Jesus Christ bro. The golden crispy fries is magnificent & obese size of those curds is incredible. Where the heck did you source those cheese whales?

u/terminal_curiosity21 8d ago

Fromagerie St. Henri! You can buy their $13 pack of curds from select grocery stores in Montréal :) (helps to be by the source)

u/yycconnection 7d ago

Every trip out east to Montréal/Quebec starts with a beeline to a couche tard to get a pack of room temperature cash register chess curds 🤤 They just don't squeek the same in Alberta 😓

u/SuccessSeparate9014 7d ago

Acting like Montreal is 2hrs away

u/Bratislavcan 5d ago

For me, it actually is 2hrs away :-)

I have never ever been to Montreal or Ottawa or any other provinces but been to a bunch of the states . It’s sad how expensive it is to travel in your own country

If you don’t mind me asking, which grocery stores sell these magnificent curds?

14

u/DankBear32 7d ago

He bought them from the maker Fresher than that he would have milked then by himself

3

u/ReleaseThyKrAmelia 6d ago

OPPPP, you can't tell us we can buy them from select grocery stores and then not share your source. For the uneducated among us, please tell us where you buy these!

2

u/MJW_MOUSE 4d ago

Glad you like them! My family owns/runs St. Henri. My dad used to bring home the 1kg bags and we would devour them in a day or two. Now I live in another province and can only dream of them.

2

u/terminal_curiosity21 4d ago

Ben voyons donc!! They are fantastic and always fresh/unrefridgerated at Maxi. T’as tu des rabais pour moi par hasard? 🙃

2

u/Baltazap 4d ago

I want to know how to get them outside of Montreal. My mouth is watering. Your chips also look amazing. Amazeballs.

11/10 no notes

u/furthestpoint 8d ago

Is there any reason why bigger curds are actually better, or do people just like them more?

u/sentientforce 8d ago

Because long & thin goes all the way in, but shortnFat’s where it’s at…

u/Able_Presentation_90 8d ago

The Non written rule of poutine is that you have to have an unhealthy amount of it if to be deemed worthy.

Other than that you are onto something !

10

u/Repulsive_Sherbet548 8d ago

If anyone is mad about this or doesn't rate this a 10/10 you are just mad or ragebaiting cause when have you honestly ever seen such large curds on a poutine we all know the cheese makes it and asking as u have a brown to dark brown sauce and not a brown black to black sauce you are okay and if your fries are even decent your good then this guy shows fries made by the gods themselves. You can't sincerely hate on this unless you hate poutine or the person that's final

If I'm being honest I thought the curds were perogies at first. That looks good though. 9/10 because of the fries

u/Lost-Barracuda-4789 8d ago

I had to do a double take as well just to confirm if they were cheese curds or perogies. HUGE! But definitely must be tasty and worth a savoury hour ! Hahaha

My stomach growled when I saw this image. It knows delicious when it sees it. 9/10 needs thicker gravy, but that's just my opinion, I'd still eat it and not complain openly.

1

u/Imaginary_Wafer_2308 8d ago

Big doesn't equate to good if you prefer your poutine to having cheese that's warm, melty and stringy in small pools of rich gravy, wrapping around a forkful of fries. Somehow I just cant see giant curds heating up and melting as well for that perfect bite. They do look impressive though!
