are legendary: wood-fired Montréal bagels versus the rest of the world, and towering smoked-meat sandwiches piled high on rye.
Beyond the classics, a new generation of chefs has made the city a destination for adventurous, market-driven cooking.
