في العدد 23 نوفمبر من نيويوركر مجلة, كالفين تريلين writes about “what may be, للأفضل أو أسوأ, كندا الطبق الوطني.”

He’s talking about poutine, a Quebecois creation of French fries topped with brown gravy and cheese curds.

It’s better than it sounds, particularly when you’re taking a break from the ski slopes or when you’ve got the late-night munchies (Trillin refers to poutine as a “beer sponge…”).

The article is available online only to magazine subscribers, ولكن يمكنك listen to a podcast with Trillin as he samples poutine in New York (نيويورك?!? كيف حول مونتريال, where of course there’s a website devoted to all things poutine?)

إذا كنت تستطيع قراءة الفرنسية, or if you just like to look at pictures, راجع MaPoutine.ca, which has photos and mini-reviews of poutine around the world — even in واغادوغو, Burkina-Faso (!). ويمكنك read our earlier poutine post here.
