Yeah, smoked meat and bagels are very much Montreal specialties. There's also the infamous poutine, though it's usually better outside of Montreal, in my opinion - rural Quebec does poutine much better than the big city. There's nothing quite like having a poutine after a night out drinking. My recovery time from such events has dramatically increased now that I'm over 40, though.

Poutine is insanely good. I never knew about it until I toured through Canada a few years back. I was there for two months and I think I ate Poutine pretty much every day! Thank you my Canadian friends!

The key is to use cheese curds (the kind that goes "squeak" under your teeth), so some of it will retain just a bit of chunkiness as it melts. Shredded cheese poutine is a travesty! :laugh:
