Poutine Quebec meals in the United States?

A poutine is a french fry, that's been topped with cheese curds, and then a chicken gravy has been poured over top. It melts the cheese and gets all gooey and wonderful. People here in Quebec often refer to it as a heart attack in a bowl.

The closest thing to this in USA I would say was the Taco Bell cheese fries. But they use chili or salsa instead of gravy, and their cheese is more like Velveeta. It does not have that mozzarella like texture that the cheese curds have.

By the way, there are many restaurants in Montreal making variations of the poutine you can try. Here's the menu from the famous Banquise restaurant in Montreal.

If you are looking for poutines in USA, best places to try are upstate New York and Vermont, or down in Florida where all the Canadian "snowbirds" hang out during the cold winter months.

Some places in the USA have poutine, but, they make it differently, with all sorts of odd additions. It is rare there though.

Poutine is served in some U.S. diners; usually those close to the Canadian border. I just make it at home.

It originates from Canada, I believe, though I think they sell it in the US.

I read about a place in New York city that serves it. Google shows there are at least six of them in NYC. The US is a big place. I suggest asking about specific cities.

poutine is almost unknown in America. maybe a few places in the NE corner of Vermont

We live in the South USA and we make it at home.
