The oldest bagel shop in Montreal is almost 100. Forgive it if it jumps on the social media bandwagon a little late.
But there Fairmount Bagel was, a week ago, on Twitter. The iconic Mile End shop has since amassed over 3,000 followers, thanks in no small part to a deluge of cheeky, hysterical and strange tweets.
It all began on November 26.
Fairmount Bagel is not a bagel it is a #lifestyle. A lifestyle with poppy seeds cream cheese salmon and #fresh #bagel #cool. Thank you.

Here's a shot at the bygone D.A.D.'s Bagels in N.D.G.
why do they call it DAD's Bagels. Because #Fairmount is older. You cannot be #older than your own #Dad

Fairmount Bagel is quite the hip hop fan, evidently.
Why would Kanye wait for Croissants if he could be getting #Fairmount #Bagels instead
