Drop down and get your gravy on.
We asked you Canadians to tell us where to get the graviest and cheesiest poutine in our great nation.
NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM.
Alas, here are the best places in Canada to stuff your face with the perfect trifecta that is fries, gravy and cheese curds:
1. Belgian Fries — Vancouver, British Columbia
"Belgium Fries in Vancouver has the greatest poutine EVER. The fries are crispy, the gravy is thick, and the curds are massive. It is to die for."
— raiyaj
2. Whistle Stop Café — Peterborough, Ontario
"Whistle Stop in Peterborough, Ontario has the largest selection in Canada. Not an exaggeration, it is a confirmed fact. 100+ types and they are all so friggin' good!"

3. Ivan's Restaurant — North Bay, Ontario.
"They don't skimp on the cheese or gravy and they have tons of speciality poutines, from 'Philly Cheese Steak' to 'Stacker' (covered in onion rings). The portions are huge and fairly priced."

4. La Belle Patate — Canmore, Alberta
"It’s a dive bar in the industrial area, and run by a Montreal expat. Best poutine and smoked meat sandwich ever."
— rachelk45d6d3fa0
5. La Poutine — Edmonton, Alberta
"The owner is from Quebec so it’s about as authentic as you can get in this part of the country. Their Canadian poutine topped with bacon is to die for. Makes for great sober food as well as drunk food. They also have vegan options if you’re into that!"

— Megan Heather, Facebook

"Montreal's La Banquise will always be my #1 (a serious plus-side is that it's open 24hrs)!!"
— Yana Iossel, Facebook.
