Had read about Jerusalem Bagels, but never tried them before. So on my trip to Montréal, decided to…read morecheck out Bagel Fréna, of course not realizing that its neighborhood in Lachine was not just down the block from where I was staying in the center of town. Well, the adventure was worth it... enough that I returned a 2nd time on my trip! Bagel Fréna is a relaxed neighborhood spot specializing in these Israeli and Moroccan delights, resulting from its extremely friendly owner's cultural background. A corner location, its front windows were fully open allowing a light breeze to complement the warm, late summer air. The music fit the chill vibe. Jerusalem Bagels (a.k.a. Ka'ak or Simit) are flat, oval bagels coated in sesame. Mine had also green olives, perfect with Za'atar Hummus. To drink, I enjoyed their sweet Moroccan Tea made with fresh mint leaves, which reminded me of my time years back in Marrakech and Fez. On my next visit to Bagel Fréna in addition to another cup of that fantastic Moroccan Tea, I decided to try their Jerusalem Pita, also coated with sesame. This time, I filled the warm bread with Olive Cream Cheese and Moroccan Roasted Red Peppers. All flavorful and sensational! Can imagine Bagel Fréna would be a nice place to hang out with a friend or two, while you're eating or going for their Turkish Coffee. You'll find also shelves of games to play to pass the time. Definitely recommend checking it out!!!

I chose to have a piece from 3 different pizza; Vegetariano, Pomodoro, and a rosemary focaccia. the veg had large pieces of roasted veggies. looked beautiful but lacked seasonings, and that was a little disappointing. The Pomodoro with a very good thick dough which I personally prefer, again lacked seasoning and more garlic perhaps. unfortunate. The focaccia on the other hand, was much too salty. It had a good crust though, like the Pomodoro. I will give them another try and I'll get a pastry as well overall, a little disappointed but the problems can be easily remedied good luck
