The festival features an experimental poutine contest; open to all, family activities, a poutine crawl, open mic for teenagers, francophone concerts & more!
Like the food itself, the festival is meant to celebrate the warm and flavourful Quebecois culture. It’s an all-ages excuse to hang out with some good people, relive some fond memories and indulge in some of the best comfort food this side of the Gatineau. Grab a napkin and a friend and come see what all the fuss is about!

Damnit I was hoping there would be a bunch of different vendors and a list of what they're making. I'd love some Montreal fois gras poutine with the fries cooked in duck fat.
I realize there's tasting but I'm sure that'll run out pretty quick and one can only eat so much free $20 poutine.

Both are on Commercial Drive and are about 4 blocks apart from each other.
I have posted pics from Brado's in the Food and Fine dining section somewhere...
