Poutine - Mission Accomplished

Its on the menu at Gordon Ramseys Foxtrot Oscar in London. I made a mission out of it, as its bloody impossible to find real poutine outside of Canada as I've discovered (although I think I saw a poutinery being constructed somewhere near Rivington street in new york.)

Anyway I can confirm its delicious.

Now I need to step my poutine game up and figure out a way to try the wilder variations. Real cheese curds yall - and yes, they were squeaky.

    Congrats dude! My stomach still dreams of the Poutine I had in Vancouver two years ago. Closest thing I can get in my neighborhood is Japanese Curry Cheese Fries which are pretty damn bomb, but really just a substitute.

    Had Poutine for lunch today... am curious that it's being exported to NY, always thought that would be a good idea.

    The latest version of poutine I had a couple of months ago was in deepest darkest Quebec. It was called a Guidene or some shit: Fries topped with rotisserie chicken, canned peas, st Albert's cheese curds and gravy . Basically a chicken dinner w/ cheese. Yum.

    Thanks man! These Poutinistas need to start a worldwide franchise and spread the gospel, eh.

    Didn't know about that and I've been there a few times. Will have to try this poutine thing.

    really unless u r at a place that has decent gravy, poutine is gross... tho the diesel poutines w/ hot dogs n bacon n pepperoni are great when yr drunk...

    good job, now go get yourself some carne asada fries...
