The Heart Attack

HELLO WORLD!

I've been vacationing around and I just had to share some amazing food photos with you all, because they're so mouth-watering! (Thanks Instagram!)

I went to this restaurant in Montreal, Quebec called Poutineville and they have some of the BEST POUTINE EVER!!. For those of you who are not Canadian, or have not visited Canada, or have been living under a rock and recently discovered the world wide web, let me explain to you the intricate mechanics of a poutine. You add french fries + gravy + cheese curds (no other cheese is permitted!) and VOILA! This resto makes the best poutines and with such a variety of choices.

At Poutineville, you can pick your choice of fries (smashed fries-it's they specialty, sweet and normal cut fries) with 5 different types of gravy (including red wine gravy..how awesome is that!) and a variety of meats, ranging from hot dog pieces to steak triple A, and a whole lot of veggies! Check out my awesome night out!

The sample platter of smashed potatoe fries with red wine gravy, and sweet potatoe fries with black pepper sauce, both covered in cheese curds! 

 To finish the meal off, I always love a good sweet. Macaroons will do the trick. There's this cute place, also in Montreal, called Point G where they sell the best macaroons and homemade confectioneries! Here is their beautiful wheel of flavours:

Voila ici, are my yummy macaroons: (I forgot which flavours I got, but that's why I added the wheel up there for you!)

A very foodie blog post today. But I want to leave you with this "glutton for punishment" video on Youtube. If you didn't know, Poutineville has this dish called "the heart attack" where it's this huge plate the size of a baby pig, of fries+every kind of meat in Quebec+A LOT of pig fat.

I am not exaggerating, check out the video and you'll want to run on the tread mill afterwards! It's a very fitting challenge for the guys at Epic Meal Time, (don't worry, not one actually got a heart attack...yet)
