This Is Montreal's Best Burger Shack — Dining on a Dime

On today's episode of DOD, Lucas is at Chez Tousignant, a burger shack in Montreal.

Eater is the one-stop-shop for food and restaurant obsessives across the country. With features, explainers, animations, recipes, and more — it’s the most indulgent food content around. So get hungry.

Man I've never even heard of chez Tousignant. I'll head over there this week.

This is the type of reviewer I like. No exaggerated reactions, just an honest and precise description o the food.

[hassansabrah]

Been living in Montreal for 30 years and never heard of this place. Thanks for this Eater! I will try it soon.

[wooof.]

This guy is a great host, I've binged his vids.
Also dig how chill he is in his style choice rn

Happy to see Eater in Montreal! Thanks for visiting!

Lucas is a real pro! It is so easy for food show hosts to come across as pretentious or overbearing. He's got this calm natural enthusiasm and the confidence to let his interviewees talk, and give a clear direct and personal narration of the food he's eating. "I can hear it in my back molars, the squeak!".

FINALLY SOMEONE CORRECTED THE PRONUNCIATION

[rushu]

Weed is legal in Montreal so smoke an hour before you go

Big Mike seems like such a good guy & had his back catalog of Dining on a Dime episodes down pat. Great to see a chef being a fan of Lucas' Academy and Tony award winning work.

I ate at Chez Tousignant, and I appreciate the remix but there's no beating the classic Poutine and Montreal Hot Dog. Try Chez Claudette (My favorite for a poutine and steamie combo) or any Belle Province for those two, and the Montreal Pool Room, and Restaurant AA and Green Spot in St Henri, and la Pataterie in Hochelaga, and even Mont Royal Hot Dog on the Plateau and Décarie Hot Dog in St Laurent, even if they've gotten pricey.

I just ate at this place the other day, that big mike burger is one of the best burgers I’ve had in my life. This place isn’t cheap tho, the big mike was $13, just the burger alone. That might be fine if you’re alone but this place gets pricey for a family.

Bring back Dining on a Dime! I have really missed this series!

[sundawg]

Lucas not your first rodeo to Montreal. They appreciate you speaking en francais. Glad you seem to be having a fun time in our neck of the woods.

[mooncake]

Pass by this place all the time. Never had the time to try, but I definitely want to try it now!!

[AmelieZh]

I'm just about to book a trip to Montreal!! just in time. Au Revoir Toronto, Bonjour Montreal!

[Adams]

Been living 10 minutes away from this place for over 2 years but never been! Mainly because we never actually plan to eat this kind of food over here, it's something that usually just happens, often when under a certain influence, and typically in the wee hours, when few places are still open. But I'll try to give this place a go some time.

[CortezwithaZ]

Now that’s my kind of restaurant. They should build one here in California.

Lived in Quebec for summer school and they have best cheese curds...Kwick Kwick cheese curds from the Basque region. They squeak a lot

[antho-m]

I live in Montreal and fully agree that this is the best Buger you'll have in the city ! Been there so many time !! Even the Club Sandwich is amazing.

[ShinzuMusic]

Will def head there soon! J'avoue que le Big Mike a l'air écoeurant xD
