If you've ever lived in Montreal for a reasonable amount of time, you have been to La Banquise. This establishment is the king of Montreal poutine culture, the emperor of the poutine empire, the gladiator that leaves everyone else in the dust!
Why, you ask.. Why should such grandiose compliments be bestowed upon this institution? Well:
- Poutine has never seen so much variety! Mushrooms, peas, pepperoni, guacamole, you name it, they've got it as an option to put on their poutine. They have the largest and most delicious menu ever, that would get any poutine-lover riled up!
- It is open 24 hours!! YES, that means after those great nights out with friends, you can come and feed yourself some poutine!
- Their portions are so big they are meant to be shared! Eat yourself silly, guys!! You probably need it after all the partying you were doing prior to stumbling in here.
- They serve beer! Beer with poutine!! Thank god someone understands us!
La Banquise should not be missed at any costs, its a CLASSIC. If you havent been to La Banquise, please hang your head in shame! And then make plans to go there THIS WEEKEND!
30/30!! YA!!!!
