I went on a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.viator.com\/tours\/Montreal\/Beyond-the-Bagel-Montreal-Jewish-Food-Walking-Tour\/d625-14992P1?aid=prdm20\">fun little tour named Beyond The Bagel: Montreal Jewish Food<\/a> where I learned everything about the history and origins of this iconic dish, as well as that of other staples of Jewish cuisine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I already knew the Mile-End, Plateau Mont-Royal, and Outremont areas quite well, since I live just 10 minutes away and some of my favourite restaurants and shops are located nearby. But a few minutes into this tour, I found out that what I thought I knew about the Jewish heritage in Montreal was, well, insignificant. I was excited to learn how the tight-knit Montreal Jewish community shaped the city as I know it today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s the deal with Montreal

Records say that&nbsp;the first bagel bakery, aptly named \u201cThe Montreal Bagel Bakery\u201d, set up shop in 1919 by Isadore Schlafman in an alley behind St-Laurent Boulevard. Meanwhile, Chaim Seligman was gallivanting all over the city with his horse-drawn carriage full of bagels, sold by the dozen. All was well in the Montreal bagelverse, until Seligman and&nbsp;Schlafman\u2019s son, Jack, did business together but quickly&nbsp;quarreled and parted ways &#8211; anyone could&#8217;ve seen that coming! It wasn&#8217;t until 1949 that Schlafman bought a cottage in the Mile End, more specifically on Fairmount Street, and was blunt enough to go and name it &#8220;The Original Fairmount Bagel Bakery&#8221;. Soon after, in 1957, Seligman ditched the carriages and opened St-Viateur Bagel Shop with Holocaust survivor and Krakow-born Myer Lewkowicz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the rest is history! Montrealers have since been divided on the topic of bagels, and I don&#8217;t see how that this issue will be resolved in the near future. But secretly, I think it&#8217;s just an excuse to eat more bagels. Om nom nom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, as far as the bagels are concerned, the reason why they are better than New York&#8217;s (I am not letting this one go) is because they are poached in honey-infused boiling water, and then baked in a wood-fired oven. The result is a much sweeter, thinner (but not thinning!), and less dense bagel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smoked meat, bialys, kokosh and more yummies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone wp-image-15911 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-14.jpg\" alt=\"plateau mont-royal\" class=\"wp-image-15911\"\/><figcaption>Schwartz&#8217;s smoked meat<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"794\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3-794x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"25720\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/olympus-digital-camera-24\/\" class=\"wp-image-25720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3-794x1024.jpg 794w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3-768x990.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3-1191x1536.jpg 1191w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-3.jpg 1551w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 794px) 100vw, 794px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-1-875x656.jpg\" alt=\"montreal bagels\" data-id=\"15898\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/everything-youve-ever-wanted-to-know-about-montreal-bagels\/olympus-digital-camera-322\/\" class=\"wp-image-15898\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-13-875x656.jpg\" alt=\"montreal bagels\" data-id=\"15910\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-13.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/everything-youve-ever-wanted-to-know-about-montreal-bagels\/olympus-digital-camera-354\/\" class=\"wp-image-15910\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-12-e1441997143169-794x1024.jpg\" alt=\"montreal bagels\" data-id=\"15909\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/montreal-bagels-12-e1441997143169-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/everything-youve-ever-wanted-to-know-about-montreal-bagels\/olympus-digital-camera-353\/\" class=\"wp-image-15909\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Wilensky&#8217;s<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"875\" height=\"656\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11-875x656.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"25724\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/montreal-bagels-11\/\" class=\"wp-image-25724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11-875x656.jpg 875w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/montreal-bagels-11.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 875px) 100vw, 875px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>No offense to the doughy goodness that are bagels, but this tour is called Beyond The Bagel, and so we went on to eat some other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting at Cheskie&#8217;s, a blink-and-you&#8217;ll-miss-it kosher bakery that describes itself as &#8220;a bakery for everyone&#8221;, seeing as it employs Venezuelans and Canadians of various religious confessions, not only Jews.

It&#8217;s one of the most iconic places in the Mile End, and yet, for some reason, I&#8217;d never gone inside until then.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>#kt-layout-id_100948-b9 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(#kt-layout-id_100948-b9 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}#kt-layout-id_100948-b9 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var( --global-kb-row-default-top, 25px );padding-bottom:var( --global-kb-row-default-bottom, 25px );padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr) minmax(0, 2fr);}#kt-layout-id_100948-b9 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){#kt-layout-id_100948-b9 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr) minmax(0, 2fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){#kt-layout-id_100948-b9 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-rowlayout alignnone\"><div id=\"kt-layout-id_100948-b9\" class=\"kt-row-layout-inner kt-row-has-bg kt-layout-id_100948-b9 has-theme-palette-8-background-color\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-gutter-default kt-v-gutter-default kt-row-valign-top kt-row-layout-right-golden kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-m-colapse-left-to-right kt-mobile-layout-row\"><style>.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col{border-top-width:0px;border-right-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-width:0px;}.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_560faa-78{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_560faa-78 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column inner-column-1 kadence-column_560faa-78\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<h6 class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:16px;line-height:1.4\">+<br>montreal travel tips<\/h6>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col{border-top-width:0px;border-right-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-width:0px;}.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_2e2b7a-30 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column inner-column-2 kadence-column_2e2b7a-30\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/cheap-eats-in-montreal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">From Old Montreal to Mile End: 15 cheap eats under $15 in Montreal<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>And then, our guide took me to a place I would&#8217;ve never suspected would be on a Jewish food tour program, Hof Kelsten. The bakery is one of the trendiest in the city, not just in terms of popularity but also of design, and hipsters abound. It turns out that Jeffrey&nbsp;Finkelstein\u2019s Jewish heritage inspired him to cook his mom&#8217;s brisket for a living and sell city\u2019s only&nbsp;bialys, which medium-sized rolls filled with&nbsp;onions, either caramelized or raw, originating from Bia\u0142ystok&nbsp;in Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soon enough, it was time to say goodbye, but not before a mandatory stop at the bastion of Montreal&#8217;s Jewish cuisine, Schwartz&#8217;s. I&#8217;d never actually eaten there before because frankly, the super long queues filled with tourists always sort of discouraged me from going in. But when you are on a Jewish food tour, you don&#8217;t have to wait and you get to bypass everyone in line. YAAAAS. And then I understood why people queue. My smoked meat sandwich and pickle were both amazing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\"
