Nacho Grande Poutine

Poutine is a proud Canadian dish that combines all the heart-stopping power of melted cheese curds and gravy with healthy benefits of a plate of deep-fried potatoes. 

But even the deep-fried lovin' city of Toronto is not enough to contain the poutine army that smoke is building. With a few restaurant locations already operational and fleet of trucks planned across Canada and in the US it won't be long before Smoke is at Street corner near you. To say these guys are passionate about poutine would be an understatement. They care so much that they oversee several fields in PEI where they grow their own brand of "Smoke Potatoes".
