So one quick disclaimer before you continue, Montreal style hot dogs (aka "Steamies") are steamed, not grilled or boiled. Sounds gross, but trust me they aren't like those nasty New York water dogs, they are more like magic for your mouth. As long as you are aware of this going in you're going to do just fine. The original joint opened up in 1912 and my Dad has been going here since he came to Canada in the 1950's, so the Pool Room is pretty much my birthright. Of course you always have La belle Pro, Valentines and La Fleurs - but none can hold a candle to the Pool Room's perfectly steamed delicacy. Order yours "All dressed" - mustard, onion, relish and "choux" (a coleslaw type cabbage topping) and make sure to get a poutine on the side. Personally I like to add a dash of cayenne to my dogs and poutine, but to each their own. Burgers are also delish, and if you aren't a fan of steamies, you can always get a "toasty" (a hot dog w/ a bun that resembles toasted bread) - but the steamies are the real deal Holyfield so make sure you at least try one.
