From famous delis to hidden diners, Montreal is known for some exceptional smoked meat (and poutine and bagels).
And while the famous Bernard Avenue eatery changed hands a few years ago, this sends a big sign that Lester’s Deli is standing the test of time when it comes to some of Montreal's best sandwiches.
With all the next-level restaurants in Montreal fully booked for race weekend, including some of the top tables downtown and epic party venues, it’s great to see some of the city’s best cheap eats getting some attention.
