I love me some poutine. I've never made it myself, but its what I tend to order if I'm eating fast food. I had Harvey's poutine for dinnter just yesterday, matter of fact.
First time I tried it was in Montreal. They seem to sell it on every street corner there, and its all SO GOOD.

I will also say this:

Try using chicken gravy rather than brown gravy. Dixie Lee Chicken's poutine is probably my absolute favourite fast food poutine.

And stay the hell away from Burger King and McDonald's poutine. American chains have no clue how to do poutine right. Yech.

I made Poo-browns last night at about 4 am.

It's poutine, only I made it with hashbrowns instead of fries.

Just so you know, it's the best name for a food ever.

It's up there with the Kentucky Hot Brown:



They featured these on Throwdown with Bobby Flay last year. Every time he said "hot brown throwdown," my immature ass giggled like a six-year-old.

.....My roommates and I thought we invented that. Only we call it "hashbrown thing"
It goes great with HP sauce.

Alright. So. I've mentioned in other donair threads this little local place called Simply Donair. Well, I've mentioned how completely insane and overboard their donairs are. They also have a poutine menu. Me and the rookie decide to go there to eat. They have this thing called Donair Poutine. I'm curious and ask what's in it. The guy tells me that they make a large poutine but add in donair meat and any other donair toppings (they have a subway-esque array of toppings for the donairs) you wish to add. I decide that I've lived long enough and that I'm going to have one. It comes in a chinese foodish tin container about 8 or 9 inches across and 2 or so inches deep. It's a stack of fries mixed with slabs of donair meat and mushrooms with a layer of cheese curds, a massively thick layer of gravy and a layer of shredded mozza on top. The rookie had fresh tomatoes on his to make himself feel better about eating his, but I made no such concessions, I was waging a war with my health tonight.

It was insane. I was only able to eat maybe 2/3's of it before I felt like vomiting everywhere. I don't know who these Simply Donair people are designing their food for. I'm 6'3 and about 210 pounds and the rookie is about 6'1 and somewhere I'd guess between 190-200 pounds himself and we each have appetites to match. We're not exactly dainty flowers.

I'm about to go lie down now and fall into a diabetic coma. God have mercy on my soul.

I'm seriously eating nothing but fruit and salad for the next 3 days. I've never felt worse.

Yeah, sorry that I was raised on a steady diet of home grown vegetables and meat from my grandpa's farm and not on fried hell like you east coasters seem to have been. Madness.

Damn it Checkeredhat, you have the same avatar as one of the old Krypton Krew and it's really confusing me.

Everytime you talk about this "simply donair" place, I feel like I want to go somewhere to eat until I feel sick. It's like the desire to drink until puke.

They are not unusual cravings for me, though...

Honestly, I wish I'd have had the presence of mind to snap a picture for this thread and also one to send to that website This Is Why You're Fat.

Having kids, the surest way to lose your sarcasm detector.


BTW JCM, seems you disabled PMs, which you seemed not to know last time you where around.

I remember hearing "freedom fries" in high school for about 2 days. Then someone, I don't know who, must have told everyone they sounded like douchebags. Because after that, I never heard it again unless it was a joke.

I never got why "freedom fries" was chosen, anyway. Call them american fries, after all, you guys perfected it.
