Answer: Ah, Poutine. Sure, people try to imitate you all across Canada and in small pockets of the United States but nothing beats a poutine in your home province. There are, of course, fierce debates as to which establishment has the best poutine in La Belle Province and La Banquise always pops up as one of those places that has some of the best poutine in Quebec. I love La Banquise because it serves up some high quality poutine* at all hours of the night. The curds are pretty good and their many poutine combinations/types seem to work pretty well. You can have a classic poutine if you'd like or you can be adventurous and try poutines such as the Duleton (minced meat and onions), poutine galvaude (basically a Hot Chicken sandwich in the form of poutine) or the B.O.M. (bacon, onions and Merguez sausage... sort of like a heart attack waiting to happen). It's definitely not fine dining but after a night of drinking with friends, I don't think fancy food is what one craves. Last but not least, La Banquise is so cool that Omnikrom (and TTC) feature it heavily in the excellent "Danse la poutine". * - Just because we're in Quebec doesn't mean that there isn't any poor and disgusting poutine, either.

Answer: really cool hookah spot! It's not trendy or pretentious and you don't have to call 3 days ahead to get a table... which is handy because we're usually downtown in cute shoes before we figure out exactly what to do and where we're going. anyway, there's happy hour & cool people & and the food smelled DELICIOUS i vote go, early - late - & often

Answer:
We visited for the second time to give Brio a fair shot and it is simply overpriced for very little. I had a salmon dish where the veggies looked like they came out of a bag in the freezer aisle of a grocery store. The salmon and potatoes were good, but nothing I couldn't have made at home. My wife enjoyed her lasagna and thought it was good. We didn't order drinks, so when our bill came in at nearly $60 I almost couldn't believe it. I simply cannot recommend Brio when the food is simply ok or good but priced as if it is exceptional.
