| - Amazing place. I have been here both for breakfast and dinner. First, let me start off with the dinner. I had, of course, a poutine. And I had, of course, the T-Rex. Why? Why not! It is a mountain of meat on a poutine! While they do not skimp on the meats, they did skimp a little on the cheese curds. Therefore, you might want to ask for some extra cheese curds. But overall, it is amazing. And yes, the pictures posted on Yelp are a true interpretation on how insanely over-the-top their poutines are!
But one of the real gems of this place is their breakfast. Just a warning, if you go on the weekend, they don't start serving breakfast until 7 AM (hard for us early birds, and no, I am not 87 years old). Just like their poutine, their breakfast is over-the-top as well as reasonably priced. I had three eggs, three strips of bacon, two sausage links, toast, French toast, homefries and some type of spread that is big here in Quebec (have no idea what it is called), with a coffee and orange juice for only $12 total. And, again, the portions are huge. While everything was great with the breakfast, I recommend the French toast.
I highly recommend La Banquise for either breakfast or dinner. You leave happy...and full!
