Rampau, not sure if this is traditional but gratin is VERY french, and Montreal is the most French of the Canadian cities so it must be a reasonable specialty. Though the recipe came from a transplanted Italian rather than a Francophile…

I was in Montreal recently for a few days, in the middle of a blizzard. Is this a traditional Montreal specialty? Just like their smoked meats? Just wondering.

Mila, it’s the March issue of Gourmet. A must have if you are headed to Montreal! Ana, you can get frozen raspberries at Santis Delicatessen.

Is it the Feb or March copy of Gourmet? I’m planning a trip to Montreal in May and need some ideas. Thanks!

Hi MM! Your gratins are mouth- watering… Would you know where I could get raspberries? I just love the Mcdo yoghurt with the assorted berries. I wish they have it here. I also love this cake I had in Olive Garden with raspberries in it. Sigh…
