There is only one place for Smoked Meat - Swartz's on St Laurant Street. It's an institution. Right out of the 40's. Don't get the lean smoked meat though, get the old fashioned. It's fatty, but what the hell.
Also Rue St. Denis is where there is a lot of things going on, as well as Crescent Street, and St. Catherine street (main drag) - if you are into strip joints, there's club Super Sex.
The Queen Elizabeth is my choice of hotel and if you haggle with them, you can probably get them to come down to a reasonable price.
Old Montreal is interesting as well.
Oh yeah, and Rue Prince Arther by McGill is a happening street too.
