It is hard to beat the french fries, gravy and squeaky cheese. But if you want to try the ultimate version of Canada's comfort food, you'll want to take part in La Poutine Week 2021.

This year, the event celebrates its ninth year and will be happening from Monday, February 1, until Sunday, February 7.

According to co-founder Na'eem Adam, the event is to "support our restaurants by driving sales through a national platform that celebrates our most recognized and beloved dish." 

All the participating restaurants will serve their unique version of poutine, and you'll be able to vote online for your favourite.

Last year one of the vendors who won the public's choice award was Mukbang On Wheels for their Gangnam Style Poutine, with bulgogi marinated ground beef and fried kimchi.

We can't wait to see what new epic creations await this year!

To try some of the dishes for yourself, you'll be able to get your feast delivered to your door with SkiptheDishes or order take out.
