In Chicago, right across from Millennium Park is a restaurant called
The Gage.
It's actually directly across the street, so close that you can see the park reflected in its front door. I had Googled "poutine in Chicago" and The Gage popped up with glowing reviews.
And they were all right! Elk ragout poutine, delicious, creamy gravy making the curds, still squeaky in their freshness, melt a bit, all served over very good fries.
Richard loved it...
...and so did I! It definitely rated 5 curds out of a possible 5! Yum!

how many curds did this one merit? :)
ReplyDeleteOK, Rouge. This is why you need categories. You can't just lump an elk ragout poutine with some freakin' chip shop up the line.
ReplyDeleteI think you need a difficulty factor and a performance, like in diving at the Olympics...
I've been to the Gage numerous times but I've never had the poutine. I'll be sure to try it next time!
