Anybody Know Where To Get A Good Poutine In Bkk?

Featured Replies

Someone would if they knew what it is, no such word in the English dictionary.. Do you mean POTEEN - whiskey illicitly distilled in Ireland?

I think you'll find it's spelled "poontang". Look around soi 4, Cowboy, the Pong etc.

Only Canadians will know poutine, I don't think there are any places that make it and I don't think we can even get cheese curds here.

Why did you start this, now I'm hungry smile.png I'm with you Driedmango I wish we could find poutine outside of Canada. Please don't start anything to do with Timmy's or Timbits LOL

The french fries, gravy & cheese curds are heaven on earth, on a recent visit to the Rock (Newfoundland) they add lobster talk about good.

ahahaha, poutine, you will need to travel to Montreal to find some.

Wow, lobster on poutine...

Reminds me of a lobster sandwich I got somewhere on the road around Sept-Isles, Quebec

Don't steal my idea, but I might open the Montreal Poutine house in BKK, and show pictures of how people eat this and can stay skinny.

I'm not sure if its good cause I have only tried poutine from this place but there is a little street place on Samsen Soi 2, Bangkok in Banglamphu. (10 minutes walk from Khao San)

I've had it once or twice and I thought it was pretty good. There's a Canadian guy who always eats there and he approves so it must be alright?

Lazygourmet & Phuturatica thank you for the info, you've made one Canuck very happy it may even be my Thanksgiving lunch October 8th.

I can't wait for some redneck from northern BC or Ontario to heap scorn on the "evil food from Quebec". (Prairie folk are too polite to engage in such rudeness.)

Real poutine requires fresh cheddar cheese curds. They have to be so fresh as to squeak when you rub them, Good luck on finding that in Thailand.

The gravy or "la sauce" as the Quebecois call it, isn't just any gravy. It's BBQ chicken gravy, which relies on chicken stock with pepper and onion extract. There is no real BBQ sauce in Thailand. It would have to be made from scratch. In fact, no one understands the concept of what BBQ means here. The locals think BBQ is tossing little bits of meat onto a metal pan sitting on one of those hibatchi type gizmos. Outside of some Americans and Australians, I haven't met anyone in Thailand that understands that a proper BBQ produces an incredible result. The bets BBQ is avalable in small towns all over the US south.

The fench fries have to freshly cut from worthy potatos, something that Stompin Tom Connors would sing about, i.e. spuds from Prince Edward Island. Although Stompin Tom did say that ketchup luvs potados". The french fries available in most Thai supermarkets are the industrial produced bland starchy variety from the USA. Yuck. In the good old days, the most flavourable results came from frying in lard. Today, we can do without the heart disease and peanut oil is favoured. Unfortunately, everything is fried in horrible palm oil here. Not even canola, just low grade palm oil. Ugh. It gives the french fries an after taste.

It;s like calling the Pizza Company abominations pizza.

With potatoes being fried in goose fat, the best one I've ever had was "Poutine au foie gras" from Au Pied de Cochon, in Montreal rolleyes.gif

Would that be a quiet canuck with round specs, by any chance?....quite a quiet spoken guy?

It does sound pretty dam_n tasty! I bet its great for my diet... ermm.gif

Come on James...your big moment has arrived...a chance for you to make a sensible and highly informative post.

:P

They throw up immediately they have finished eating? biggrin.png

Thai style: fried sweet potatoes with pa-la and nam prik! Yummy!
