I intend to finish off this leg of the tour with several days in Montreal, one of the world’s best food cities. Here’s what I wrote about Montreal a few years ago …

Has anyone ever had a cake from Soutine (the bakery on West 70th Street)? Whadya think? And how does it rank overall?

Having recently returned from Hong Kong, I’ve been missing the fantastic pork buns available from ubiquitous storefront bakeries there. Well, this weekend, stumbled across Maria’s Bakery in Rockville, which gave me...

a year ago. They now have a bakery, it is not open yet, they have a few more things to finish but they were giving away samples tonight and taking orders for Christmas. The owner seems like a sweet lady, and she makes sublime...

Monte Leone, a traditional Italian bakery on Court St. in Carroll Gardens,makes a sublime ricotta cheesecake.

Looking for one to complete our Christmas dinner. I’ve seen them in the Whole Foods and Wegmans ads — are they any good? I am new here and unfamiliar with local bakeries. I would prefer the Fairfax area. Thank you, Beth

These areas seem to sort of meld into one another so I’m not always sure which joint is in which place, but was out there the other day and past a bunch of joints, anyone have any words on them that would be great. First...

I’m looking for good bakery bread, particularly a round loaf that I can use for sandwiches, toast or dipping. I’ve tried Broadway Bakery (too soft), the bakery next to C-town on Yellowstone (too sweet), and Bonelle...

Savoy Bakery, St Mary’s Fluffy but substantial pineapple brioche. Not as light as I would have liked, but irresistable all the same. Apricot croissant is chewy and a little denser than a crisp flakey platonic ideal, but the...
