Thanks to Natalie and Gordon for this review.
Keep 'em coming people!
We always enjoy eating at Vert Fourchette, but until last weekend, I had
never tried their poutine, a relatively new item on their menu.
And it's not just any old poutine! It's the house garlic/rosemary
frîtes , with cheese curds and homemade pulled pork slathered on top. To heck with the calories! I was determined to try it. And I was not disappointed.
The fresh, crispy fries were layered with a generous
helping of cheese curds, topped with an even more generous helping of
succulent, spicy pulled pork. This combination worked very well: the
marriage of skinny fries and juicy pork was most harmonious.
Every mouthful featured potatoes, cheese and pork, right to the bottom
of the bowl. With a little help from my husband, I cleaned my plate.
I give this poutine 4.75 curds out of 5. If the pulled pork had been
slightly hotter, so as to melt the outer curds more, I would pushed it
to a five. The restaurant itself is a beautifully restored century home,
with wonderful atmosphere and attentive, friendly serving staff. Love
their innovative poutine.
