I wouldn’t say I did since I didn’t want to say it, but I can’t. I can say this im from Canada, and I went to Bangkok, a huge, sprawling city with a lot to do. Food consumes my being, and with this place checked and happily in my stomach, it made up for other dishes' downfalls.
Not the best poutine—first one I’ve seen outside of Canada with curds, none of that cheddar crap. Squeaky curds and gravy, which is not a mix of hot water and powder but extracted from meat drippings. The fries were fried, not frozen, and tasty, not heavy on the salt, thick-cut fries.
Leopold's back home has it all dialed in. All in all, poutine in Canada is pretty good and hard to mess up. The worst thing you can do is make a bad poutine deport them I say if they can’t get the classic Canadian dish down, wouldn’t you say, ehhhhh
Unless it’s some perogy or donair style, which does add to it when done right. Hard to have an edge on the competition. I rate this place an 8/10. Personally, I prefer fries a little crisper.
But one can only assume a Thai traveled to Canada, fell in love with the dish, and then wanted to share that back home. It’s really special, especially for myself, feeling homesick. Having a comfort dish, the best hungover food, is super cool!
(FYI) I also met some Canadians there, sharing stories across the world. With Chel jerseys around and surprisingly a lot of messages on the walls from Canadians from Montreal and Quebec. Special place in my heart, and I will come back for sure!!!
