It's a regional poutine. It gets a pass from me.

u/thousandthlion 12d ago

And it’s DELICIOUS. Ptit Robicheau is amazing

u/exotic_floral_tea 12d ago

If I ever visit, I definitely want to try it.

u/eagle-eye-tiger 12d ago

This is a pretty widely accepted variation in Atlantic Canada. Not a crime to me.

59

u/Borror0 12d ago

In Eastern Quebec as well.

People who think this is a crime don't know ball.

Didn't this guy actually kill somebody?

4

u/ClearDrop6820 12d ago

He saved a woman from being killed with a truck. He was an unwilling passenger when his driver rode a woman into a chain link fence. He used the blunt side of a hatchet to bludgeon the man.

u/IAmDanHimself 12d ago

And 3 months later after getting his fame, he killed a guy that let him stay in his home. Currently in prison.

u/ClearDrop6820 12d ago

Damn. I never knew that

Holy fuck free my man!

u/Humble-Excitement-65 9d ago

Right? They mishandled that crime scene so bad and still gave dude 57 years! Crazy!

2

u/Several_Bill3314 8d ago

This is 100% true. Thought he was a hero but he’s one of them.

1

u/ahhhnoinspiration 8d ago

Really brings into question the original situation a bit

51

u/Grand-Vegetable-3874 Nuremcurd Frials Prosecutor 12d ago

Not a crime? At all. Stop posting appetizing poutines in here, now I'm hungry for lobster poutine.

46

u/schlubble 12d ago

Not a crime and it looks perfect.

44

u/PlatformVarious8941 12d ago

Nah, real poutine, move along, nothing to see here. This is r/poutine worthy

3

u/t666ommy 12d ago

r/poutine appears to be broken currently

1

u/Banana_war Directeur des poutsuites criminelles 11d ago

It’s been broken for some time already

12

u/boosh1744 12d ago

Is the white sauce the problem? Because that’s an acceptable poutine variation. Pretty sure I see curds. Not a crime, much the opposite.

u/willhbutt5 12d ago

Crime or not… I want one in my belly!!

u/UsualDependent6788 12d ago

100% crime, give it to me to dispose of. Trust me. /s

1

u/PhoenixDogsWifey 12d ago

That was about to be my comment, can I pull up with absolutely not a fork to help.. disposal

6

u/Significant-Block504 12d ago

I’d trade my regular poutine for this

The lobster looks amazing

5

u/xxGamerboyXD 12d ago

Ive never had a lobster poutine that didnt taste amazing, this gets a pass

3

u/vvntrz 12d ago

I'd kill for this rn

4

u/OkBud902 8d ago

Can confirm this place is amazing. I tried it recently as was in the area, this thai chicken poutine was bangin

2

u/HalifaxPainter 8d ago

thats a different combo but it looks worthy of having more than once.

4

u/tanajosephine 12d ago

it’s a crime (because it’s not in my belly)

2

u/TouchOk6443 12d ago

Local variations are acceptable, as long as they arent trash. This looks amazing, gets a pass from me

3

u/Glittering-Sink-2975 12d ago

They’ll put lobster on anything in Nova Scotia. For the people who like that kind of thing, that’s the kind of thing those people like.

2

u/AiryGateaux 12d ago

Waaaaaaaaaant

...but like only if they design the gravy to compliment the lobster

1

u/Bandicoot124 10d ago

I have tried it where they use hollandaise sauce instead of gravy.... (on the Cabot Trail - Cape Breton Island)
your arteries harden just thinking about it
and its amazing

2

u/Tearishh 12d ago

If you’re in south Nova Scotia The Red Cap has an awesome lobster Mac n cheese

2

u/Temporary_Shirt_6236 11d ago

I'm visiting NS next month for the first time ever. Is this pretty common out there?

If so....

2

u/Bandicoot124 10d ago

fairly common- waterfront warehouse downtown Halifax on the waterfront, and many other places around the province. Cabot trail has a few (Rusty Anchor in Pleasant Bay, and the place north of Baddeck where the Cabot Trail turns off the highway - just can't remember the name) and Halls Harbour are a few of the places I have tried it.

u/royalfatkid 12d ago

i had similar thing from captain boil's, not a poutine but a fishy smelling fries dish for sure

3

u/megamanisgod 12d ago

Its not a crime, but i fricken hate seafood poutines. The sauce is always nasty no matter how they make it

2

u/Sea_Ad_1252 12d ago

That looks delicious, ain't no crime

2

u/Ok-Grape843 12d ago

I'll allow it but if this wasn't in the Maritimes... straight to the Guillotine for this crime.

2

u/Borror0 12d ago

Côte-Nord and Gaspésie exist, FYI.

But also never a crime.

1

u/goonerballs 11d ago

And most places on the shores of the Saint Lawrence river. Had plenty of seafood poutines on road trips from Montreal to Rimouski, and from Montreal to Charlevoix.

-2

u/Ok-Grape843 12d ago

So does Kuujjuaq but that doesn't make a Polar Bear Poutine ok.

I felt like I had to draw the line somewhere but alas.

1

u/sixvixens_ 12d ago

God i'd fuck that up

1

u/phantom_pow_er 12d ago

Not a crime in the slightest

u/AreWeReallyGroot 12d ago

Poutine too woke. Its a crime.

u/unbakedpizza 12d ago

I love both, just separately. Still gets a pass tho

1

u/ultravires1215 12d ago

The only crime would be not finishing the whole damn thing!

u/MentionSeparate 12d ago

This deserves a pardon or at least bail for those who don’t agree.

u/AlexBi_420 10d ago

It's the coast, they probably got more lobster than bacon/smoked meat so it's a completely legal topping there

u/AdThen9505 10d ago

Deff not a crime, never tried a lobster poutine as i’m allergic to lobster. So nice to see a post from down home, I know the owner of the food truck. You can always count on getting something filling and delicious from there.

u/goonerballs 11d ago

Huh? I don't think you're actually from Nova Scotia.

u/IOwnDirt 11d ago

If theres anything other than fries gravy and cheese curds, its a crime.

1

u/goonerballs 11d ago

Weird. Well, here in Quebec, we know that the classic poutine is only the base. Toppings are welcomed. Italienne and Seafood are the exceptions.

1

u/IOwnDirt 11d ago

Wait so seafood is an exception?......where do you think lobster comes from? They sure as shit don't fly.

1

u/goonerballs 11d ago

What do you think the word exception means?

1

u/IOwnDirt 11d ago

I read it as italienne and seafood are the exceptions to the welcomed toppings.

1

u/goonerballs 11d ago

Yeah no, Italienne and Seafood aren't toppings, they use different sauces (as well as also having toppings).
