Other noteworthy places are La Pataterie in Hochelaga and Paul Patates in Point St Charles. Otherwise, Ma Poule Mouillée across the street from La Banquise make an amazing piri-piri and linguiça poutine. Other than that, I always like to get my poutine with a steamie, a Montreal hot dog dressed with mustard, relish, onions and sauerkraut.

Everyone speaks English in the city apart from the very old. Cab drivers too. I had some African Uber driver who spoke French and whatever African dialect his profile said no English but that was BS. He spoke pretty good english. I was happy since I got to practice my French which is nearly impossible in the city limits. If you go to Granby (excellent for their water park/zoo, you read that right. It’s awesome) they speak almost no English outside the park. Brossard and Montreal all have lots of English speakers

Great review with lots of practical comments. Poland? I think bagels and smoked meat recipes came to Montreal from the Ukraine. If you don't want to tip, it's not impossible but it's considered an insult (i.e. if you truly got bad service and want to send a message). The traditional French practice is to leave four pennies but alas, there are no more pennies in Canada, so bring pennies from another country. (No tipping allowed at Wilensky's).

Montreal is indeed perfect

Montreal is not the quaint old Montréal or the generic downtown. Nope , Montréal is about it's borough like le plateau, Rosemont , la petite patrie , etc . Its outside spiral staircase, it's parks , its life on it's balcony etc

There is a new automated skytrain( REM ,moderrn public transport ) under construction from the airport to downtown and around the city of $ 9 billion ...Montreal is built on an Island , 7 times bigger than Manhattan with the largest urban park in Canada , Mount Royal park .

Quebec French is not the same as French though! Québécois is it’s own dialect as I have heard often, and even French have a hard time understanding.
