I will take a healthy serving of Poutini's House of Pountine over a box of Smoke's any day... here's why:
- Not a chain (all about supporting local businesses)
- The cheese curds actually melt properly which leads to my next point
- The gravy is piping hot (so much so that by the time we were back in Scarborough, it was still warm)
- The pulled pork is actually tender and not all dried out
The wait is equally as long but you can taste the difference. Definitely my go-to place in Queen West! Totally loving the environmentally-friendly utensils and poutine containers too!
Con: CASH only.
