The best greasy spoon in town. If you want gourmet poutine, go to La Banquise. If you want authentic, eat here. Open all night Thurs-Sat nights, so its a great way to end a late night out.

Lester's Deli
1057 Av. BernardUnderrated smoked meat. Better and way less touristy than Schwartz's
Hot&fresh bagels 24 hours a day. The biggest mistake you can make is not getting a hot bagel. 95% of the time the freshest batch will be sesame seed, but just order "whatever just came out of the oven"
If you want cream cheese with it, grab a container of Western (in a yellow package); it's much better than Philadelphia. Also no need to cut & spread, just rip & dip your hot bagels in the cream cheese.
