The 38 Best Restaurants in Montreal, Canada | Eater
"Montreal is home to the largest Haitian community in Canada, and its influence runs deep, especially in the food scene. The city brims with casual Haitian joints that specialize in marinated, braised, then fried pork known as griot — and everyone has their favorite. Sissi & Paul is a takeout-only spot in the Saint-Michel neighbourhood, a longtime Haitian hub, and it has occupied a place in the top tier since opening in 2015. The restaurant is known for griot, but it also serves outstanding chicken and cabrit (stewed goat) with fried plantains, tangy pikliz, and your choice of riz collé (rice with red kidney beans) or djon djon (rice with black mushrooms). Must-try dish: The moitié-moitié (half chicken, half griot), so you don’t have to choose between the proteins. Throw in some accras (malanga fritters), kibi (ground beef fritters), and a chilled Cola Couronne, and you’re looking at a Haitian feast that’s become a staple of Montreal life." - Valerie Silva
