THE BEST PLACES TO EAT IN MONTREAL

As an exchange student in Canada, I always wanted to visit Montreal. I found the perfect opportunity to go there. I went there for the second time (if we count my arrival on Ottawa by the airport of Montreal) during the reading week of October 2022.

I stayed there for a few days. The weather was good, it was the end of the Indian spring season. Being a fan of the local cuisine and culture, I present you my top 4 restaurants that I loved :

THE ESSENTIAL : SCHWARTZ' DELI

Knowing pretty well the Schwartz restaurants in Paris, I always wanted to go to the one in Montreal (maybe the main reason of my stay there haha...).

There, you can either take away (the quickest way; next to the main restaurant), or on the spot in the mythical restaurant.

Of course, not wanting to do things by halves, I ate on the counter the famous smoked meat sandwich with a plate of fries and a black cherry soda. I didn't have to wait in line very long to get in and the service was very fast!

It was worth it!

Adress : 3895 Boul. Saint-Laurent, Montréal, QC H2W 1X9

THE BAGELS

When you think of Montreal, you think of smoked meat and bagels!

During my trip to Montreal, I had to eat real bagels! So, I went to the St-Viateur bakery to buy some bagels to taste them :)

After a few minutes of waiting in line and seeing people with bags full of bagels, I was finally able to buy some. I kept it simple : one with poppy seeds and one with onions (to remind me of the Pretzels my family and I buy in the Marais district in Paris).

And I loved it! They were so good, I recommend!

Adress : 263 Rue Saint- Viateur O, Montréal, QC H2V 1Y1

TIME TO RELAX AT A COFFEE SHOP

After a long walk, what could be better than a good coffee in the Old Montreal?

A friend of mine recommended Tommy Café for brunch. Wanting to try as many restaurants in Montreal as possible, I just stopped there for a hot chocolate while I was working on my classes.

And I was not disappointed! It's a pretty, simple and nice place where many people meet to exchange a coffee or to work.

Address : British empire building, 200 Notre-Dame St W, Montreal, Quebec H2Y 1T3

A LITTLE HUNGRY ?

I think it's one of the best known pastry chains in Canada : BeaverTails.

I hadn't tried it yet in Ottawa, I was a little hungry, I went by the store and you know what happens next !

I tasted the Brwownie and frankly, it was not bad at all! The pastry is quite big and fills the belly well. Can't wait to try the one at Reese's...

Address: 136 Rue Saint-Paul E, Montreal, QC H2Y 1G6136 Rue Saint-Paul E, Montreal, QC H2Y 1G6
