You've seen the sign, you've peeked through the window. You've asked time and time again "When is the Big Cheese going to open?" Well my friends, I have an answer for you. Today! And it's a hot little spot.
It's in the same place as the old Nellie's, so be prepared for limited seating. 9 tables in all, it's a cozy wait when it's busy. But turnover seems pretty fast so far, so your wait shouldn't be too long!
Sporting a menu of 21 different kinds of poutine, these cheesy dishes of potato gravy goodness fall into 5 different categories-traditional, chicken, pork, beef, vegetarian and the all custom built! Oh, but which to try first? My eyes skim the menu like an excited mouse in a cheese pantry.
After much deliberation, I decide on the Notorious P.I.G. (Carolina pulled pork, double smoked bacon and Italian sausage), although after pigging out on poutine during yesterday's Poutine Crawl, I opt for the smaller $7.99 portion. Good choice, Wendy, good choice. It comes in a takeout box. And it's a large portion on its own. Smothered in gravy, cheese curds and with pockets of spice.
