The 38 Best Restaurants in Montreal, Canada | Eater
"Smash burger joints have been cropping up all around town, but this Villeray spot should command your attention. A classic casse-croûte reimagined with some West Coast flair, the concept originated in 2015, when chef Michel Lim first started flipping burgers out of his garage for a Restaurant Day pop-up. Today, he and partner Michel Nguyen (the two are childhood friends and the minds behind La Belle Tonki) draw crowds to an eclectic space that blends hip-hop culture and movie posters with a retro diner aesthetic. MDMH impresses with perfectly pressed patties, crisply caramelized at the edges, while Lim’s thinly cut fries, cooked in beef tallow, star in poutine and the Ol’ Dirty: a mishmash with cheese sauce, house burger sauce, pickles, and onions. Vibe check: Hip-hop and hamburger heads unite in these basement digs." - Valerie Silva
