Re: Montreal

Are you guys driving there? Hmm we went in January but I would definitely recommend you to visit the Biodome as part of your trip. I dunno about desi but there were several Halal oferings. I think either Namkeen or Ruiner gave me valuable advice.... I had opened a thread back then.

Re: Montreal

Didnt realize you only wanted desi, I had posted other types as well [Turkish, Persian, Chinese, Lebanease etc]. Ya they are good. The few on there that I have been to myself, I have heard good reviews about so included them too

There are lots more, will try to post them later. Are you looking for something in a particular area or does it not matter

I think it was Jean Talon area that had several halal places, we ended up eating at a halal restaurant at the Place dArmes train station…al baik i think, not bad. We used the public transportation, but since your driving and also going in better weather I am sure it’s much nicer.
