The Canadian half

Poutine, done properly

Fries, gravy, cheese curds. Ask for mozzarella instead and nobody will mind — plenty of people do.

Putting shawarma on top of it is not how anyone does it in Montreal. It is, more or less, the entire idea here.

  • Original Poutine$9.99

    Fries under gravy and cheese. Nothing else needed.

  • Chicken Poutine$11.99

    Gravy and cheese over fries, with chicken piled on top.

  • Beef Poutine$13.99

    The same, under beef shawarma.
