7. Montreal Smoked Meat
Canada is a nation that is proudly made up of immigrants, and their culinary history shows this to be absolutely true. Although no one has been able to agree on the precise moment that Montreal smoked meat was invented, the general consensus is that it was created based on techniques brought over by Eastern European immigrants.
Now, smoked meat is served all over Canada, but the most delicious and authentic versions are found in Montreal. Popular restaurants Main Deli Steak House and Schwartz’s regularly fight it out for the top spot. And lucky for you, they’re right across the road from each other, so you won’t have to go far to sample both.
