Hi, from Canada, one of my favourite dishes is poutine. I'm not Quebecois but I still love poutines, and yeah it is VERY difficult to find a restaurant that doesn't serve poutines unless it's a specific culture like Burrito Boys or Taco Bell. If your ever in Canada, one of the best fast food poutines you can get is probably some of the special ones they have at Harvey's (a Canadian burger chain), the one near me makes them perfectly.
@@Yeshanuagree NY Fries makes it best, I’d rate Harvey’s secondary to NY. Of course poutine from a dedicated place that uses room temp curds and real gravy will top any fast food joint.
I'm from Quebec and I love "faillit" poutines. I discovered this in Gaspésie. It's like it almost became a pizza but it's still a poutine: sautéed pepperoni, onions, peppers, and mushrooms on top of a classic poutine.
so the reason he's pronouncing it that way is because he's speaking English and that is the English pronunciation of the word. I'm sure he understands French since he's from Montréal
Yeah, something like "poo-teen" is the standard English pronunciation, even for Canadians (at least outside of Quebec). English and French share many words, often spelled identically, but the pronunciations are usually quite different. In general, it sounds weird -- possibly pretentious or humorous depending on the context -- to slip French pronunciations into spoken English when there's a perfectly good English pronunciation available.

Growing up in Newfoundland, Canada: the big thing was fries with gravy & "dressing". Dressing is kind of like a dry turkey stuffing, bread crumbs seasoned with summer savory. 😋 I now live in Alberta there's one food truck locally that makes "Newfie fries". Really helps whenever I feel a little homesick.
I remember drunkingly stumbling out of the club into a shady diner at 3:00 AM and getting myself and my friends a warm poutine to help us sober up. Those were the good times... - ❤, from Québec !
Then everyone around you is incredibly wrong. Its Kay-Beck. I know learning french and asking of a country that claims to be bilingual to actually be bilingual is hard, but at least don't butcher the name.
I am Canadian. It’s wildly popular in Quebec. Outside of there it is available but it’s not that popular. I’ve worked in many restaurants and none of them have ever served poutine.
Idk but in Ontario basically every restaurant sells them. I was recently at a concert in Toronto and they had a literal poutine truck inside the venue. There’s a "poutinerie" restaurant down the street from me. I’d it’s pretty popular here. Even McDonald’s has a poutine lol
The popularity of poutine in Quebec and the rest of Canada isn't remarkably different. The guy is correct in saying that it's hard to find a restaurant that serves french fries and doesn't have poutine.
Gas station cheese curds are a thing in the midwest in the states. I'm not gonna divulge the amount of times I've indulged, mostly cuz I've lost count 😂
We are quite fond of chips and gravy in the UK too. We normally add mushy peas on the side, but you can add some sausages too to make what we call a sausage dinner. Some heathens will even take a fish supper (battered fish, chips and peas) and cover it all in gravy
Fries and gravy without the cheese is good... But it doesn't compare to poutine... Do your neighbor from across the pond a favour and go buy some nice English cheddar (cathedral cheddar is good) and crumble it up into chunks then put it among piping hot gravy and fries and give it a go. Considering I've just thought of this now, I'm going to try this specific version of poutine soon as well and will report back-thanks, a Canadian
Putting a tiny sprig of parsley on a completely brown plate of food is always so funny to me. It feels like a person going, "and.... *now* it's healthy!"
Being stuck in a different country, not having access to money or good mental health, I really miss having the simplest pleasures of food that made life worth living.
The fact that he cleaned the plate at the end made me laugh so hard. Like you have this mountain of fries and sauce and you clean the border of the plate.😂😂😂😂 Nice video anyway!
I’m not from Canada but I am from upstate NY and it’s fairly popular here as well, especially places that border Canada like Buffalo and the Adirondacks. The #1 food truck in Rochester is a poutine food truck and they close their season by selling hundreds of quarts of their vegan gravy, it’s better than 90% of gravies I’ve had idk how they do it. In recent years they’ve also opened a restaurant that’s open year round.
To me that's a perfect explanation for a poutine. I typically will get an authentic poutine but if i haven't eaten ill get a more loaded style. Espiecially if the portion seems to be smaller
I'm a Canadian. Born and raised in Alberta and BC. I had never even heard of Poutine until my thirties when i lived in the states. I have still not tried it but when i find a restaurant that serves it, I will.
I went to Toronto once and found poutine by accident. It was during the start of January in the coldest day of the month and my first contact to heavy snow fall. That day was so cold for me that I could barely stand walking to the restaurant I used to go and entered the first place I could find to harbor myself from the weather. A man on the balcony instantly asks me what do I want, to which I clumsily reply: "cheese burger" as it was the first thing I read on a huge menu on the wall. I watched this man preparing it and was definitely not understanding what was happening. It didn't took me too long to realise it was an unknown for me local dish with "cheese burger" flavour instead of an actual burguer, but I didn't care, anything to get away from the cold. Suffice to say I came back countless times during my 2 week stay. The concept is so simple I do not understand how it is not worldwide popular. Anyway, it is really a legendary dish that save me that day.
I had it once at a little road side diner next to a gas station in central Alberta while transiting the Alaska Highway in June 2020. It was quite good - something I hope to try again some day.
Being Canadian, Ive had sooo many different versions of poutines! However… if I had to choose my favourite (aside from my homemade ones), it’s going to be a tie between Harvey’s poutines (love their gravy!)… and Kentucky Fried Chicken’s version (which is their famous gravy and cheese curds). LOVE IT!! ❤️😊🇨🇦
Went to uni at Concordia in downtown Mtl. A big plate of poutine with your best friends at 2am after a night on the town, minus 20 degrees outside, absolutely some of the best times of my life.
Aroostook County Maine here, Canadian border. Been eating poutine in 6 separate decades at this point... as long as it has cheese(not even necessarily curd), gravy and fries it is poutine, no matter what else you want to add to or what meat is used to make the gravy. They are all enjoyable. Made one with seafood and a hollandaise sauce infused with seafood stock instead of gravy. Incredible.
Netherlands have our own version of that and it depends on region, person and other factors what you get. It's generally very similar, but for example: depending on where you ask it comes with hot sauce or not, it is vegetarian or not, it comes with some sauces or with some others.. It can mean a LOT of things, but it always means satisfying a certain craving at a certain point in time, and it's great!!
They even make a shelf stable version for their troops. Its called an IMP, their version of a US MRE. It isn't a great menu because it lacks the crispyness but still cool that it's made.
It looks delicious, not going to lie. I would love that one you made in this video. I am American and have never had pouting, but I really want to try it. 😅
The best poutine i ever ate was when i worked in a high end restaurant and one of the cooks asked me what i would like to eat. I just asked for a poutine with bacon, so that's what he made but he used a gravy made with a red wine stock and it was simply incredible.
I’m from Canada and haven’t seen poutine in a couple years. It’s been so long that the last time I remembered eating it was when I was a child at a skiing mountain.
I’ve been to Quebec before, specifically Montreal, and your poutine is probably the saltiest food I’ve ever eaten. 😂 It’s good don’t get me wrong but it definitely gave me my weekly recommended salt intake in one meal. Hell I’ve had ramen broths that were less salty!
In our country we do a variation with a base of french fries covered in ground beef. On top of that you add catsup and mayo in swirls with a squeeze bottle and then you cover it all with a bunch of melted cheese( Gouda, or mozzarella depending on quality) we call it Yaroa. Look it up.
This is an excellent concept! I had the dish once and was very displeased because the gravy was terrible but with the right gravy,curd and fry combination ,poutine is delicious.
As a southern dutch person where we have chips topped with beef stew, poutine sounds like it would be very good. We also have chips topped with many differen sauces and combinations, but if you're in the south or in Belgium, get yourself some "friet stoof" from a place that cuts their own fries.
Me and the wife 1st heard about them in Burlington Vermont, tried em there and OMG! They’re so good. Hard to find them in New Hampshire but sometimes we just buy cheese curds and make our own at home

Netherlands have our own version of that and it depends on region, person and other factors what you get. It's generally very similar, but for example: depending on where you ask it comes with hot sauce or not, it is vegetarian or not, it comes with some sauces or with some others.. It can mean a LOT of things, but it always means satisfying a certain craving at a certain point in time, and it's great!!
Yes as a Canadian, its good bro
As a Canadian i love it 100%
They even make a shelf stable version for their troops. Its called an IMP, their version of a US MRE. It isn't a great menu because it lacks the crispyness but still cool that it's made.
Never let authenticity be the barrier to a damn good meal.
I had this for the first time ever a few weeks ago in Toronto! Man I bought it twice at McDonald’s!! Love itttttt
We once had truffle fries poutine at a high end steak house in Niagara Falls. Spectacular.
It looks delicious, not going to lie. I would love that one you made in this video. I am American and have never had pouting, but I really want to try it. 😅
The best poutine i ever ate was when i worked in a high end restaurant and one of the cooks asked me what i would like to eat.
I just asked for a poutine with bacon, so that's what he made but he used a gravy made with a red wine stock and it was simply incredible.
Next time I feel like my dinner is unhealthy I have to remember to sprinkle beef on it
I’m from Canada and haven’t seen poutine in a couple years. It’s been so long that the last time I remembered eating it was when I was a child at a skiing mountain.
I’ve been to Quebec before, specifically Montreal, and your poutine is probably the saltiest food I’ve ever eaten. 😂
It’s good don’t get me wrong but it definitely gave me my weekly recommended salt intake in one meal. Hell I’ve had ramen broths that were less salty!
Love how he tried to make it look fancy when it looked a dog took a dump on the plate.
In our country we do a variation with a base of french fries covered in ground beef. On top of that you add catsup and mayo in swirls with a squeeze bottle and then you cover it all with a bunch of melted cheese( Gouda, or mozzarella depending on quality) we call it Yaroa. Look it up.
This is an excellent concept! I had the dish once and was very displeased because the gravy was terrible but with the right gravy,curd and fry combination ,poutine is delicious.
As a southern dutch person where we have chips topped with beef stew, poutine sounds like it would be very good. We also have chips topped with many differen sauces and combinations, but if you're in the south or in Belgium, get yourself some "friet stoof" from a place that cuts their own fries.
Even in NB, curds are everywhere. Don't forget the poutine specific restaurants where you have a variety of topping options.
It’s also popular in the American states of Washington, Idaho, & Montana
I love when kabob/Donaire/shawarma places have poutine. So good with the meat added on and the special sauce
Meat is like butter or cheese it makes everything better!!! That looks delicious
“We even have cheese curd packets in our convenience stores!” So does the Midwest
If you think Poutine with some ground beef isn't "authentic" then seeing italian Poutine might actually give you a heart attack.
As an American poutine and heavy metal is what I love most from Canada.
Me and the wife 1st heard about them in Burlington Vermont, tried em there and OMG! They’re so good. Hard to find them in New Hampshire but sometimes we just buy cheese curds and make our own at home
Ngl this shit looks good, gonna have to come up and try some
