You don't have to be from the Great White North to enjoy poutine. With crispy fries dotted with cheese curds and then slathered in gravy, this Canadian delicacy is a savory smorgasbord of diet-sabotaging deliciousness. Lucky for us Orlando locals, there's no need to travel northward to partake of poutine; we have plenty of nearby locales bold enough to serve this iconic Canadian pub grub.
WHERE TO FIND POUTINE IN ORLANDO
The Daily Poutine
Four unique iterations dot the menu of this poutine homage, including Classic (beef gravy and cheddar cheese curds), Italian (mozzarella and bolognese sauce), Latin (fried yucca, black beans, pulled pork and queso fresco) and French (mushroom cream sauce and gruyere cheese). They also serve Labatt Blue Canadian Pilsener, which is pretty neat.
