Montreal is famous for its diverse authentic cuisine. Montreal€s famous nightlife is as famous as it is because of Montreal restaurants. On New Years weekend especially, the chefs in town take out all the stops. Any self-respecting visitor to Montreal will be ready to start the day with breakfast at 1PM. Eggspectations is one way to kick things off. Funky d€cor and great food make this a definite favorite. Chez Cora is also good, right off Ste Catherine and famous for bacon! After a heavy night at Montreal clubs, our favorite lunch is burgers and fries. Mr. Steer is the best! Make sure to get their curly fries. Dinners are the most fun meal in Montreal. Eat sushi at Soto or at Ginger if you€re feeling trendy. If you€re feeling uber trendy, try Time Caf€ and Buona Notte, or Globe if you want to meet celebrities. Eat steak in an old stable in Old Montreal/Old Port at Gibby€s, or Baton Rouge if you€re saving money for booze. Or have a liquid dinner and a side order of club sandwich at Montreal€s famous Peel Pub. At the end the night, do not go to bed without eating one of the following three things: *Shish Taouk € this chicken pita wrap at Boustan on Crescent Street is the perfect hangover prevention meal. They even toast the sandwich a bit before giving it to you. It€s amazing! *Smoked Meat sandwich € Schwartz€s Smoked Meat is a Montreal Institution. , If you€re on St Laurent at 2AM, walk up a few blocks and grab a Schwartz€s. Do not miss this! *Poutine € You can get poutine on any street corner, but La Belle Province is top notch! Not one, TWO layers of fries, sauce and melting cheese. Long life is overrated. However, we'd be remiss not to mention Montreal's favorite Poutine stop.... La Banquise
