Authentic burgers, hot-dogs and fries with an edge at Chez Tousignant

If you’re in for a tried-and-true snack back in Montreal, look no further, Chez Tousignant is exactly what you’re looking for. The small restaurant located in Petite-Patrie, a residential neighbourhood which is part of the Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie borough. If you are planning a trip off the beaten tourist path to Jean-Talon Market, make sure to visit Chez Tousignant and try everything on their menu.

What’s on the menu at Chez Tousignant?

The menu contains everything you would get at an authentic Québécois snack bar but with a very Montreal edge. Everything from the burger patties to the bread or fries is local and homemade. They even do their own sodas — which are absolutely amazing by the way. Every time, I go a little overboard and order too much but it’s so hard to decide since everything is so good. Oh and did I mention they serve doughnuts and milkshakes? If you’re feeling classic, opt for a hot dog with a side of fries — oh and don’t forget the vinegar on your fries, it’s crucial to get the full snack bar experience.

If you like what you eat, I recommend trying out their two other — completely different — restaurants: Pizzeria GEMA & Impasto
