Visiting Montreal? There are some foods that you absolutely have to try during your time in the city.

Reddit user u/NotASouthpaww said he was visiting from Toronto and wanted to make sure he’d try all the great alternatives to the obvious restaurants like Schwartz’s, Fairmount Bagel, and La Banquise.
Since Montreal and its food scene are quite polarizing, a lengthy 142-comment debate broke out, trying to help the tourist shorten his must-try list. Popular alternative spots included Reuben’s Deli, Ma Poule Mouillée, Chez Claudette, and Imadake.
