This was my first of what I hope to be many Montreal bagel experiences.
We came here late on a Friday morning and the line was already at the door. For a seemingly small shop, this seemed like a good sign to me. As we were waiting, I also noticed that the majority of orders were just bagels, likely to carry one through the weekend, but was surprised that it wasn't just for lunch orders. There were people here just to buy plain bagels alone and nothing more, which only whetted my lunch appetite more.
We sampled a few bagels, but I was impressed with none more than the everything. I had a salmon sandwich with that bagel and it was so satisfying, the crispiness of the toasted bagel combined with the cool cream cheese and salmon, it was just a solid iteration of a sandwich I've had over a hundred times.
Safe to say, I'm a big fan!
