Poutine in Seattle?

[masraum]

Is there anywhere in Seattle to get good poutine (especially in downtown)?

I've had poutine before (I liked it, but I'm sure it wasn't "good" or at least not fresh, since there was no squeak to the curds). The missus and I both liked it, and there's no place in Houston to get it. If there's anywhere to get it in Seattle, that would be cool.

On a vaguely related note, I remember when I was in Seattle 18 years ago, it seemed like there were a million teriyaki restaurants. I never went to any, but I should have. If they are still around, maybe we'll try one of those too.

First Avenue.

Oh . . .
"poutine!"
. . . never mind.

hahaha
Yeah, I don't want to troll for any of that other stuff.

Skillet Regrade has decent Poutine (and a host of other good fare that I'd recommend more highly than some of the food suggestions you got on the other thread).

As I remember good poutine is a oxymoron. Like "a good wasp sting."

Some lady here in Oklahoma City is from Canada and she opened a bakery, and she has some limited lunch choices. One of my friends posted on Facebook how good it is. One of my other friends explained that is like a good ingrown toenail.

I hope you find some good poutine. Good hunting.

When in Texazzs you eat BBQ, when in Seattle you eat seafood, when in Vancouver you eat Chinese, and when in Victoria you eat Brit, or Pub Fare.. S CA Mexican. NO...Seafood, NE..Lobster..

LV and NYC anything you can imagine...

Would any of the cooking shows have recommended map links?
(there's about a million of 'em)

What?!? Do you like chili-cheese-fries? Poutine is just the Canadian version. What's not to love, fries, some sort of meaty sauce and cheese?

There's a British pub here that makes their own food (it's not from Sysco) and they have "Keema Fries" which is like Indian inspired chili-cheese-fries. Fries, cheese and then Keema on top which is like Indian lamb chili. It's spectacular. I sometimes order it as a meal.

Same with the fastfood teriyaki. It's okay, but surely not something to seek out or go out of your way for. Luckily it's on every corner so if that's what you want it'll be there.

Re teriyaki, I lived in Japan for many years when I was a kid. My mom used to make it for us. I haven't had any in many years. It's more about curiosity and nostalgia. I won't go out of my way to have any, but if we bump into a place that looks good and we are ready for lunch or a snack...

I will absolutely be going to Sushi Kashiba while I'm there. That should be really great seafood.

We will probably have either dinner 3x and lunch 2x or maybe dinner 2x and lunch 1x while we are in Seattle (the rest of the time eating in Redmond and Cle Elum).

Vons Gastropub. Amazing poutine, and house made sourdough noodles for an amazing amc and cheese.

Also.... if you like Jamaican food, try this place.

Sourdough noodles sounds great. I’ve had poutine, not a fan. I can’t imagine why Seattle poutine would be anything special.

When I was in Calgary about a month back, my cousins told me about it and my wife and I really wanted to give it a try but didn't get a chance to do so. Now, you must report back Steve. We had gravy with fries 25 years ago in a small restaurant in Hope as we were driving through onto Calgary in the dead middle of winter. It was so dang good. We don't eat fries like that so it sounded weird.

I love poutine. For me it is the perfect food: carbs, dairy/protein and fat in one lovely steaming pile. But if you're expecting the cheese curds to squeak in poutine the gravy is cold. The cheese melts in poutine, from the heat of the freshly cooked fries and the hot gravy: it will be stringy, not squeaky. Cold cheese curds are squeaky, not in poutine. As a matter of fact, I believe the cheese is to be placed on the fries first then covered with hot gravy. If it tastes good to you, it is good poutine. But what do I know... Eh? LOL

NY Fries is doing some weird things with 'Poutine', including bacon bits, onion, sour cream, and my son got an order that didn't even have gravy. THAT is sacrilegious!!

Poutine is a Canadian thing. I live in Houston. There is no poutine here. I was assuming that due to proximity, that there may be some decent poutine there.

I like really good, fancy food. I also like simple, peasant-style food. Frankly, I haven't met much food that I don't like. I had some poutine in a pub in San Fran that was quite tasty, but I have no idea how much it would be like the stuff that you'd get in Canada.

OK, I thought I'd remembered reading somewhere that there was some nickname or slang that incorporated "squeak" because when you chewed through the curds, if they were fresh, they would squeak, but maybe I'm wrong.
