Ladies and gentlemen, Mesdames et Messieurs, we have a winner!\n\nIn my decidedly unscientific poutine crawl in Montreal, my favorite experience was here at Fameux. The place does a lively business but that doesn't stop the lady at the front from being so friendly and welcoming. It was great just meeting here. In addition to that, the food was amazing!\n\nI, of course, had poutine. I got the smoked meat variety since they are known for that. My buddy got a smoked meat sandwich, with fries and gravy. He put his first fry in the gravy and after tasting it, said I'd love it and he was not wrong. \n\nThe smoked meat itself was perfect...moist without being greasy. Tender and flavorful. It was heaven. But what sent it to the stratosphere for me was the gravy. There was some flavor in there...a spice or something..I couldn't put my finger on it but it added a little \"zing\" to the proceedings. I loved it. \n\nWashing it down with a tap beer (I think they told me it was made by Molson, I could be wrong) was a delightful way to spend an afternoon.\n\nThis gets the highly coveted award of \"Bill's Favorite Poutine in Montreal\".
