Poutine not Putin!

People say that you can't find good poutine outside of Quebec but while in Halifax I was determined to find the real deal. I did a quick computer search and jotted down the addresses of a few places I found online. On my first night in town I tried the poutine at a Alexandra's Pizza on Queen St. Instead of using curds they used mozzorella. Um hello those are Disco Fries! It seemed like everywhere I turned were signs that said 'Poutine with "real" curds'....meaning a blend of shredded cheese. On day two I decided to find a place I read about online called Bud the Spud. I found the truck parked in front of the public library. It seemed so promising. But once again no real curds. Across the way was another truck called Billy's.  Billy's had this sign on the truck...

Could it be the real deal? 

I think so. 

Yum. 

If you ever find yourself in Halifax go to Billy's truck on Spring Garden parked outside the library for real Poutine.
