Ottawa's Poutine Fest

I had no idea that Ottawa had not one - but two - Poutine Festivals. This is all news to me!








Apparently the fall one was so popular - they added a spring fest as well!











For those unfamiliar with "poutine" - it's Quebec's favorite fast food sold from a "chip wagon"... a fancier version of French Fries. Ottawans braved the cold and rain to stand in line for the best.





 



This is what it looks like: French fries covered with gravy with fresh cheese curds sprinkled on top! New flavors are sprouting up with these festivals. Soon original poutine will no doubt be called "classic." Call me old fashioned, but that's the one for me!
