I was “today” years old when I discovered poutine. I’d had fries with gravy before but poutine is much better! Where has this been all of my life?

Actually a bit of a fusion: birria poutine at the local Biergarten, SO GOOD!

    So obviously this is sacrilege and I would never suggest this to a Canadian IRL, but there are so many ways to make a poutine-inspired dish. Roast potatoes (cut into smaller cubes), onion gravy, some kind of sausage and brie (or your cheese of choice). I make it with roast dinner leftovers and it slaps.

      That looks really cool, but very far away.

      I went to a small local one in New England run by my local brewer. These guys have some great ideas so I really hope they succeed. They just started running it at a local historical estate.

      Unfortunately the day I was there did not have as many customers as they were probably hoping. Maybe sundays are light, I don’t know. It appeared to be the family day as we were the only ones without little kids, so that’s fantastic, but less the half the tables were in use

      I have to admit my first choice was the Korma, but this was late on a Sunday and they ran out of rice. They actually offered to serve the Korma over fries, but that’s just wrong

      That’s the weird part: New England. So near to Quebec. I’ve met so many visitors from Montreal especially. Ive read so many mentions online.

      Heck, my ex-grandmother-in-Law was French Canadian
