Designing a Food Destination: Montreal’s Recipe for Gastronomy Tourism
In this episode, we head to Montreal, one of North America’s most dynamic food capitals. Joined by Marie-Dominique Boucher, Interim Director – Destination Development and Financial Assistance Programs at Tourisme Montréal, we explore how gastronomy has become a cornerstone of the city’s tourism and identity.
From iconic comfort foods and world-class festivals to rooftop farms, urban agriculture, and international recognition from Michelin and the 50 Best lists, Montreal shows how food can connect cultures, animate public space, and shape a city’s future — all year round.
Whether you’re a city leader or a food lover, pull up a chair, listen in and discover what makes Montréal a Food Capital!
