This tour was one of the highlights of my week in Montreal. Not only did we experience some of the longest-standing food traditions of the city, our 10-member group also gleaned a wealth of historical and architectural backstory to the areas and businesses along the tour. And to settle any disagreement provoked by New Yorkers, a Long Island resident admitted that the Fairmont bagels are AT LEAST as good as the ones on which he was raised.
The people were lovely and diverse, the food represented many of Montreal's traditions, and the guide showed deep understanding and social grace. I loved it!
