| - I had high expectations. After all, it's Montreal, it's poutine, it can't and shouldn't go wrong. On the menu board there were about 8-10 poutine combos the restaurant put together. I ordered "the Chorizo" and "the Nacho" combos, or at least I though I did. "The chorizo" was salty and dark tasty with loads of cheese. Very greasy but that's kind of expected with chorizos on top. However "the Nacho" turned out to be something else, not what I ordered. It appears to be "the Pogo" because it's got cut up Pogo pieces on it, but the rest didn't match what the menu said. It is pickled cabbages/coleslaw. Very disappointing. I would not have ordered this (who wants to eat Pogo/hotdog when there's superior choices to be had?) The cabbage made it smell funny and gave a slightly bitter aftertaste. Not a hit with my kids at all. Before we dug in, the lady at the cashier did offer to change it, but I had distributed it amongst the children already. I should've taken up her offer had I known it would taste like this. Oh well. I think I still prefer the good ole poutine, the traditional kind. You know, just a bed of crispy fries, topped with cheese curds and slathered in some hot meaty brown gravy mess. (Yup, Willie's in Halifax, I'm looking at you.)
