Sorry to break format, but just thinking about Montreal Restaurants has made me hungry enough to run out to eat. for Quebecois fare (especially the brunch) check out Les Filles du Roi in Old Montreal for an all-in-one artery bursting experience. > >-- >Brady Reed [email removed] The preceding comments do not necessarily reflect the opinions of anyone (including the author).
Montreal, Canada
Top 5 Montreal/QuebecC restaurants?
La Maree (in old Montreal - 404 Pl. Jacques-Cartier). Excellent continental French cuisine & seafood. Chez La Mere Michel - 1209 Guy. Bocca D'Oro - 1448 St-Mathieu. Classic Italian food. Dunn's - 892 Ste-Catherine. BREAKFAST
One of the finest restaurants I've ever eaten at is Chez la MereMichel, 1209 rue Guy. Magnifique!

You lived in Montreal and never tried poutine??!?!?! It's the national greasy fast food of Quebec. I don't know about "Smoked-Meat Pizzaghetti" - it sounds pretty good to me. Lots of places around Montreal serve smoked meat spaghetti, which is exactly what it sounds like: a big plate of spaghetti covered with a tomato-meat sauce with about a pound of chopped smoked meat plopped on top. It's heavenly. >BTW, I'd add Moishe's steak house to any carnivore's list of >Montreal spots. I'd recommend Magnan. They serve excellent roast beef. You used to order the size you wanted by number. The biggest piece of beef was about the size of a person's head. Fabulous. I hope I got that spelling right. /Phil
: Les Halles (on Mountain, Crescent or Bishop, not sure) was always an : excellent meal. Not sure if it's still around. Yeah it's still around, on Crescent I think. It gets my vote. Try Basha's on Ste Catherine for a good fast inexpensive cafeteria style lunch (or dinner)... it's on the south side, on a corner, on a second floor, above a sports store... vicinity Peel. You might want a quick meal so as not to waste a MOMENT away from the great shops in that area! Have fun. Andrea
Forget the Beaver Club. Forget L'Actuel. Forget Le Vent Vert. Go straight to Schwartz's.

The Teriaki steak en-brochette at Moishe's up St. Laurent (I think most of these things are still there.) Time for a junk-food junket again, I guess.
