Slammer58 Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 (edited) Happy Canada Day. My grand-père emigrated from Canada to the USA, so I'm part Canuckian. Never had any poutine...and pretty sure I'm gonna die without trying any! 🤐 Edited July 1 by Slammer58 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best I had was in Montreal at a place called 'La Banquise' - Poutine, fries-fresh curds-gravy with shredded smoked meat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethervox Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 I travelled from Montreal to Vancouver Island where I live. Tired, so now, vegging out. Sunny weather. A good day. 😀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfswetpaws Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 While I live in the U.S., I have French/Canadian ancestry. Poutine is worth a road-trip. Happy Canada Day. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Canada Day. 🙂 100% agree - Poutine in Montreal is about as good as it gets ! It made trips to Montreal (which were daily) worth all of the flying !!! Lunch, which was an "event," added about 10 pounds..... I seriously doubt I'll ever make it back there; but, we have a local French restraunt that severs......a close entry. Not the same or of the same depth of richness of what they made in Montreal, but close.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hipcanuck Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 For me, as a Canuck, poutine is over rated. The beer however, is not! The abundance of micro breweries that have sprung up in the last dozen years is amazing. One can find any flavour from 1% to 9% alcohol, from a regular sized can to a 1.5 liter mini jug 🙂 Although I gotta admit the 9% stuff is a little harsh and it comes in a 900ml can (almost a liter for you Americans). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. When I came over from the UK, I was expecting a howling wasteland on the beer front, populated only by unfortunate American 'beer'; happily I've been pleasantly surprised - as the post above attests, Canada has a pretty decent range of good and varied beer (and - I discovered the other day - you can even get Tim Taylor's Landlord here as well!)...
