Not necessarily the best meals (or places), but the meals (or places) that best represent your culture.

    on the east coast of Canada, in the French speaking region known as Acadie (not in Quebec), there is a dish known as Poutine Rapée. it is not the delicious “cheese fries and gravy” Poutine, oh no. This is a big fucking potato dumpling with seasoned pork and onion inside it. Making them is an art form. They are super delicious. Eat one of those for lunch and you’ll go for hours.

      As a former Maritimer, I feel robbed that I was exposed to Halifax donair and not this instead.

      Donair sucks and donair pizza is an abomination, and I’ll fight anyone who says otherwise. This on the other hand sounds amazing.

        well bud, I enjoy donairs enough for both of us put together, so don’t you worry about that. I could eat the arse end out of one right now and I’m not even done my coffee.

        But yeah, Poutine Rapée is absolutely tits. Like a “cult classic” movie or a super amazing hotspot that only the locals know about, if you know you know, and now you know. I hope wherever you are that you have a kick-ass day.
