10 lunch deals for $10 in Montreal

Wilensky’s Light Lunch - Established in 1932 when Mile End was a neighborhood of Eastern European Jewish immigrants, this nine-stool lunch counter persists as much for its nostalgic appeal as its culinary expertise. The de rigeur order is The Special - a sandwich with a slice of beef salami, a slice of beef bologna, and yellow mustard on a white roll. The only options are the addition of a slice of Swiss or cheddar cheese and a sour or half-sour pickle. It’s so cheap that you can wash it down with a vanilla or chocolate egg cream (no egg, no cream) and still get change from a $10 bill. 35 avenue Fairmount ouest, 514-271-0247, closed Sunday, The Special $4.28, egg cream $1.68
