Good poutine can be found on occasion in the west. Was at Art Wells a few years ago, and there was this Québécois couple in a food truck that did them so right. She was ramming spuds through the press and manning the deep fryer, and he managed the perfectly seasoned gravy over the fries, with real cheese curds. And in true Québécois fashion, right in front of his lady, he was propositioning every young lass that stepped up to the window. They couldn’t keep up with the crowd after the evening shows. They had a pulled pork topping option too.Quote:

Look…. I grew up in the east but have lived in the west for 20 years… We butcher poutine (and chicken wings out here but that almost needs its own thread)Quote:

And as you you say it’s about the curds… Imported curds are refrigerated and lose the squeak… In Quebec those fuckers are room temp and melt perfectly.
The coast has amazing food of all kinds but poutine (and chicken wings) are not it. If I offended anyone, sorry eh.
Damn. That's a long time.Quote:

Did you use a lawyer, and which path did you go down to be allowed into Canada?
Yeah, I know, I went to school in Stowe, was up there all the time. But I would rather bike in Squamish. Kevo, I will PM you with my lawyer info.Quote:

I used paddle with a quebecois who claimed a food truck in Hixon had the real poutine, Pierre said you must have the real cheese curds,Quote:

I don’t know his circumstances, so can’t say. But he would be doing some gambling to assume he could. If he tries and doesn’t get in, he can be denied for a much longer time. Tell him to do some research on his case. (Conviction, expunged, BAC, etc).Quote:
