D'Lish Curbside Bistro Food Truck, Truffle, Garlic and Herbs Poutine with Grated Parmesan
Truffle, Garlic and herbs Poutine with Grated Parmesan - $8

Let me get something off my chest, this is not a poutine. Poutine is a Canadian dish classically made with brown gravy and cheese curds. These are really truffle fries. Now that is out of the way, I have to say these are some great truffle fries. The fries are tossed in truffle oil, and a signature cilantro, garlic and thyme butter.  Top with lots of grated Parmesan cheese and serve with a side of some super garlicy garlic aioli.  I would normally turn my nose up a little at the crinkle cut food service fries, but here I think they are the perfect thing. The surface of the crinkle fries lets more of the tasty toppings adhere. I think the herb butter is a great idea too. Other truffle fries I've had have trouble with the Parmesan sticking, I guess truffle oil isn't all that sticky, but the butter holds on to the cheese and herbs. The lot stays crispy too and doesn't get soggy (which is a problem with real poutine). Synopsis: Love'em, just don't call them a poutine.
