Here's the story.
Monsieur Fernand Lachance owned a small restaurant in Warwick, Quebec which was called "Le Lutin Qui Rit". One day a customer entered the store and asked M.Lachance to make him sliced fried potatoes with gravy and cheese curds. M.Lachance called it nothing but pudding, a mess. This is where the word "Poutine" a mess, comes from. But the customer loved it.
Now Poutine was born! M.Lachance added Poutine to his menu and it became very popular. The customer ordered and M.Lachance created. The masterpiece of Poutine.
Poutine was invented in Quebec.
The Pour House in Short Pump has Poutine! They don't call it poutine but it's fries with cheese and gravy.
The only meat in poutine would be in the gravy. Poutine contains fries and gravy on top with melted cheese.
Yes. The recipe for poutine was created in Canada, in the province of Quebec. Poutine is basically french fries topped with cheese curds and gravy.
Poutine, a Canadian dish of French fries topped with cheese curd and sauce originated in the Quebec countryside.Some people say that it was begun by Jean-Paul Roy in Drummondville in 1964, others that it began by Fernand Lachance in 1957 in Warwick, Quebec. Fernand supposedly said ça va faire une maudite poutine ("it will make a damn mess"), and he might be right.
Technically Poutine is in french. It's a meal from French-Canada (Québec).
No, poutine is not a national food in Canada. I am Canadian, and I'm speaking for my folks. We, Canadians do really love poutine! It is very popular, but it is not national. For those who don't know what "poutine" is, it's fries with the topping of barbecue sauce (the real and Canadian one) with that squeeky cheese. It is so good! But back to the question: no!
No.
In my experiences, Burger De Ville in Mount Royal and Montreal Poutine in the Old Port.
No poutine is not very healthy since it consists of french fries, gravy, and cheese.
