| - If you're looking to satisfy your drunken stupor and you just so happened to be in downtown Toronto, you have to come down to Poutini's House of Poutine.
Yes, I know it probably sounds like absolute blasphemy to speak of poutine outside of Montréal because they do it best, but damn it, I hate Montréal because of their snobbish attitude but do I want their poutine. Well, I don't have to worry anymore.
They keep this place open just long enough for your to stumble out of the nearby clubs and bars to fix your munchies quick. When you come out of the bar or whatever place is kicking you out, your eyes will be tired but your stomach will be awake. Just follow your nose and you'll find this place to be a shiny beacon of light where zombified patrons stumble in.
There's really not that much in terms of seating (well, really standing but space really) and it's a cramp space so if it's raining outside or it's cold as hell, be prepared to get cozy with your neighbors (I know I did and my cousins and I swapped stories with a couple of girls for a good 20 mins so it's not a bad thing).
I've been here a few times and pretty much tried all the different kinds of poutine they got on hand and must say that they're all good. But the one I like the most was The Works and the Bacon Poutine. Toss in a healthy dose of Sriracha and you've got a popping party in your mouth.
Oh, this place is cash only so make sure you have cash or you don't mind using the ATM (with fees) that's there but the times I've gone, the ATM was down half the time so I would just have enough cash on hand. Their menu is online and so are the prices so if you're just going to get one for yourself (and it's a generous portion) I'd say having $10 cash should get you most of what you would want as far as one poutine item goes. Otherwise, bring a few extra bucks. Or share.
Let's see... parking sucks (but you shouldn't be driving if you come here anyways) and yeah, there could be a long line.
Parking: Limited paid street parking
Price: $
Wait: 5 mins
