    I'm really confused about this place. When I spoke the lady at the register, she said the truck was…read morefrom Chilliwack. But I searched around and couldn't find any mention of it on the internet. When I did a boarder search, I saw the truck at the Calgary Stampede in 2011, but after that it disappeared again. Unfortunately, it was crazy crowded and loud at the Jazz Festival that I couldn't really stop and ask about the business much. While $10 is a slightly steep price to pay for a poutine in a city blessed with La Belle Patate, I thought for what it was (a food truck, catering to a big crowd of festival go-ers at just the right place and time), it certainly hit the spot. The portions were good, the gravy was delicious, and the cheese curds nice and squeeky. I ordered the Quebecor, which comes with maple syrup and thought it was a good taste, but certainly not for those looking for savoury. Apparently all the savoury options that looked appetizing were already swept up by the earlier crowds. The truck is large and well decorated, I love the look it has! The only odd thing about the place is the way the ordering system works. I put in an order at one end of the truck, and get a receipt. But I take this receipt and literally walk two steps to around a corner and hand it to someone at a second window on the side. Mind you, they're all in the same truck, so they're probably right beside each other. This person takes the ticket and makes my order. If the lady at the register didn't turn around and call me to out the food station window to hand over my ticket, I'd probably be standing there a long time... I took half-decent photos on my phone, but there seems to be some better photos of the truck on the yycbesteats website: http://www.yycsbesteats.com/day-5-calgary-stampede-food-review-la-poutinerie/

    I was outvoted and dragged here kicking and screaming. Then they promised I could order "The Gaucho…read moreCowboy". Now I'm intrigued. Have to go. This could be the greatest staff in all of Southern BC. Patient, kind, humorous. Not only can they explain the different items and their ingredients, they can describe exactly how it all tastes. To which they are 100% accurate! The six of us played community food, but what's the point here? All the poutine was awesome. Oh well, it's fun to share. Yes, get The Gaucho "Cowboy", but also try the Butter Chicken, Vegetarian Chili and my favourite, the Le Montreal. ALL the poutines rocked! The burgers are juicy and full of flavour. This group has found a way to marry all the flavours so they complement each other all through the meal until the end. Portion size was another crazy, happy surprise. So much so that the cost no longer matters (as you may have guessed, the cost was reasonable). Still, if it's just a couple of you, you might go regular as opposed to jumbo...unless you're thinking late night leftovers. We pigged-out and didn't get a chance to reheat this food. Mistake on my part. 05/25

    We were looking for a place to grab a sweet treat in Victoria and this did not disappoint!…read more When we first got into Victoria, we stopped by for lunch at BeaverTails and got the poutine. When we got back from an adventure at Butchart Gardens, we stopped by for dessert! We got the Hazel Amour and it was enough for us to share. There are so many offers and combinations that I could see us coming back here the next time we're back in BC. If you're staying in Victoria, this place gets a little crazier when the cruise ships are docked. There are only a few tables outside so it's perfect on a sunny day or if you plan to explore the city with a treat in hand.

This is located on a main strip in Victoria - and I was happy to see it. I'd only had it in Ottawa. They have others in BC just not in Vancouver. It's a small stand so it's tight but it opens to the street so it feels bigger. On your birthday, you get a free beaver tail which retails probably closer to $10. You get to have the original but my favorite favorite flavor is the original with a lemon on it so they gave that to us for free for my mom's birthday. You must visit the spot if you're in Victoria yes it is a little touristy, but it is a very good product and the staff is super friendly.
