Man I've never even heard of chez Tousignant. I'll head over there this week.
Marc-André B I know that place mainly because one of the co-owners is Stefano Faita... still haven't been though!
Since I sadly can't go there as I am not in the country, please eat some for me as well!
@@offthesidelines it's the bald guy right?
aR0ttenBANANA96 yup!
et puis c'etai comment
This is the type of reviewer I like. No exaggerated reactions, just an honest and precise description o the food.
Been living in Montreal for 30 years and never heard of this place. Thanks for this Eater! I will try it soon.
How's 6th mate!!!!!
This guy is a great host, I've binged his vids.
Also dig how chill he is in his style choice rn
He's also superb in person.
Lucas is a real pro! It is so easy for food show hosts to come across as pretentious or overbearing. He's got this calm natural enthusiasm and the confidence to let his interviewees talk, and give a clear direct and personal narration of the food he's eating. "I can hear it in my back molars, the squeak!".
Happy to see Eater in Montreal! Thanks for visiting!
Big Mike seems like such a good guy & had his back catalog of Dining on a Dime episodes down pat. Great to see a chef being a fan of Lucas' Academy and Tony award winning work.
FINALLY SOMEONE CORRECTED THE PRONUNCIATION
And yet Lucas mispronounced it even worst at the end lol.
Should spell it correctly instead of confusing T for and S.
@@cncaliguy09 where do you ear an S? Putin is the closest you'll get in english.
@@Alex-tr3xo 0:59
Exactly.
I love your show so much. Watching it at lunch and makin me feel 😒 about my lunch lol
"I saw that episode". lol
Came down here instantly just to find yo ass :T
Bring back Dining on a Dime! I have really missed this series!
This guy knows what's up. His description of poutine shows that he's someone who really understands the essence and soul of what is poutine.
Lucas not your first rodeo to Montreal. They appreciate you speaking en francais. Glad you seem to be having a fun time in our neck of the woods.
Will def head there soon! J'avoue que le Big Mike a l'air écoeurant xD
I'm just about to book a trip to Montreal!! just in time. Au Revoir Toronto, Bonjour Montreal!
Weed is legal in Montreal so smoke an hour before you go

On god when u high a classic cheeseburger is too damn good
The weed store is a 10 minutes walk from the restaurant
@@louismonette2468 Add a poutine with that too
Brilliant 😂
Pass by this place all the time. Never had the time to try, but I definitely want to try it now!!
just found this channel it is now my favorite youtube channel and ive watched lots of youtube
Thanks for watching!
Just about to have Poutine myself. Great episode!
His storytelling is so effortless. 💪
I'm late to this series. I dig it.
I ate at Chez Tousignant, and I appreciate the remix but there's no beating the classic Poutine and Montreal Hot Dog. Try Chez Claudette (My favorite for a poutine and steamie combo) or any Belle Province for those two, and the Montreal Pool Room, and Restaurant AA and Green Spot in St Henri, and la Pataterie in Hochelaga, and even Mont Royal Hot Dog on the Plateau and Décarie Hot Dog in St Laurent, even if they've gotten pricey.
Bref, there's better for cheaper. The emperor has no clothes ;)
Decarie hotdog is life for hotdogs but theres better poutine in mtl..
Chez ma tante best hot dogs...
@Quietloud Chez Claudette, Chez Tousignant, Green Spot (good thick brown gravy), Montreal Pool Room, Rotisserie Romados, Ma Poule Mouillee, Sharwarmaz
this is way better than doing my math homework
great commentary!!!!
Lucas beats out all other food critics. He is the only one that can describe the food so that the viewers can "taste" the food.
Now that’s my kind of restaurant. They should build one here in California.
I like your drink 🥂
I just ate at this place the other day, that big mike burger is one of the best burgers I’ve had in my life. This place isn’t cheap tho, the big mike was $13, just the burger alone. That might be fine if you’re alone but this place gets pricey for a family.
Oh, $13? :o
I thought Lucas said he bought he's whole feast for $30?
Though I guess the burger would be the priciest thing there.
but canadian dollars i guess. so 13 would be like 9 Us dollars, i think?
Yeah at $9USD it's not cheap for sure...
In Australia I can get a super yummy burger made with fresh items from local fish n chip place for around $6-8 AUD ($4-6 USD)
you make up for it in other places though .. aus is generally quite expensive and usually far pricier then much of canada. it also doesn't mean you can't get cheaper food in canada, or more expensive food in aus !
Yeah you are right, just depends on the area you go to and how popular a place gets, was just throwing out a number that I tend to pay for a burger in my area, but if I were in the CBD paying $12-15 AUD for a burger alone wouldn't be super rare.
Great job !!!
LOVE this Montreal series!! Makes me want to drive there and EAT! 😍
You didn't mention how the hot dog bun is special! ☹️
yeah, clearly, grilled buns
That big Mike burger looks awesome.
Been living 10 minutes away from this place for over 2 years but never been! Mainly because we never actually plan to eat this kind of food over here, it's something that usually just happens, often when under a certain influence, and typically in the wee hours, when few places are still open. But I'll try to give this place a go some time.
I LOVED the BIG ED burger from Moes.. Too bad they closed.. I will go check this out. Thanks for the vid!
Why is Lucas not on Netflix? He is the best at describing food whereas many still go YUM YUM YUM - Asian Food Nerd IG
I live in Montreal and fully agree that this is the best Buger you'll have in the city ! Been there so many time !! Even the Club Sandwich is amazing.
Hi 👋 I'm living in Montreal were is this restaurant in Montreal???
Jeezum, that hotdog's got snap! In Maine we call them "red snappahs." Wicked good!
Lived in Quebec for summer school and they have best cheese curds...Kwick Kwick cheese curds from the Basque region. They squeak a lot
wonderstars best curds come From Balderson cheese factory in Ontario
@@buzzymm Best curds come from Quebec*
@@dpchiko17 Incorrect! Squeakiest Curds still warm from being made fresh come from Balderson Cheese, I live in Quebec and the curds here are tasteless compared to Balderson Cheese
@@dpchiko17 Best Curds you will ever try! www.baldersonvillagecheese.com/products/balderson-village-coloured-cheese-curds?variant=33457600462987¤cy=CAD&
Best curds come from Maine.
Thank you Eater and Lucas for these awesome videos in Montreal. I cant wait for my family trip around Canada next month. Moms the trip planner but im the food guy lol
Stay tuned for more cheap eats from Lucas' trip to Montreal. Thanks for watching!
I'm from ontario. And the best burger I have ever had was at a place in anjou montreal the restaurant which is also a brewery la brassiere. Needs no condiments this burger. It's amazing...
I agree! This is the greatest burger in Montreal
Good thing I live in Montreal
Yo casse-croute is a real thing?! Just thought it was a part of the French curriculum lol
Man... These guys know what's up.
Been there, great place!
" I'm coming to to Little Italy to buy a burger." Lol.
At least he's not going to Chinatown to liquidate somebody.
Looks glorious. I need to try that burger. I’ve never heard of this place before. Union Burger is a big one
Tessa H. U mean Uniburger ? :
"good dog"
now i know why the real dog called 'good boi'
When he sits down with the poutine it sounds like he's pronouncing it "putain!"
There is actually no correct pronunciation. Some even say that it starts with a letter b.
Merci beaucoup, Eater!!❤️
Amazing
Yes my favorite series is back!
Watching this during lockdown 😭
At least you are not locked inside of a natural casing hot dog. They're snappy.
The more burger joints appear in Montreal the fewer squirrels I see on the mountain.
I shoulda went there when i was in Montreal back in 2019
Their corn dogs are the bomb!
How did Lucas, who is decently multilingual, get corrected on the pronunciation of poutine and then end up mispronouncing it even more (and like a swear word, of all things) lmao.
PUTAIN
I’ve been here a few times, it’s really tasty but definitively not dining on a dime! You’re easily spending 20 for just a trio
Maybe they charged you extra for some reason. Have you thought about that?
Michael Boshko they did not i can read my bill thanks!
@@valf156115 cool, makes sense
Wheel of Butter!
You reading this comment, go to PICKS on St-Catherine/St-Marc
Chez Simon on Hochelaga east, in the mercier neighborhood, won best burger this year
I agree!!!
We're is this restaurant in Montreal???
Best burger in the city. I used to eat lunch here every Friday
tousignant literally sounds like Tous Saignant (french) which means All Bloody
It's also just a last name, which a quick Google says is derived from Toussaint (All Saints).
Haven't read the other 240 comments.... But hopefully those were St. Albert's curd they were using. !! ❤
You were in Montreal no waaayyy
Thanks for existing Lucas !!!!!!!1
Nice video
Damn Lucas showed this before I had a chance to! It's on my must shoot list!
Correction. He barely showed it. Anyone else notice his Montreal series shows and discusses the food a lot less then the other eps??
IDK man I really liked Burger Royal on St Laurent
dislikes on this series are because dining on a dime videos end too quickly.
His critique is always so soft doesn't feel right
I can't believe that Lucas is actually in his 60's. Unbelievable.
Never heard a native French speaker say poutine, but being Belgian and French being my second language I can definitely say that that certainly isn’t how you’d pronounce “poutine”
It sounds like a Dutch man trying to say putain
He didnt look like he enjoyed any of it to me. looks like he was just being polite.
gotta be honest. i dont want soggy fries. ever. duck fat in portland ME makes a great poutine with super crispy fries. maybe its not "authentic" but its much more satisfying for me
I like how the Italian guy can juggle English, French (given that he lives in Montreal there's no way he can speak french with an accent & not get judged) & Italian without a specific accent shadowing the other 2. Kudos to you on that chef.
That's montreal for you. I lived there for a short time, and it seems like every one speaks 3 languages. A really wonderful city.
This is montreal! We mostly speak 3 languages, sometimes 4 if our parents are from two different cultures!
yay you're back!!!!!!!!!!! please come to houston soon and let me give u the food tour!!!!!!!!!
i enjoy my poutines with a bit of crunch, well-done fries for me please.
I like it soft. I usually get it mashed in an ice cream cone.
Michael Boshko good for you
I've been in Montreal for 2 years and haven't heard of this place. I'll try it out this week!
40 bux americano . That's harsh but when in Montreal
I cant watch gravy making crispy fries soggy even after years.
Bring me back two, Lucas. Thanks.
Do people actually say enchanté when they come into restaurants in Montréal (en Québec)? Merci en avance
johnnyrockets10
No.. it’s the same as saying “it’s nice to meet you”.
@@bobbiusshadow6985 oui je sais je suis Parisian. C'est juste bizarre de dire ça dans ce contexte
Lucas got a Tony? Wow
This is the best burger in the city.
Try "Decarie Hotdogs" 🤔
That's a really classic Casse-Croute. Definitely one to hit up for anyone after an authentic experience. But it's in a part of town where few tourists would ever end up. Anyone who went to Vanier or lives in the area knows that place is the bomb.
its called a greasy spoon in Henglish
"putzin" means "a bit" in romanian
just saw the host of this show make a small cameo in Jane the Virgin season 1 haha
Not everyone knows poutine in Germany we don’t have poutine...
Goddamn the audio levels are all over the place for this video. Lucas talks too quietly and mumbles indoors, so please adjust the volume like so
I really want to love cheese curds, but that squeaky sound when eating it is like nails on a chalkboard but in my mouth.
No try b12 burger in cure labelle laval or kirkland
So?
Little Italy in a french province. Does the majority of citizens speak English?
Vive le Québec
Best cheeseburger in the city!!!
Poo10 is really good😂
if you go there get the burger and fries but stay away from the hotdogs they are wayyy overpriced
I just wanna eat like 5000 calories worth of their food and die
You’re attracted to cole slaw… take it easy
