Ma-Am-M Buldoc is the place where makeshift meets gourmet. The menu is huge, and looking through the funky thing takes forever to order. The staff was ultra-friendly and helpful, the host was seemingly up for the challenge of English speakers. That was charming.
I loved the crepes and the gravy on the poutine was my favorite of the 3 I've had in Montreal. I believe that Montrealers overdo their hamburgers, but the bun, and toppings were great on it. So was the salad. I'd love to come here again and again. It be great to even tell people you come here again and again. While not "too cool for school", they are definitely at a cloud level of coolness.
This was our first meal in Montreal -- our introduction couldn't have been better.
