Being rather populist in nature, I must take this conversation down to the slums a bit. Montreal (where I grew up and lived during my university years) has a pastrami-like cured beef called smoked meat. Schwartz' Deli on The Main (St. Lawrence Blvd, or St. Laurent in French) is the best. Served with fresh-cut fries, their "regular" (as opposed to lean or fatty) smoked meat on rye with mustard, fries and a cherry coke is heaven. Even though I've decided to eat meat no longer, I think that's my favourite meal of all time. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
