2019 Bishop Montreal, Quebec Metro:  Guy-Concordia, Peel Bus:  STM 15, 24, 57, 66, 165, 166, 427, 435 Visit:  May 29, 2012 http://smokespoutinerie.com/ For me, in 2012, it has been quite a weak year for poutine.  Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy having my Benny’s poutine, which has become a weekly offering for me.  Montreal is one of the easiest places to find poutine in the entire...

3090 Sherbrooke E. Montreal, Quebec Metro:  Prefontaine Bus:  STM 29, 85, 97, 185 Visit:  May 24, 2012 http://www.miamideli.com/ When you think of Miami, you don’t necessarily think of your normal Quebec selection of food.  But, on one street corner on Sherbrooke East, you have a place that’s open 24 hours a day and decked out in everything you could possibly think of shark-wise. ...

Burger 145: Kapetan
576 Victoria St-Lambert, Quebec Train:  St-Lambert Bus:  RTL 1, 6, 55, 106 Visit:  May 17, 2012 http://www.restaurantkapetan.com/ For the second burger in a row, I find myself in the South Shore of Montreal.  Like many of the places I’ve been doing on my native shore, they all hold some semblance of nostalgia for me.  This particular stretch of Victoria, in the downtown core of St-Lambert,...

Burger 144: L'Aurochs
9395 Leduc, suite 5 Brossard, Quebec Bus:  RTL 14, 35, 135 Visit:  May 10, 2012 http://laurochs.com/ One of the most important things for me in this Burger Search is trying to find places close to home.  The South Shore of Montreal doesn’t quite have the quality, signature places that the island does.  It might be the case when it comes to restaurants, but when it comes to shopping,...
