ollie Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Discovered these too last time I was in Montreal with Christine. I think Schwarz's > St. Viateur > Highway 10 will be our new "leaving Montreal" ritual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Fairmount Bagels are owned by the same people and serve the same bagels. However a Montreal local would be best to confirm or deny that, I heard it from a friend while very drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THey have 2 shops on St. Viateur, the main one with all the trimmings and another one near the corner of St. Urbain that's more of a "factory" to produce for restos and whatnot. Fairmount is owned by other people and their bagels taste different. We've had taste-offs. I'm partial to the st. v bagels myself, though both do handily in a pinch.

AdamH Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Cafe Olympico's Latte is the only Latte I've ever liked. They must use whole milk or something really creamy in it. Their espresso is all class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
