All My Little Ladies Eating Up The Gravy

I had big plans to celebrate American Thanksgiving but I got sidetracked by the thought of homemade poutine.

We went gourmet style, making a rich, shredded beef gravy and using real fries from the fish&chips place on the corner instead of making oven fries.

We invited friends over, one of whom was a poutine virgin, to share in our gluttony.

It was glorious.

Sweet Jesus, that is the most digustingly delicious thing I have seen in a long time. Just look at those curds, will ya?

Do you know if drool has any serious adverse effect on computer keyboards?

I'm not a meat eater, but if anything was to turn me back to carnivorous ways it would be this dish. Droooooool.

Well that's just about one of the happiest things to show up on my screen today :)
For the veggies out there, there are many options for the gravy... if you are vegan... could be an issue, but we have a variety of poutine in the city - brie and lobster bisque (OMG from Coast...) among many more including from the head chef of coast a trailor set up to sell his wares.
It's a lovely addiction. Have you tried any of the poutine from the place on Davie where they apparently have 20 different types??? I need a date... ;)
