| - I could have written in French but I've decided to do it in English for tourism (if tourists read this).
Duuuuuuude I normally don't write great reviews on "5-Star Ratings" restaurants as I've called many of them "overrated"... (I'm only active on TripAdvisor though).
But I just can't give "Chez Ma Tante" any lower than 5 stars for fast foods... First of all, I expected the place to not have any table to eat (thanks to other reviewers) so I was not disappointed. It is how it's supposed to be. As I arrived there, I saw two old men behind the counter, with absolutely no TV, no music, no radio, NOTHING. LOL! It was plain silence. I wasn't sure if those two would be able to serve great foods with such a dead depressive atmosphere. Either way, I should not be there to judge the kitchen and the employees (unless I'm pissed at their service). Their service was warm and welcoming. They remember your orders as they keep repeating them (they may be old but they still have good brains!). The menus are simple as hell. I don't think there's any combo... You just make your own combos with such simple menu. I did not see any Interac or Credit Card machine so thank goodness I brought cash. It closes everyday at 1AM... WOW... Perfect! I know where to go now late at night since it's close to home! Anyway, back to the taste of the foods. I ordered some hot dogs and poutine (obviously take outs). I went back home and they're all still HOT! Poutine still hot enough to burn my mouth! NICE! I don't remember the last time I ate such a delicious steamed hot dogs! I guess this place is really the best for their HOT DOGS! And then there's the poutine... It's a very good poutine! Maybe not the best in Québec province but I could personally put it among the top 10 in Montreal city! The part that amazed me the most was not really the cheese curds nor the sauce (though they're pretty good and classic to how real poutines should traditionally be)... but the FRIES... The FRIES stood up the most among those three if you are the type to love home made fries. If the poutine had the best cheese curds and best sauce, this poutine would be my number 1 in PROVINCE (and in THE WORLD, obviously). Still, I love what I just discovered. It's a well deserved 5 stars.
