Since 1959, Les Aliments Felix Mish has quietly held down its corner of Ville-Émard with a split identity: part Polish grocery, part neighbourhood deli. The shelves are packed tight with imported preserves, chocolates, and spice blends, but the real draw is what comes out of the smokehouse. Run by Ron Mish—who took over from his father Felix in the ’80s—the shop now rotates through a global selection of housemade sausages, from Greek loukaniko to spicy Mexican chorizo. Still, it’s the smoked meat sandwich that makes this place something special. No steamer, no shortcuts—just seven to ten days of marination and slow-smoking that coax a depth of flavour most delis only dream about. It’s thinner-sliced, lower-stacked, and somehow bolder than the steam-bloated versions elsewhere. Mish’s smoked meat has fed everyone from Bell Centre headliners to regulars from the pool or the skating rink down the block. No gimmicks. Just craft.
