Restaurants
Montreal's ethnic diversity is amply displayed by the variety of cuisines available and Montrealers try to outdo each other by indulging in exotic fare from Japanese rotis to earthy Portuguese grub. The city has its own Chinatown just north of Vieux-Montreal, a Little Italy around Jean-Talon Metro, a Greek community whose cheaper restaurants are concentrated along Prince Arthur - but for more traditional Greek cuisine head further north along avenue du Parc where a number of Greek-Canadians live. Most prominent of the ethnic eateries are the Eastern European establishments dotted around the city. Opened by immigrants who came to work in the garment factories, their speciality is smoked meat , which has become a Montreal obsession, served between huge chunks of rye bread with pickles on the side.
