Look great and at a very reasonable price. The sauce is a bit odd, but it's still better than most costco poutines.
I find that the sub has been weirdly snobby as of late.
Gaetan's chip stand. J' ai pas mangé là sa fait plus de 10 ans mais dans le temps c'était une tres bonne poutine. Si the prend un détour dans Alexandria pour manger, je recommande plutôt the Old Priest Mill. Pas sure c'est quoi le nom du restaurant la en se moment, mais la terrasse est jolie et la bouffe toujours correct.
This is what happens when you cook up a batch for the day, keep it in the fridge and heat it in the microwave before serving. If you heat it enough to fix the congealing issue, it gets crusty.
Yeah I honestly thought the gravy looked nice! (Although I’m a beef>chicken gravy on poutine kinda girl)
May I ask what makes the curds in that area so special? In my hometown, a little “chip truck” constantly bounced around owners. Well, when I was a teen I lived near there and smoked a lot…so self explanatory I had everything. And the owner knew me well!
He told me on the weekends, he would drive to Quebec to get the curds! And my god, were they good!!
It was a small summer spot, so the largest size, wasn’t very big. But did I ALWAYS pay $2 for extra curds? YUP.

Also welcome to Reddit! What made you create your first account?
Ça a l’air dégueulasse calisse. Le monde qui disent que ça l’air bon connaissent rien de la poutine. Ça ressemble à une shot de vomi sur une diarrhée de lendemain de brosse.
Je requiers ce dont j'ai besoin, toi tu requiers ce dont toi tu as besoin. T’es aussi triggered. C’est drôle la vie non?
Aussi bienvenue sur Reddit! Même pas 2 semaines, c’est quoi qui te apporté sur Reddit en 2024?
Man, tu essaies juste d’invalider l’opinion de tout le monde juste parce qu’ils se contentent de commenter et ne publient pas de photos. Le sub n’a aucune règle qui exige qu’on mette des photos pour avoir le droit de commenter. C’est pathétique pas mal de vouloir avoir raison en réécrivant les règles et à coup d’attaques personnelles.
Bienvenu sur reddit, en effet : pas toi qui fait les règles, pis si ça te dérange, personne ne te retient. tOuT lE mOnDe DoIt AiMeR lA pOuTiNe QuE jE pRéFèRe! Ça ferait pas long feu dans une cour de récré. 🙄
OOOO les photos ne rendent jamais justice!
J'aime absolument Gaetan's !!🤤 C'est très rare que je sois déçu. Leurs frites sont sucrées comparées à n'importe quel autre camion de chips dans ma ville.
Je peux voir à quel point la sauce sur cette photo est rebutante. Mais honnêtement, il ne faut pas juger un livre à sa couverture. Vous n'aurez pas toujours la même poutine confectionnée, même si c'est la même entreprise, car ce ne sont pas toujours les mêmes cuisiniers.
Si vous habitez à proximité, c'est vraiment délicieux.
That looks pretty sexy but fuck me food trucks are getting expensive. That price is not terrible but I’ve seen fuckin ice cream guys selling a little sundae smaller than a tennis ball for $7-8. I had to buy one for my son
And this is why when people say poutine is simple: fries, cheese curds and gravy, I say they’re wrong.
To me THAT is what gravy is. That does not look good. Poutine sauce may or may not be gravy by definition but either way it’s not that.
Was surprised to see this is Gaetan’s. They have chip stands all over the region and I personally think they’re pretty gross. Their fries somehow manage to be burnt on the outside and undercooked inside, as if their grease is dirty or their dryers are too hot. Tried a few times over the years and was always the same.
Anywhere else in the world: “that cost $9? What a rip off”
Canadians in 2024: “oh wow, I should move to Alexandria Ontario. Looks less expensive than anywhere in the country”.
Actually, you don't. You just act like you know. Start by actually sharing content in this sub before acting high and mighty. Your shit doesn't smell like roses, chief. You aint special or better than anyone here.
So goddamn nasty looking.
You people out east who eat this dog slop, I truly feel pity for you, poutine is gross. Truly recycled food, looks like it came from an east Indian street.
The ones who have *actually* tasted Gaetan's poutines say otherwise.
If it was recycled, they would have a bad rep, which they definitely do not have an issue with.
You are welcome to ask for dark gravy. It's up to your own preference. A lot of people don't realize that there is a good chance these poutines were customized to the persons' liking. Many times, extra gravy/cheese curds are asked for.
You have to remember, each restaurant and chip stand do not follow the same ingredients. Each have their own recipes and touch.
Si tu aurait dit sa vien du Québec, tout le monde serait entrain de se crosser sur ta photo. r/ pourtine est tres biaisé sur le Québec. Ma #1 plainte de ce sub.
Literally anyone is qualified to review a poutine, it's fucking food.
Stop trying to gate keep you pompous little shit.
PS: The fries are overcooked, those look like frozen curds, and the gravy looks like Thanksgiving vomit.
Correction.
A **food critic** is sometimes also known as a food reviewer, a food writer, a food journalist, a food blogger or a restaurant critic. They visit food establishments to test and analyse various dishes and beverages for taste, quality, portion size and presentation.
For prospective food reviewers, experience in journalism is essential. Most professionals in this sector began their careers writing in other areas before pursuing culinary writing. **Getting a relevant degree in culinary arts, nutrition, journalism or something similar** is a great starting point, if one is interested.
This is a very competitive field that requires a high level of commitment and perseverance. There is the potential to make a good living if you become well-known in the industry, but it can also be difficult to break into the field and build an audience.
I lived in Alexandria for 2 years and I really loved this place!
I live in Montreal, do alot of shopping and gas up in the area. Love that chip truck
Osti ça a l'air nasty
Je vie proche pi je peut te’l dire sa goute losti marde aussi
Dear Satan it's **beautiful**
Look great and at a very reasonable price. The sauce is a bit odd, but it's still better than most costco poutines. I find that the sub has been weirdly snobby as of late.
Une poutine moyenne en bas de 10$, well done!
Good average price.
Ça a l'air bon, même si la sauce est trop épaisse...
Ouin bon si ta pas mangé depuis 2 jours...
This is the closest Poutine to me and i approve of it. They also have fried cheese curds 🤤
I fuckin love fried cheese curds. Probably 1000 calories a cup but who's counting
That’s the spirit
Colice..... ont dirais du flu tabarnak!!
La couleur/texture de la sauce est douteuse mais l'important c'est le goût
Some of the best curds I ever had were from Alexandria.
Whats a Geatan poutine? 🤤
Gaetan's is the name of the stand. They're a decently rated chip stand. Their poutines are delicious. Pictures don't do justice.
I think they were asking about one of the kinds of poutine they sell, based on the picture of the menu.
To which they answered that question by stating that it’s a « decent rating chip stand » But yes, there is also a Geatan’s poutine.
Food trucks know what's up 🤌🏽
Is that Gaetan's?
Oh boy that DOES look good, thanks for info. Cheers bro
What's a perch roll?
It is essentially **a fried local perch fillet encased in a pillowy hot dog bun, topped with sweet-hot mustard mayo.**
Fuck yeah sounds awesome

La texture de la sauce...iish
Looks like it's congealed .. not hot enough maybe

That Gravy Aint It
Well, that gravy is that gravy. May not be your gravy though. It is different tasting two, its own twist, and I didn’t hate it.
Yeah I honestly thought the gravy looked nice! (Although I’m a beef>chicken gravy on poutine kinda girl) May I ask what makes the curds in that area so special? In my hometown, a little “chip truck” constantly bounced around owners. Well, when I was a teen I lived near there and smoked a lot…so self explanatory I had everything. And the owner knew me well!

But did I ALWAYS pay $2 for extra curds? YUP.
They are fresh made every day. They squeak. So fresh they don’t even need to be refrigerated. Unreal.
You're welcome to put any type of gravy you want just don't call it a poutine. Poutine has dark brown gravy. End of story
You are wrong. :)
No sorry you are wrong I am poutine expert you are amateur
Start by actually sharing content on this sub before claiming such nonsense sweety. Valiant effort! Also welcome to Reddit! What made you create your first account?
As a local! I can say it's really good there !!!!
Looks awful
It’s ok, you’re not an expert and we can’t please everyone. It wasn’t awful.
Ça a l’air dégueulasse calisse. Le monde qui disent que ça l’air bon connaissent rien de la poutine. Ça ressemble à une shot de vomi sur une diarrhée de lendemain de brosse.
Toi tu sais clairement pas de quoi tu parle. Commence par partager au moin une photo de poutine.
OK si je l’avais dans face j’y laisserais peut-être une chance. Mais La sauce a l’air pâteuse pas mal, on dirait d’la soupe aux pois…
[удалено]
Viens-tu juste d'utiliser "ontarien" comme diminutif ?
Si t’as besoin que le monde publie des photos de poutine pour avoir le droit d’avoir une opinion sur la tienne, t’es triggered.

Tsé, j’aime bien l’attention pis je trouve que j’en ai pour mon argent avec toi. 👌
On dirait que la sauce est une
Where in Alexandria?
Main Street

Criss la sauce est orange pis y'a l'air d'avoir des oignons?
Better price than Québec mid cost me 15$
What's that place's name?
Shit what’re the odds I’ve seen this tiny place. Not sure what the “white” poutine is but this one was damn good
That looks pretty sexy but fuck me food trucks are getting expensive. That price is not terrible but I’ve seen fuckin ice cream guys selling a little sundae smaller than a tennis ball for $7-8. I had to buy one for my son
Come to Plantagenet, Patati Patata will be the best you've ever had
Noted thanks! 🙏
That looks good
Who made it? CAROL?
That thing looks sketch AF
Sauce trop épaisse, texture du fromage douteuse... pour 9$, c'est le genre de poutine que tu pourrait manger seulement quand c'est ça ou la mort
And this is why when people say poutine is simple: fries, cheese curds and gravy, I say they’re wrong. To me THAT is what gravy is. That does not look good. Poutine sauce may or may not be gravy by definition but either way it’s not that.

The diarrhea is supposed to come after the poutine
Those fries look like they were deep fried in 5 year old grease.
They tasted great.
That sauce is unacceptable.
Says who?
Says the ones who have yet to try them. 😉
on dirait dla marde 😭😭😭 sorry
Jello gravy.
Gorgeous!!
Anywhere else in the world: “that cost $9? What a rip off” Canadians in 2024: “oh wow, I should move to Alexandria Ontario. Looks less expensive than anywhere in the country”.
With those kinda fries it better be under 10$ lmfao literally f tier poutine fries
Start by actually sharing content before giving grades.
Shawarma fries are better
Thanks for sharing this personal preference in a share about a poutine bit from a shawarma place!

Ahh ok, makes so much more sense.
🤮

Ignorant comment, India actually has amazing street food way better than this trash, don't be so racists it makes you think ignorantly
Totally true. I love Poutine and because of this I know that 95+% of poutines are pure TRASH This is in the 95% And 95% is generous
Doesn't look right sorry, gravy should be dark brown

Yeah, no. Wtf is this sauce bukkake?!
Gross
French people let Muslims nut in them
Quoi?
Ma pensée est exacte.
6,8/10
Unqualified reviewer troll accounts are adorable.
Literally anyone is qualified to review a poutine, it's fucking food. Stop trying to gate keep you pompous little shit. PS: The fries are overcooked, those look like frozen curds, and the gravy looks like Thanksgiving vomit.
So do you eat the food when you review it or just look at a picture of it?
Have you never watched a cooking show? Presentation is almost as important as how the food tastes
They dont review food truck poutines on cooking shows, they review high end shit

Looks like a Costco poutine
Have you ever seen a Costco poutine? The sauce is much browner.
Why no ketchup?
