The 38 Essential Restaurants in Montreal
"In comparing the city’s leading bowls of pho, diners’ preferences vary wildly. For some, Ho Guom’s nourishing chicken and lemon leaf option is unmatched, as are the beefy varieties topped with heaps of bean sprouts and fragrant herbs. But regulars at this quietly adored BYOB in Villeray will tell you other Northern Vietnamese specialties really take center stage. Consider the savory grilled beef wrapped in betel leaf, the fried fish patties, or the Hanoi-style grilled pork, all served with vermicelli and greens. Add an avocado smoothie or an order of chè ba màu (three-color bean dessert) for a sweet finish" - Valerie Silva
