We took a large one to share with bacon (CAN$13) - everyone is sharing large portions, it's way less expensive than ordering 2 small portions. We knew what to expect (aka not a culinary orgasm) but we were a bit disappointed - that poutine tasted... cheap. \n\nWe then (not the same day!) tried the chicken and chorizo poutine from Ma Poule Mouill\u00E9e, and I would totally recommend going there rather than at La Banquise - fries are better, meat is better, sauce is better and cheese is better (do you see some kind of pattern here?)\n\nSo all in all, I understand the convenience of a 24/24 poutine spot, with plenty of poutine variations to choose from, but if you want a good poutine, there are better spots in Montreal..."^^ . . .
