I had no idea bagels were a thing in Canada. Who knew? ☺️ I’ll be sure to check out Mile End next time I go home to Brooklyn. I had poutine for the first time last year when my Canadian neighbor whipped up a batch to share. Turns out there is a little shop near where I live in Tokyo that serves poutine regularly. It’s yum but definitely too decadent to eat regularly.

Mile End is amazing! I dare say Montreal style bagels 🥯 are my favorite, and Fairmount or St-Viateur are shrines.

This makes me think of when my partner and I drove up from the (lower) Northwest to Alaska a few years back. Before that, I thought Oregon and Washington were green....once we made it into BC and the Yukon, well, hence why I now refer to those two states as the "lower" Northwest! : )

And honestly, I realize it wasn't the point, but this does make me want poutine....

Mile End is right around the corner from me! I never had their poutine, gotta go back for some artery clogging action.

I went to a wedding in Canada (north of toronto) where they served poutine at the end of the night. It’s in the running for best late-night drunk food, that’s for sure.
