| - I came a few weeks ago with two of my friends. The plan was to get poutine uptown, so I looked up poutine on Yelp. No one replied to my talk thread, but this place seemed promising, so we came. We ordered two philthy (think the largest size they have) poutines to split. We got the smoke show (smoked meat, mustard, pickle) for $13.99 and the perogie poutine (cheese perogies, sour cream, bacon, and sauteed onions ) for $14.99. They aren't the cheapest poutines, but they are massive. The three of us tried so hard, but we couldn't even finish one. We finished about half of each. They really load these boxes up.
The smoke show was less heavy than the perogie. Having the mustard and the pickles helped quite a bit. The periogies on the perogie poutine were the fluffiest perogies I've ever had, and they had at least six of them on the poutine. My favorite part of that poutine (other that the perogies) was the caramelized onions. Those were nice and sweet. I wonder if they'd let me do a perogie poutine next time with perogies instead of fries. Hm...
Service was quite friendly. I asked if we could try a few of their sauces. The girl at the counter got out a bunch of small plastic sauce containers, and squeezed them basically full of every sauce we wanted, and we wanted at least six or seven. We weren't charged for them either, and we very easily could have been. When I asked for a bag so we could take the leftovers home, the guy at the counter said that if he'd known it was only the three of us, he'd have told us to order less. That was a nice sentiment, whether it was true or not.
Next time I want a poutine fix uptown, I know where I'm going!
