Hot-dog stands are amazingly rare in Montreal. Which is why it's so great to have one that so…read morereliably shows up almost every day from late spring to fall at the "Y intersection" on McGill campus (on the path leading from the Roddick gates to the Arts Building). This humble hot-dog stand (that's apparently called the Hot-Dog Mobile) has been around for the last 2 years, although the business itself is much older. The menu is simple: jumbo hot-dog (all beef, 3.25$) or polish hot-dog (a little more expensive and takes 5 min to cook). The rounded buns are nicely toasted without being dry, and the service is courteous and fast. The condiment station is clean and well stocked, with many types of sauce (but no mayo), along with sauerkraut, freshly chopped onions, olives, etc. Really nice to have as a quick food option, especially in that part of downtown!

Most take cards. I've tried many of them so far and haven't been disappointed. Seating is limited but since you're downtown, you will be able to find somewhere else pretty easily if it's full.

I went Tuesday evening when it was raining on and off and a lot of the vendors were closed. Other than that there's plenty of choices, even for dessert!

Roux is a food truck that serves up wraps, salad and poutine. The prices are in line with other…read morefood trucks. I was seriously craving something greasy so I went with the spare ribs poutine which turned out to be a smart choice. They put plenty of curds which is always something I like in a poutine. The fries themselves were well-seasoned and thick while the meat was very tender. They would have been quite good on their own too. My only complaint was that they garnished it with deep-fried onions that were cold. I think even if they had been hot they wouldn't have added much to the poutine as a whole.

ROUX comes from the collaboration of the Mile-End famous restaurant FABERGÉ located at 25 Fairmount west and Chef Eric W. Rice.

The pride of our truck is our fries but wait till you try our signature mouth-watering sandwiches, some of which will change monthly according to what is fresh and local .

We sat down on a gorgeous sunny October weekday at a picnic table he had in the back, and had one of the best meals of our whole trip. Pumpkin-lemonade that wasn't too sweet, roasted brussel sprouts, a zippy spiral cut squash salad, a cauliflower soup with coconut milk, and flatbread with beef kabob. All the vegetables were chosen from the farmer's market and then balanced perfectly into dishes that were competitive with one another-all stand out dishes. Kudos to this wonderful lunch and the man behind it.

Food: Really average ice cream, I think the fun part is really all the different toppings that you…read morecan add yo your ice cream. Here you find all your childhood favorite candies in addition to some unusual options as well. Play ahead, more than the taste it's rather a fun experience I would say Service: Staff are friendly and helps you to get the different toppings Value: Slightly overpriced, you are paying to get unlimited toppings (as much as your cup can hold, which is very limited due ice cream-cup size ratio) Ambiance: Located permanently as a stall in the old port at the end of McGill street on de la Commune. No seating, open counter, grab to go type. Get your ice cream and enjoy it somewhere nearby under the bright sun in the Old port.

This is such a small stand at Marché Jean-Talon! My mission…read morewas to find myself some lunch for $7,25 and under. I thought it would be a breeze but Jean-Talon has gentrified pretty quickly and it's just totally dubious to taste every fruit sample in the shopping alleys. I pretty much dismissed every food vendor as too expensive, offering something I found too common or just not really being lunch (olive and cheese shops etc..). And after running around in circles for 30 minutes, right at the market's intersection, a sign popped up: "Duck confit sandwich: $5"! Mission accomplished!! Just what I wanted: a sandwich is quick and easy, but duck is more of a gourmet kinda thing and under 7 bucks! Don't expect something too fancy,the sandwich is served in a little styrofoam box if you want to take it home. This is just a stand so you have to find yourself somewhere to sit. The sandwich is about 6 to 7 inches, made with white baguette bread. I'm not a big fan of baguette but it was incredible for dealing with the duck fat dripping everywhere. Brilliant!
