I first had a lox bagel here four years ago & fell in love. It was perfect. I travelled the world a fair bit over the last four years & have always been disappointed by other lox bagels that pales in comparison. Today I came back to Montreal & went straight to Caffè Mille Gusti to have a lox bagel & I was not disappointed! I'm not sure exactly what makes it so perfect - the bagel quality? The lox quality? The ratio of cream cheese to lox to bagel to capers to onions? All of the above? I yearn for these lox bagels when I am away 😭 & the owners are so friendly & lovely. My favourite Montreal gem.
Je suis entrée par hasard pour prendre un café & quelle chance !!! Le café était decilieux, & que dire des canollis farcis à la ricotta fraîche.... Le paradis gustatif !!! Servis avec le sourire & une sincère gentillesse sincère en plus. Arrêtez-vous !

Venez pour les cannolis, repartez avec le sourire ! Le propriétaire est très accueillant & les paninis sont préparés à la commande avec énormément de choix. Surtout, n'oubliez pas leurs cannolis'sans culpabilité', offerts en formats grand, moyen & mon préféré : le mini !

Go for the cannoli, leave with a smile! The owner is incredibly welcoming, & the paninis are made to order with so much variety to choose from. But don't forget your guilt-free cannolis-they come in large, medium, & best of all, mini sizes!
