It’s Poutine Week every week at La Banquise.
The annual grease and gravy marathon draws to a close Feb. 7. Tens of thousands of calories and a ton of potatoes later, Montrealers will go back on their diets and most of the 100 or so restaurants that created special-edition poutines for Poutine Week‘s official competition will go back to their tried-and-true standards.
But at La Banquise, Montreal’s grand dame of fries, cheese and gravy, poutine is an ever-changing canvas.
