First day in Quebec, got this from Chez Ashton
I've been craving poutine for MONTHS and let me tell you this did not help. Looks so good.

what's stopping you?!
This is so good. Only ever had it once when I visited Canada, and I've been wanting it again ever since!
Beautiful🤌🤌🤌
Wowwww that looks fantastic! I still think about the poutine 4 years after visiting Quebec. My area is not known for its cheese curds, so it’s a painful experience trying to find poutine around here! I’m still mad at this one place nearby that swore up and down that it was authentic Quebecois only to have shredded mozzarella cheese on its poutine!
that's infuriating!!
For authentic poutine, it has to be curds! St-Albert preferrably.
Nothing beats the s q u e a k
Living near Quebec has ruined me for poutine, now I'm back in the GTA I can't find a reliable spot that can make a good classic poutine.
Not to be a poutine snob, but I hope those curds melted, even the best places sometimes have curds or gravy that's too cold and doesn't melt properly!
If anyone in the GTA has a good traditional poutine spot please let me know. There's some good shawarma poutine floating around, but the only reliable classic poutine I have found is Swiss Chalet. I usually get traditional gravy and chalet sauce on the side for dunking
I find the best places for poutine tend to just be the chip trucks around my place. Easier to get things right when poutine is like 75% of your sales I guess lol
top ones didnt but the the ones below the top layer of fries definitely did
Those curds!!!! <3
Make sure you get some steamies while you're there!
