St-Viateur Bagel
The Montreal bagel is its own thing — boiled in honey water, baked in a wood oven, denser and sweeter than New York's. Get a sesame one straight from the oven and eat it warm on the sidewalk. This is the original takeout shop.
Wood-fired, honey-boiled Montreal bagels since 1957. Hand-rolled, smaller and sweeter than New York's, eaten hot.
