| - Oh man, as a native Montrealer, boy do I ever miss a good poutine with lots of choices (La Banquise!). Smoke's Poutinerie is a pretty good substitute - especially the morning after to nurse a hangover! We got some take-out poutines - I had the large bacon poutine - let me tell you that this is massive. I am usually pretty good at devouring poutines, but I could only finish about half of this one. It comes in a container that is probably 8"Lx5"Wx4"H, and about 3/4 of the container was the traditional poutine, and then the last quarter on top was all covered in delicious crispy bacon. It made it on the salty side but you just have to get a bite of fries along with the bite of bacon and you'll be fine. I liked the fries, and the gravy is a lighter one, possibly chicken-based, which I like. Real curds are a must and while this place does use them, they were almost all completely melted by the time we got the poutines home, so I didn't really get any of that squeaky cheesiness that I love. Overall, awesome (for Toronto)!!
