Ma Poule Mouillée

Plateau-Mont-Royal · Portuguese rotisserie · $

When you want a cheap lunch that isn't a tourist trap, this charcoal Portuguese chicken across from La Banquise is the move. The piri-piri chicken is excellent, and the Portuguese poutine (with São Jorge cheese and chouriço) beats the plain version. The room is tiny, so get it to go and eat in Parc La Fontaine across the street — a great-value meal and a park in one stop.

Charcoal Portuguese chicken and a Portuguese-spin poutine — a cheap, genuinely excellent fast meal across from Parc La Fontaine. Tiny, so often takeout.
