Seven Wonders of Canada
Resilient and chewy on the outside, soft and soulful on the inside… not unlike the Montrealers who nominated it, the Montreal bagel stands for something. What that something is - we’re not exactly sure… but the bagel definitely goes down well with a nice thick dollop of cream cheese. Mmmmmm. Cream cheese. Whether you go with the Fairmount or the St. Viateur bagel – you really can’t go wrong. Come on and hit the “vote” button for this one. You know you want to.

Walking into St. Viateur Bakery in Montreal is like walking back into the world of my dad's youth.... A wood fired kiln, with long planks loaded with lines of unbaked doughy bagels dipped in sesame or poppy seeds...and then moments later, I sink my teeth into a fresh, soft, fresh mouthwatering Montreal Bagel. No where else on this planet do they make bagels like these!”
