Gvina Levana or Quark cheese?

Surprised there's no Montreal thread on this - anyone know where to find Israeli cheese or something like it (Quark) in Montreal?

I haven't looked yet, but I'm assuming it likely won't be found at a place like Fromagerie Atwater or the like. I haven't seen it when I've been there. I'm assuming a Jewish or kosher store would be the way to go. (Previously, in Toronto, I could find it at, for example, Loblaws in the kosher section - but I'm lost as to what an equivalent location in Montreal might be...) Any help is appreciated!

    um - perhaps Loblaws in the kosher section? Try the one on Cavendish and St. Jacques.

      I don't know if it is for baking but the 'bulk cheese' by Liberty is also used for blintze stuffing and pierogi stuffing....it is a very thick cheese and can be bought anywhere

        They have Israeli quark at the IGA on Cote-St-Luc Rd, as well as lots of other kosher dairy products.
