Mange-tout.

Sweet:

If you don't go to Schwartz's for smoked meat, don't show your face on this blog ever again.

Also:
French. steaks, fries, salad, soup for 16 canadian dollars: L'Entrecote St. Jean at 2022 Peel (corner Maisonneuve)
French. A little pricier perhaps, but a great restaurant: L'Express on St. Denis (corner Duluth)
Italian: great place, cozy, always packed: Eduardo's: Duluth, just east of St. Denis
Japanese: cheap sushi, pretty good: Isakaya: 3469 Parc, around Milton
Burgers: Best in town. La Paryse: 302 Ontario, corner St. Denis
Burgers+Frites: tiny shack, great cheap food. Patati Patata: 4177 St. Laurent, corner Rachel.
Chinese: My favorite Chinese restaurant in the world. 1077 Clark in Chinatown, down from Rene-Levesque.
Breakfast (as mentioned): Place Milton: Milton, close to Jeanne-Mance.

Have a great weekend!

Great line up for Montreal.

That's the wonderful thing about vacations, right? You condense all these things into a few short days, which would never otherwise be condensed into a single day out of fear for your health. I picture a sample day -- breakfast at Place Milton (which might require a good amount of walking-off), late lunch at Schwartz's (which might require the cigarette, alcohol, and more of that walking that was mentioned), and dinner at um, any of those places -- and with any luck you'll end up under the knife of an experienced triple-bypass surgeon back home. What a town!

But when humans hibernate, quite literally, for 8 months a year like they do in Montreal, you need some hearty food to get through the cold dark months. And Montreal has no shortage hibernation fare.
