1. Belgian Fries
Vancouver, BC V5N 4A6
(604) 253-4220

Now THIS is poutine. As I've said in other reviews, I make no claims to being an expert. But when I crave poutine, this is what I crave:
fresh, flavourful fries
delicious, hot gravy, generously applied
melty stringy cheese curds, distributed from top to…More »

Oh no! Leroy beat me to the punch! Mike M. very generously told me about this place a couple days ago and offered to hold off reviewing it if I wanted to check it out and go for the FTR (to add to my Tour de Poutine list). I went for dinner last…More »
