Made a quick overnight trip to Montreal this weekend to celebrate a pair of birthdays with friends.
I was in the city for less than 24 hours, but still managed to eat a ridiculous amount of delicious but incredibly unhealthy food.
Saturday night’s meal was the Smoked Meat Platter at Dunn’s.
Medium Montreal-style smoked meat, a healthy serving of fries, rye bread, coleslaw and a pickle. The service was fast. We must have gotten our food within three minutes of having placed the order.
Sunday lunch took me to a Belle Province outlet located in St.-Henri, at the corner of Notre-Dame and Atwater. Found this place by accident years ago and now make sure to stop in on every trip to Montreal.
Trio #4 consists of two steamĩs hot dogs, loaded with onions and tabasco sauce and a good sized poutine. Amazing.
Both these meals were washed down by an ice cold Pepsi. Can’t go wrong, although I’m more of a Coke guy myself.
During my time in Montreal, I also mixed in a couple of Tim Hortons coffees, an apple fritter and a few beers.
All in all, a terrific visit, despite the health hazards.. I’ll be eating lots of fruits and veggies this week to compensate.
