Does anyone actually think In-n-Out is better than Shake Shack? I'd hope not.
 
That is the best poutine spot in MTL :pimp:

Did you hit Schwartz?

Yessir, I got the fatty smoked meat from Schwartz's. It was delicious. I'll have to agree and say I liked it more than Katz's. It's not as salty, and not as expensive. The sandwiches are a bit smaller, but well worth the $9.75 Canadian. I also got bagels from Fairmont. I might rustle some jimmies in here, but I also prefer the Montreal style bagels. A little crispier, a little sweeter, and not as dense as NY bagels.

I also prefer Montreal's bagels. Fairmont was great. That honey in the water does the trick.
 
Fairmont is good but I like St. Viateur the best. And yes, Montreal bagels are the best bagels in the world. Another great thing about MTL is the 18 drinking age. Went there for our high school grad trip, all we did was snowboard, eat and party :hat

I'll have to try St. Viateur if I ever make it back. I also liked the roast chicken at Romados. The sauce/chili oil that they brushed on it was so good. We also ate at Boustan, a lebanese restaurant. The shawarma combo was so much food for less than $12. And the potatoes with the garlic sauce were crack! My friends and I didn't check out much of the nightlife, since we just wanted to chill and drink at the place we were staying. I guess I'll plan another trip in the future.
