  • MY 48-HOUR MONTREAL FOOD TOUR

    Posted by

    In November I met up with fellow food blogger, Erin Zimmer, from Serious Eats, who came to Montreal for the weekend to explore the food scene. I took her on my personal foodie tour of Montreal

    Since Erin is serious foodie at heart, I created a special tour of Montreal just for her. It’s a 48-hour gourmet tour of the city, which is ideal for any visitors staying for the weekend. If you have a hearty appetite and a strong stomach — Erin tried everything I suggested — then see if you can eat your way through our epicurean itinerary!

    Since many of the places I mentioned in the video are definite ‘must-sees’ I have already posted articles about them. Click on the links below for more information.

    • Friday evening: Les Cavistes

    • Saturday morning: Olive & Gourmando

    • Saturday afternoon: Schwartz’s

    • Saturday afternoon: St. Viateur Bagels

    • Saturday afternoon: Jean Talon Market

    • Saturday night: Toqué!

    • Sunday brunch: La Cantine

    • Sunday afternoon: stroll along Mt. Royal in the Plateau. A slide show from gay life blogger, Daniel Baylis

    • Sunday afternoon: Point G

    • Sunday evening (it could also be very late on Saturday night or the wee hours of Sunday morning): 24-hour poutine at La Banquise

    Click on this link for a Google Map showing the location of all these places.

    How about you? What is your favourite ‘must-see’ when you have friends staying for the weekend in Montreal? If you’ve visited Montreal before, what do you recommend?

    • By S Lloyd 10-05-07 at 19:27 PM Excellent list Katerine. I guess mine would need some extra days for Erin. It would go like this:
      -Three tables for fine dining: Toque, XO, La Porte
      -4 choices for Bistro: St-Urbain, La Montée, Bistro Cocagne, Au Pied de Cochon
      -Three choices of varied fares:
      Club Chasse Peche, Raza, Jun I
      -Italian/Greek: Milos, Il Mulino or Primo y Segungo
      -A market: Jean Talon
      -The bagels for sure
      -Shwartz for sure
