There are quite a few restaurants that add extra toppings and sauces to the conventional plain poutine. Not the healthiest food on earth, but one of the best comfort foods to run to after you feel like you've failed an exam.
Adding anything else for toppings to give it a shitty international name (Oh! a put some tacos on it, it's a mexican version!) and replacing the cheese curds by a random cheese (most of time because they cannot get fresh one) is just BLASPHEMY!
If Quebec was independant, there would be a law for that.
"Fabada asturiana" from Asturias in the north of Spain
It is made of "farm beans" wich are bigger than standard beans (4 - 5 cm length more or less) Chorizo, blood sausage and pork fat. For drink you should have apple cider and for dessert rice pudding.
Great for that long winter and rainy days we have on the north of Spain. Because not all in spain is sun, beach and wine, in the north we are more like Irish due to our past celt bonds.
Man vs Food did a hot dog challenge for the NC Triangle, but 100% the food I miss is Lexington, NC BBQ. My grandparents lived in Lexington and that's 110% the best BBQ I've ever had. The vinegar base + spices they use at Smokey Joe's has been my standard for BBQ for yeeeeeeears.
im from jersey. we have good pizza/italian food since we are close to NY (a little less than an hour away) and people around here somewhat know what they are doing, esp in the ones owned by italians xD
haha I'm also from Vancouver island and I can vouch those are the most delicious things ever
I dunno if you've ever been to honeymoon bay but there's a lady with a sweet shop who serves deep fried icecream
she has some blast freezer than can cool the icecream to much colder temperatures, so that the deep frieing does nothing more than take it back to that of a normal frozen icecream
she then tops it with a variety of sauces and whipped cream
probably the single best thing I've ever had in my life
