How to make a real Montreal landmark
Wednesday night I posted a silly picture to Twitter about creating a true Montreal landmark, and it’s gone viral in a local way. I’m waiting to see it turn up randomly, uncredited, in other places.

It’s a great meme! Very “cromulent”, as one might say on this blog

It’s a great image.
I posted that last night on this blog, but about 1/3 of my posts get swallowed.

I don’t even use Twitter, and yet I saw it!

Is it Fairmount or St-Viateur?

CE, I sidestepped the issue! The original photo was posted to Wikipedia and says it came from R.E.A.L. Bagel.

What? Wikipedia allows humour? (Great pic!)

I only went to R.E.A.L. Bagel once but remember it being good. For non Mile End bagels, I’m a fan of Beaubien.

I used to go there. It wasn’t Fairmount level, but it was perfectly fine. I believe the Queen Mary location is still REAL bagel, the Cote St Luc Rd one is now Dizz’s bagel and is less good. Bagel Henri Bourassa is good too.

Bagel Henri Bourassa is interesting. The owners are, I think, from India. They sell some of their stuff via Lufa. I’ve never had their bagels, but their onion bhaji are a real treat.

I love the Bill 101 dodging tactic of making your business name an acronym – D.A.D.’s bagels (also run by South Asians) was the spot when I lived in NDG. Is there some connection between naan bread and bagel making?

Their samosas are also nice. I miss D.A.D.’s bagels a lot.
