Enjoy smoked meat sandwiches and style bagels in Montreal

Culinary mecca, visitors to Montreal can look forward to a huge variety of food options, from diners and fast food to low-cost ethnic restaurants to haute cuisine. Recently ranked 2nd best dining city in North America after San Francisco and ahead of New York, Montreal cuisine has been contributed by large local Jewish population in local specialties including huge smoked meat sandwiches (beef brisket) and small, crusty bagels. Other specialties are "all-dressed" pizza (pepperoni, mushrooms and green peppers), pizza and spaghetti with smoked meat, and Quebecois favorites like split pea soup.

One can also see Montreal's culinary landscape influenced by the multinational fabric of its allophone communities. Italian, Greek, Portuguese and Jewish communities have contributed to the making up of Montreal's delicatessens and other restaurants. When you are in Montreal relish Montreal-style smoked meat sandwiches and Montreal style bagels. Also dig on Lebanese falafels and Japanese. You can dine in Montreal restaurants like Dagwoods, Dic Ann's Hamburgers, Dunn's Famous and Lafleur Restaurants.
