Shame ! for Shame !
"" Montreal Smoked Meat is for all intents and purposes pastrami... ""
MHSM is nothing like Pastrami ,
but I had it several times a long time ago at Schwartz's in Montreal.
I thought it would be the same , but its not. now the current Schwartz's seems to be run by different hands , and Ive not been there
might be the same Rx. but can't say
Ive always been surprised that ive never had anything like HSM except in Montreal and at Schwartz's

NYC Katz's is very different.
