My father was a bagel baker in NY from Russia, in the 30s through the 60s. I worked in the bakery in the 50s doing odd jobs, and your methods look identically as I remember then way back when. Congratulations on keeping the traditions alive, I would love to visit Montreal and sample a "real" bagel.
How proud your grandfather would be of the continuing success and loyalty that Fairmount Bagels has and may it be so for many years more to come ....Congratulations 🌈👍
I have been coming to Fairmont throughout my whole life. Now I live in Boston and drive back "home" just to bring back ten dozen bagels across the Border. Now my sons are doing the same thing. The best bagels in the World!
That is true on the water. Our local Italian bakeries make wonderful bread, but everyone says if you try and make it outside of our area of NY the bread is not the same. It came down to the mineral in the water adding a certain flavor to the dough. Some say it's not true, but most agree...
For me I prefer the Fairmount bagels (some prefer the St-Viateur ones). But for the quality, sorry, for some years, it's is not always the same. Nowdays, Fairmount bagels have multiple POS through the Quebec province. The production has increase a lot. It's the normaliiy now to enter the shop and to see walls of bagels packages, ready to be sent. Of course this production increase came with a variable quality, with time.
On ne peut se dire réellement Montréalais sans être allé au moins une fois chercher ses bagels tout juste sortis du four au beau milieu de la nuit. On en achète une douzaine mais il est impossible de résister à la tentation d'en déguster un avant d'être rentré à la maison.
Arabs are excellent bakers, not to mention that they invented the grains and agriculture and writing and civilization and sophistication and spread it into the world.

It’s nice to preserve the process of making the original quality bagel of the your genius grandfather 👍
This guy is a natural born teacher
It’s something in his voice and way if explaining things
My grandpa also had a bakery (not bagel though) in Montreal, and my papa continued up to this day he's still working in bakery.
When in town I always make it to the Fairmount Bakery...un vrai classique...
Grew up eating bagel in Montreal. Everytime I visit I bring some back home but of course it not the same as a fresh out of the oven
The way he slung them in the basket.... but it was on the floor lol

I will never understand why anyone would eat any other 'style' of bagel than this.
Now, if they were only available outside the Montréal area... (like eastern Ontario)
What happen if we just bake the bagels without cooking them first in water?
What’s the workers heritage? Tamil?
Mon enfance dans le miles-end !
If I made these according to the process in the video and while living in the USA, would I still be able to call them Montreal Bagels?
You could call them Montreal-syle bagels.
Yummmmm! Yes please!
so cooll bagels
0:26 wtf?
What?

New York or Montreal.
BEnGALi Begal!
I’m an old lady, ate bagels my whole life……I don’t like bagels cooked with honey…..
Montreal water taste like swimming pool.
They're made the same way... except Indian, Pakistani and Central and South American style now...nothing is the same way. Duh !
St Viateur bagel. Yeah.
Not to be judgemental but the Kids in the Hall's humor has only gotten dryer and dryer over the years.
They don't know how meka bagel,
Funny because it's here in Montréal yet the place has nothing but arab people in the kitchen.... Not really typicaly made by us 🤣🤣
Arabs are excellent bakers, not to mention that they invented the grains and agriculture and writing and civilization and sophistication and spread it into the world.
They are clearly Indians not Arabs. Ignorant fool.
Brooklyn bagels is the best.
No gloves, Don't eat.
it's baked dude
Gloves =/= Cleanliness. People wash their hands less while wearing them, and these are baked. Dumb comment.
They wash hands & they are also baked. No issues here
mcdonalds employees dont use gloves either lmao
