This place is not just an incredible eatery, but also holds a spot in Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois pop culture history as the setting of Yves Beauchemin's novel Le Matou. \n\nThis charming joint has been around for over 30 years, making a name for itself (just as the name suggests) with Montreal's finest baked beans. Now, if you've ever been to a cabane \u00e1 sucre, you'll know that traditional bine are cooked for hours in a deep casserole, using some kind of magical grease. Not sure what wizardry this place used to perfect their art, but they definitely tick off both of the previously discussed requirements. \n\nAs for the rest of the food, you pretty much can't go wrong. Traditional Qu\u00e9becois, stick to your ribs fare that always leaves you satisfied. From early breakfast to late lunch, you're pretty much guaranteed to leave with a smile. \n\nPeople go on about Montreal smoked meat and bagels, but you haven't truly indulged in the city until you grab une bonne bine.
