April's looking good for you, Lonie.

[Wyatt's Torch 45]

Okay, so, I don't know how to say this but...

Where's the best place to get a bonafide Montreal poutine near the consulate?

[lonie 0]

Hey Wyatt, not that its close to the embassy, but there is a place that is 24/7 that makes killer poutines called La Banquise(I think its on St. Andre st), authentic to the max! ( I live here, and when I go there I am in poutine heaven) They make more than 25 types. You have to go, seriously!

Actually what I meant was that its not within walking distance, but its a short cab right, you could go after and celebrate!!

Thanks for the good wishes for my interview, I sincerely hope so, hubs is tired of waiting !!

[La Souris 19]

La Banquise is on Rachel, close to Mentana Open 24/7...

[lgg 2]

Oh my god! You'll all think I'm gross, mais je t'aime les poutines italienne!!

[La Souris 19]

Oh my god! You'll all think I'm gross, mais je t'aime les poutines italienne!!

That's how you got your green skin!!!!

[lgg 2]

it's so true...

But oh my dieu! Italian poutine! You know where I used to LOVE to go after the bars... The Green Spot and Fameux Viande fume on St. Denis, I think? There was another one on Mont Royal too!

The Green Spot is in NDG, I think but awesome food!

I used to live on Colonial, and Hotel de Ville and Henri Julien -- all over the Plateau except for a year or two in NDG...

That's how you got your green skin!!!!

Poutine is perfect after bars... is it the fat? is it the sodium? There was a nice article recently in the New Yorker about it: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/11...fa_fact_trillin

(I won't write my address for all to see, but, yeah, I'm a Plateau girl...)

The best was when I lived on laval, right off the Carre St. Louis... they got rid of all the drug dealers and it was the perfect location...

My favourite era in the Montreal years!

And the Plateau for the win! And yeah, don't say your address, I don't live there anymore so I'm okay...

There was a micro brasserie I used to go to all the time, it burnt down, corner of Mont Royal and St. Laurent? They had honey beer in the summer, LOVED that place...

not le cheval blanc but.... do you know it?
