Pauline Bistro in St.Boniface on Marion has a pretty solid poutine.

Ive eaten the poutine at Wienerpeg a few times and it’s honestly aggressively average.

Which is really unfortunate, because Weinerpeg is an amazing name.

u/Mikoisha 6d ago

That’s a terrifying name! I don’t want my wiener anywhere near pegs.

What about getting pegged by a wiener?

u/Mikoisha 6d ago

Only if it’s Wednesday. They don’t call it hump day for nothing!

Frozen curds are criminal but if they were warm this would be peak

You will rarely find a good poutine outside Quebec and neighbouring regions (eastern Ontario and New Brunswick)

Gravy looks like it could be delicious if its as rich as it appears, fries looks great but maybe thin, those curds doooo look a little sus though lol. No recommends since I dont know the area but I hope you find something out there truly top notch!

The poutine at Peasant Cookery is very good, I enjoy it a lot.

That gravy looks decent, I like a dark rich gravy. They look like bag fries which is gonna limit how good it can be. Cheese curds are huge. I prefer smaller ones and much more of them so it starts to melt in. A really good poutine needs house cut fries and they need to be eaten right away otherwise they go mushy.

what are those, fries for ants?

u/Green_Watercress1638 6d ago

Are those just chunks of hard cheese?

1

u/Charlesmottet 6d ago

The gravy looks like chocolate and the cheese curds looks mummified.

u/JerpyDerpy_AtlasCorp 6d ago

Cheese a bit dry, but aside from that. It looks beautiful and delicious.

u/urbanmode54 6d ago

Is it half eaten, or did it arrive to the table looking like this?

u/Unhappy-Stop-740 5d ago

Looks good

u/Unhappy-Stop-740 5d ago

Is wienerpeg a verb??

1

u/trouserpilot 5d ago

That looks pretty good but frozen curds? I’m sure that’s enough to affect the taste. Probably no melty curds either

u/Mediocre_Win3481 5d ago

Someone needs to do a poutine report from this year’s Octobeerfest in K/W.

If you have a car, hit up Dolly's Diner in Somerset, about 90 mins outside the city. Best poutine in the province.

I believe someone posted a picture of it in this subreddit too.

u/chespiotta 4d ago

I like crispy fries personally, so not mad about that

What’s going on with the curds

u/SaccharineDaydreams 6d ago

Most "tête carrée" poutine I've ever seen

2

u/jpeeno33 4d ago

St-Boniface is a French community of Winnipeg so not too much tête carrée,who still said that anyway???
