| - I'm a big fan of poutine. Maybe it's my French Canadian roots, or maybe it's just that I can't think of anything better than the marriage of gravy and cheese curds. Either way, when I found out I had moved into a neighborhood that had a poutine restaurant, you better believe I made it a priority to visit.
My first attempt was a bust. She did acknowledge me when I walked in, but then disappeared to the back before taking my order. After nearly 10 minutes I decided to leave.
The second attempt, now that was a success all the way around. I decided to try one of their double burgers and a small regular poutine. Being a team member from Alberta Burger Fest, I definitely know my way around a burger. Although it wasn't the best I've ever had, it was definitely a lot better than other reviews would lead you to believe. The poutine, though, was excellent. I was worried that the portions might be small, but I was full after and that says a lot. The next day I went back and had their kimchi poutine. I wasn't as big a fan as I was the original poutine, but mostly because the fries were slightly undercooked. The flavors of the toppings were excellent.
Overall I really liked Fryday. If not for my first experience, this would have easily gotten a 4 star.
