One of the things you may learn to love if you visit Montreal is poutine. Fries, cheese curds and gravy. The Quebec dish is now spreading to other parts of Canada. Aside from the classic version there are lots of other toppings available. Here is a pic of the T-Rex poutine served at La Banquise in Montreal. this has smoked sausage, bacon, ground beef and hot dogs on top. They offer 28 different toppings. At first I was resistant (chips and gravy?) but now I love it which must mean after 3 years here I am becoming more Canadian. I 'm going to upload more pics here at Expat.com.

I love poutine, after I came over here for October I had to keep nipping to a chippie and getting chips with cheese and gravy, not the same but was good. Find it weird not having chippies here though and calling chips fries.

Well it is not my favorite, I tried many of them even in the sport restaurants and I really don't like it at all.
