The Montreal bagel is smaller, thinner, sweeter and denser than the New York style, with a larger hole. It is hand rolled, boiled in honey-sweetened water and baked in a wood-fired oven.
Montreal bagels, like New York's, were brought to North America by Jewish immigrants from Poland and other Eastern European countries. Fairmount Bagel says Isadore Shlafman opened the city's first bagel bakery in 1919, rolling bagels by hand and baking them in a wood-fired oven. St-Viateur Bagel Shop was founded in 1957, and both bakeries still operate in Mile End.
