| - We were on a mission to get poutine, a must-do before leaving Canada. We had just about given up and decided to simply get Mediterranean food for lunch, but were pleasantly surprised to find that Sarah's Sharwerma offered the Canadian treat! So we ordered a large portion of poutine to accompany our chicken and falafel wraps, a meal for two totaling ~$20. I was slightly disappointed because they use cheese shreds instead of cheese curds which is the authentic style, but you still can't really go wrong with the combo of fries, gravy, and cheese, amiright? I was further reassured that it was an adequate representation of the Canadian dish when two students walked in and each had a large plate of poutine for themselves, seemingly as a square meal. The poutine was very salty and caused us to be thirsty for the rest of the day, so maybe the fries don't need to be salted considering the toppings are sodium-heavy. The wraps were good, though I couldn't really detect much falafel, only chicken. I wish they put more hummus in there, too. As tourists, we knew that coming to the UT campus would be a smart choice, with lots of ethnic foods at college student friendly prices.
