Montrealers love their bagels! Whether it’s from Saint-Viateur, Fairmount or anywhere else, many Montrealers will set the record straight: bagels from here are the best. Sure, New York City has an amazing bagel tradition, but Montreal bagels really have something special.

It stands to reason that he is VERY familiar with the New York style bagel… So he decided to visit Montreal and get a bagel-making lesson at Saint-Viateur Bagel!

What do you think? Which is better, the NYC bagel or the Montreal bagel?
