These bagels are the same exact thing you can buy in Montreal. In fact, the guy who makes them used to work at St. Viateur in Montreal... or maybe ir was Fairmount. At any rate, he learned from the best, and makes them the same way here in Calgary. He and his wife run this small shop, both are very kind and it's always a nice trip to see them and get bagels.
they also make some sandwiches that you can eat in the shop, the lox is to die for!!!
