The mussels have a great sauce that derives its flavor from Hoegaarden beer, garlic, cilantro, orange peel, and chili de arbol and has a nice tangy kick to it.
But what is poutine? The short answer is that it's high-end junk food from Canada, consisting of cheese and gravy over french fries.
I really like Victoria Gastro Pub's version, which starts with their tasty duck fat fries, which are then topped with duck confit (duck that's been immersed in herbs and seasonings and simmered in its own fat), Gruyere cheese, and duck gravy.
Despite the preponderance of the word in that description, this poutine doesn't taste like any duck I've had before and it's a sinful pleasure.
