    About this ebook

    There are many people who are enthusiastic about food—the cooking of it, the preparation of it, the serving of it, and let's not forget the eating of it.

     

     

    But Andrew Delaplaine is the ultimate Food Enthusiast.

     

     

    This is another of his books with spot-on reviews of the most exciting restaurants in town. Some will merit only a line or two, just to bring them to your attention. Others deserve a half page or more. 

     

     

    "Exciting" does not necessarily mean expensive. The area's top spots get the recognition they so richly deserve (and that they so loudly demand), but there are plenty of "sensible alternatives" for those looking for good food handsomely prepared by cooks and chefs who really care what they "plate up" in the kitchen.

     

     

    For those with a touch of Guy Fieri, Delaplaine ferrets out the best food for those on a budget. That dingy looking dive bar around the corner may serve up one of the juiciest burgers in town, perfect to wash down with a locally brewed craft beer.

     

     

    Whatever your predilection or taste, cuisine of choice or your budget, you may rely on Andrew Delaplaine not to disappoint.

     

     

    Delaplaine dines anonymously at the Publisher's expense. No restaurant listed in this series has paid a penny or given so much as a free meal to be included.

     

     

    Bon Appétit!

      Introduction

      ––––––––

      Though Quebec has all those quaint little streets and more properly looks like it belongs in a theme park than in the real world, Montreal is really where all the action is in this mostly French-speaking Canadian province.

      This location has always been an economic center, first settled by the Iroquois, and then by the French when they arrived in 1535.

      Two hundred years later, the English took control when they defeated the French, giving Montreal a fascinating cultural history that is reflected in the enormous diversity we find there today.

      Despite the British victory in the field, the French part of Canada couldn’t be stronger. This city has more native-born French speakers than any city in the world besides Paris.

      Certain specialties you’ll want to seek out: poutine (which is basically French fries with a generous dollop of gravy-sauce with cheese curds added), deep-fried foie gras, Portuguese chicken, bagels made in the distinctive Montreal style and smoked meats.

      ––––––––

      POUTINE

      This dish is served as a fast food in Canada (even in the hockey arenas and at certain McDonald’s), and can be almost as revolting as its description sounds, but when done with care and creativity, it’s a masterpiece of simple culinary joy. When it’s done right, the fries will be crispy (not leaden, thick and mealy), and the sauce-gravy will be rich and flavorful.

      Good places to get it are:
