I have always wanted to try poutine ever since I heard about them years ago. While staying in Kensington, I was desperately looking for a place that had it and then I saw that Fresco's Fish and Chips had a menu with it.
So poutine is chips (fries) with gravy and cheese curds on it. It's pretty straight forward and after I had my first bite, it was super good. It's pretty much what I expected it to be and I was happy I was right. The chips were nice and crispy, the gravy tasted really good, and I loved the little pieces of cheese (they melted a while later and made it even better). I got the small size and it was actually pretty big and I couldn't even finish it so they make good portions.
The staff were super friendly. The guy taking my order was helpful and helped me pick the kind of poutine I wanted (there were some other types with meat or mushrooms). It was definitely an experience and I'm glad I got to have it here.
