I must confess that I've been led astray by additional poutine toppings, heaped onto salty fries and gravy and cheese curds, most of the time eaten at 2am after a night out. But after the glitz and glam of these specialized poutines faded, I ate it less and less and forgot about my love for the beautiful trifecta of curd, potato, and gravy.
Poutini's has resurrected my poutine love and it has been resurrected as a purist. There's something about the curds that is so delicious and the right amount of salt and flavour. The fries are great (crispy and golden) and the gravy was rich and not too heavy. Best poutine in the city!
