after a delightful triple pork poutine [pulled pork, sausage + bacon] at smokes poutinerie, i got to thinkin'....

does the strut rep for the fries, gravy and curd? where's the secret squirrel spot?

Montreal heads stand up?
 
There is nothing greater then a favourite Chip Stand. So it was with tears in my eyes that I watched one of the greats burn to the ground last week..... RIP Jean Burger. Ottawa Poutte heads know the deal.
 
Poutine spots are on the rise in Toronto in a big way. At work we invented PouRings with one of the chip truck dudes on Campus. Onion Rings with curds and gravy. Death...








I remember Tony's eps in Quebec.





 
had poutine for the first time this weekend in Montreal





simply amazing





i went safe for the first time with the regular stuff. but my friends had it with bacon, pork and other crazy stuff





can you say perfect 3 am drunk food?

poutine is simple.





hand cut fries + cheese curds + gravy.





after years of that simple and delicious threesome, alot of poutine boutiques [poutiques?] have been popping up with new takes on the formula turning it into a meal onto itself. chicken curry poutine, meatball marinara poutine, veggie nacho poutine, prime rib poutine, duck confit poutine, etc....

not sure how i feel about all the extra ish. sure, i love bacon, but it's still almost always best simplified.


no need to get all experimental or yuppify it and charge 12$.


(however, the 20$ foie-gras poutine at Au Pied De Cochon is one of the best things ive ever eaten)
 
Not a gravy fan. I usually skip it even on Thanksgiving when my friends are going nuts about gravy and mashed potatoes.





So, when I was in Montreal I just got the fries, no curd no gravy.





We now have a poutine place in Portland, but there is too many other choices for eating, so poutine, like donuts get left off the list.
 
i've noticed a bunch of poutine joints popping up but they tend to be really expensive given the ingredients and the portions. a little while ago i had a craving and broke down for a 13 dollar one with "smoked meat" cubes that tasted like rubber.





for my money, best smoked meat poutine ever can be had here:
