Several itineraries leave from the port city of Montreal, Quebec. Montreal is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and perhaps its finest attraction is its culinary community. Simply put, you&#8217;ll be hard-pressed to find a city that has a better collection of restaurants and eateries anywhere. Whether you&#8217;re looking for some homegrown poutine (a local favorite featuring french fries covered in gravy) or a more fancy affair in a 3-star restaurant, you&#8217;ll be able to find just about anything in this city. Plan to have a meal before you board your cruise ship or after you disembark, before heading home.<\/p>\n<p>One of the great things about eating in Montreal is the variety of options that are available. Montreal is a melting pot of culture, and this is reflected beautifully in the food\u00a0of the city&#8217;s best restaurants. Here are three of our favorite places to grab a bite:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Joe Beef: <\/strong>According to Eater Montreal, David Chang&#8217;s favorite restaurant in the world is Joe Beef. Located on Rue Notre-Dame Ouest, it is considered by many to be Canada&#8217;s best restaurant, with a menu that focuses on reinventing rustic, meat-heavy dishes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_47428\" style=\"width: 586px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014.jpg\"><picture data-avif-picture=\"1\"><source type=\"image\/avif\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014-200x200.avif 200w, https:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014-400x224.avif 400w, https:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014.avif 576w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"><img data-avif-wrap=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47428\" class=\"wp-image-47428 size-full\" title=\"The Caesar at Joe Beef in Montreal\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014.jpg\" alt=\"joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014\" width=\"576\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.cruiseexperts.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/joe-beef-caesar-cocktail-07032014-400x224.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/picture><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-47428\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Caesar is very popular.
