Poutine in Austin?

[actionman98]

For the uninitiated poutine consists of french fries covered in gravy and topped with cheese curds. I got hooked on it the last time I was in Canada, and I've been craving it ever since. I tired making it myself, but it's just not the same. Does anybody know of a place in Austin that serves it?

Frank's, Max's wine bar, Swift Attic.... It may not be authentic but if you miss it, those places serve it. It grew in popularity in Austin with CIA (Canadians In Austin). Probably some help from incoming Canadian Longhorn basketball players few years back.

I prefer poontang over poutine any time.

Bangers has a pretty good one, too. Heck, most everything is good at Bangers!

I remember getting some in Victoria, BC that had bits of fried salmon in it too. That was awesome! Best, though, was at Olympic Stadium in Montreal for an Expos game.

Bangers is closer.

I got some pretty awesome Poutine at the farmers market downtown last Saturday at the Dai Due stand. It was Sweet potato fries, cheese curds, chorizo, and venison gravy mmmm tasty

I'll have to check that out. The best I ever had was in Vancouver, B.C., and it had B.B.Q. pulled pork in it. I bet it was awesome with salmon in it too.

Damn, that sounds good.

Head over to Culvers, order some curds with your fries, and a side of gravy... Should be set.
