[...] I ordered tourtière, a traditional ground pork pie recipe that shows its age by having been originally made with now extinct passenger pigeons. The pie was both flaky and filling without being greasy and doused liberally in ketchup (as tradition demands) it was perfect comfort food for a rainy afternoon. Frenchies makes 5 kinds of poutine – classic, smoked meat, bacon, chicken, and Italian sausage – so I subbed in a classic in place of my French fries. Sadly, it was not as good as the tourtière. The cheese curds were still cold and there was not enough gravy soaking the fries. The gravy was exquisite, however, not too salty. Thoughtfully Frenchies includes side dish of it and, poured over the poutine, it came out pretty well although I still prefer the poutine at Belgian Fries. [...]

LOL! I would only recommend that if you think you can outrun the mongrel dogs…
