Poutine,* one of the best combos that ever came into existence. Thick cut fries, flavorful gravy and creamy, cheesy curd melting all over that business.
My friend and I were determined to try as much Poutine as possible during our short weekend in Montreal and when we saw the sign for Montreal Poutine during our walk through Vieux Montreal, we had to stop.
We were seated in the back patio, which was very pleasantly shaded with trees and the ambiance was bustling if nothing else. Our Poutine arrived with mushrooms and onions and a side of smoked meat for my friend. With two pints in hand, we dug in and it was good. Not spectacular, but pretty darn tasty.
All in all a great little pit stop on a meandering kind of day.
*not to be confused with Disco fries. It's all in the cheese, you know.
