DAY 3 MONTREAL

Day 3:

THIS IS THE DAY WE ATE THE MOST. Tried all the most popular food in Montreal!

Started off with brunch at L'Avenue! A few friends recommended me this place and already warned that the queue is usually long. True enough, we queued for quite awhile in the cold but it was worth it. MOST AWESOME MEAL IN MONTREAL. The eggs benny with chorizo sausages were so good, definitely a must try. The banana and nutella pancakes were super fluffy and good too! The caramel and rum syrup went very well with it. I'm already craving for this now :O Oh, and the restaurant has a super nice toilet with TV! Totally doesn't look like a toilet at all.


Went for a hike up Mont Royal after a hearty brunch. Spent 1 hour just to walk up and spotted a rainbow along the way. After the hike we went to search for the best bagels in Montreal. Apparently there are two very good bakeries, St Viateur Bagel and Fairmount Bagel. We tried both since they were within walking distance from each other!  Tried sesame bagel at St Viateur and it wasn't as plain as I thought, and it somehow reminds me of the butterfly you tiao! It was more chewy than those at Tim Hortons and there is a tinge of sweetness in it. Feeling greedy so I got a cinnamon raisin bagel as well!


Fairmount Bagel had more exotic flavours. We tried an onion bagel and pumpernickel bagel. I like the onion one! We bought smoked salmon spread too, goes really well with the bagels!

Despite going to 2 bagel shops, we were not done with our food trail yet! Went to try the BEST POUTINE at La Banquise. We shared a poutine with mushrooms, onions and green peppers. Sounds healthy but it's not, how can fries be healthy! It was really good, but I would prefer my poutine with meat though. I am a meat lover! To end off the food hunt, we went to try BEST SMOKED MEAT at Schwartz. Queued for pretty long in the cold! I felt that the meat was a little too dry and was a little disappointed. Apparently the one with some fats would taste better but the person did not ask us for our choice and just gave us lean meat :/

To sum up, we went to 5 places in a day JUST TO EAT! Really non-stop eating. #howigetfat
