  • I'm picky when it comes to french fries. I wouldn't call myself a snob, but I do like them cooked a certain way - golden brown and salty, with crispy edges and soft (almost soggy) centers. So when I read that Canada's national dish was basically a plate for french fries smothered in gravy and cheese curds, I got admittedly excited. And on the last day of my 4-day visit, I headed over to La Banquise for what's considered to be the best Poutine in town. I walked in around 3:00pm and the place was as packed as if it were peak lunch or dinner time. Lucky for me though, there was no line and I was seated immediately. The interior of the restaurant is cheerful and warm, with walls and seats painted in bright yellows, oranges and blues, exposed brick and artificial grass in some parts, and a ceiling covered in branches. There's also a nice little terrace in the back. The restaurant is lively with a wait staff that actually appear to like their job. The wonderful smell of fried-something was everywhere. The menu is a laminated book with an entire page dedicated to poutine. And there are a LOT of choices: the hot dog poutine topped with pieces of hot dog; the mexican with hot peppers, tomatoes, and black olives; the T-Rex with the ground beef, pepperoni, bacon and hot dog combo. Apparently you can get pretty creative with this dish. Somewhere in Montreal there is apparently even a restaurant that serves poutine with lobster meat. But since it was my first try, I decided to go simple and order the classic - fries, cheese curds, and the Canadian version of "BBQ sauce" (AKA, gravy). The fries were perfect - the cut, the color, the texture with the crispy edges and the semi-sogginess from the gravy. And the squeaky cheese in the center, nice and solid. The gravy was thin and just enough. It was all delicious and for 6.25, a great value for your money.
