You know how friends from out of town always ask "What is the best place to eat Poutine in Mtl?" And most of the time people will say "Go to La Banquise!", which ironically is right across from Ma Poule Mouillee. To that question I'd answer ditch the lineup and come wait here instead (yup, lines are long here too). But it's so worth it, trust me. First of all, they don't skimp on meat. It's probably equal parts roasted Portuguese chicken, chorizo and fries. Then there's the spicy sauce. And the San Jorge cheese. Heaven for poutine-a-holics.
I shared the Louis Cyr (half chicken +fries and salad) and small Poutine with my bf and we were so full afterwards.
Long lineups, but you can skip the line if you plan a bit ahead and order by phone. Small (10 tables at most) but turnover is pretty quick. If you're only here for the natas then skip the line and head straight to the pastries counter at the back. You won't be disappointed!
