Really?
All this time I have been eating Montreal style hotdogs.
Except for a few street venders, everyone steams the hotdogs here. I guess it is cheaper? They're pretty boring, to be honest. The only difference is they don't have coleslaw. I imagine people here would find that weird. You can definitely tell the hot dog is steamed because it is like eating meat pudding in a tube instead of a sausage. It tastes better than microwaving it though. My brother loved microwaved hotdogs when he was a kid. They're fucking disgusting. Vienna sure got the short end of the stick when God doled out which cities got which sausages.
There is a poutine place here called Poutine Planet. I don't think it makes any reference to Qurbec.
