Poutine!

    A Québecois delicacy: French fries, gravy, and cheese curds. Just the junk food one craves after a hard morning of skiing. It can be found nearly everywhere in Whistler, and so I had it nearly every day. Yum yum yum. (It's probably a good thing that I can't find it here in New York.)

      The next time you come to Montreal, go to the restaurant Le Pied de Cochon and try the Poutine au foie gras. They say it's very good :-)

      Actually you can find it in NYC... Unfortunately for me, it's not possible in Central Pennsylvania!

      A poutine that come with truffles... chocolate truffles or mushrooms? Hum... Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised there's one that comes with truffles (the mushrooms). The Le Pied de Cochon web page is www.restaurantaupieddecochon.ca

      This makes me hungry just looking at it. Too bad I have to limit myself to it once every six months, after a serious regimine of working out before and after. Take only under a doctor's supervision!

      wow, 1st time I've seen this food. (I saw this pic in the "Graduation" topic in the Views 900 group) When I saw the small-sized pic, I thought the gravy was syrup.

      Holy crap! Yet another reason to visit Canada.

      I grew up in central Illinois where the horseshoe sandwich reigns supreme. Texas toast, a meat of your choice (I always favored bacon), a piled of fries on top and cover the whole thing in cheese sauce.
