| - Presiding over a street corner on the outskirts of downtown, Smoke's Poutinerie churns out a smorgasbord of Canada's national treasure to its never-ending flow of fans.
The Triple Pork Poutine, which is more jam packed with fillings than any Monday morning train, features saucy and tender pulled pork, intensely seasoned and moderately crispy bacon, and an abundance of carrot-top coins of juicy sausage. The slightly soggy fries struggle to maintain crispiness beneath the mounds of meat, salty puddles of gravy, and cheese curd curls, but the teeming meat to potato ratio is unassailable.
With only a small, window-facing counter available for dining in and the door opening intermittently to allow a fresh breeze penetrate the oily air inside, veteran customers with admirable self-control take orders to go, while the starving huddle with elbows touching like hyenas gathered at a scavanged find and dive right in.
