Looking forward to the new B'klyn fress in a couple of weeks!

Montreal bagel tasted like white bread and the Montreal Pastrami was so highly spiced it wouldn't go down. David;

Look at these comments on Kenny & Zuke's after the NYT piece: http://www.portlandfoodanddrink.com/2010/04/kenny-zukes-hits-ny-times/#respond @Jack My experience with Montreal bagels is that the interiors do taste fairly white-bready, and to me, it's the textural contrast between their exteriors (rather crunchy) and interiors that makes them special. And your description of the smoked meat makes me want some NOW! @David
