Forgot to add my worst experience, the truly dreadful poutine at Greenpoint. This place is listed as Best of Cheap Eats in Montreal by seriouseats.com and Time Out online. Especially noted for the poutine, and despite a full menu of diner food, it seemed the only thing the kitchen was pumping out for the big crowd.
After a few bites, we threw the rest away. Salt overload, and the gravy drowned the already flabby fries into a wet gloppy mess. This is one of those historic crap food experiences that get touted because of the ambience of the place. So by all means pass by there and take a peek in but eat somewhere, anywhere, else.
